What if the life you’ve been building was shaped by old survival rules that no longer fit?
We sit down with transformational guide Alicia to unpack how early conditioning, fear-based religion, and cultural pressure nudge women into people-pleasing, chronic overgiving, and burnout—and how to trade that fatigue for embodied leadership rooted in faith, truth, and nervous system safety.
Alicia shares her journey from strict religious upbringing to rebellion, divorce, and the relentless hustle that never delivered peace. She explains why many high achievers feel empty despite outward success: unresolved inner-child wounds drive self-sabotage in money, status, and relationships because worth has been tied to approval.
We explore practical healing tools—inner child work, breathwork, meditation, and reparenting your nervous system—so your body can feel safe without overfunctioning. As safety grows, honest inventory becomes possible: which beliefs formed you, which still serve, and which need to end.
If you’re ready to stop earning your worth and start living from it, this conversation will meet you where you are and hand you the tools to move forward. Subscribe, share this with a friend who overgives, and leave a review to tell us the belief you’re ready to rewrite. Your purpose isn’t missing—it’s waiting beneath the noise.

Transcript:
If you’ve ever struggled with fear, doubt, or worry and wondering what your true purpose was all about, then this podcast is for you. In this show, your host, Sylvia Warsham, will interview elite experts and ordinary people that have created extraordinary lives. So here’s your host, Sylvia Warsham.
Hey Brandhost, it’s Sylvia Warsham. Welcome to Release Out Reveal Purpose. And today’s Alicia Faircelly. When I read her profile on podmatch.com, I was blown away. She was one of those people that gives a lot of detail into what she wants to talk about. And I love that about people because it shows there’s some thoughtfulness, some purpose behind what they do. It’s highly rooted in them. And she talked a lot about embodied leadership. And I thought, what is that? And as I read further, it was the concept of self-sacrifice. And I know that for women listening to this podcast, you know you and I both know what self-sacrifice is because we are the nurturers. We’re the ones that step in and make sure that everyone is taken care of. But when we do that, sometimes we we overgive, we overshoot, and we completely take ourselves out of the equation of what we need to do for ourselves to bring us back into balance. Because sometimes when we’re in survival mode, and Alicia will talk a lot about when she was a single mom, you kick yourself into that mode because you have to, right? It’s the term of events in your life, circumstances that put you in certain situations. I know I’ve been in that situation myself. When my first husband asked for a divorce and I had a young son to raise, and you feel the responsibility is heavily on your shoulders to bring everybody up to speed, and then you forget about you as a woman. And that’s not a way to live because when we forget about ourselves, if we don’t take care of ourselves as women, we cannot nurture and take care of others in the way that we want to show up in life. So without further ado, Alicia, thank you so much for joining us on release to have revealed purpose.
Thank you for having me on here. I’m really excited about this topic in our conversation. And I just I get chills when I talk, think about all the women out there that are working so hard to be perfect and to just be the most best version they are for themselves, but they don’t take that time to to really want to grasp into what they their desires and their needs. They’re looking at everyone else. So I think this is such a a huge need um for women, particularly. And there are men out there to do the same as well, but for human beings in particular to really come into that portion of themselves.
And as you talk, and as I spoke earlier, I felt the Holy Spirit’s presence. So I know there’s someone on the other side of this podcast that really needs to hear what Alicia has to share because her story is powerful. So without further ado, Alicia, take us on your story of transformation. How did you land in this space of talking about self-sacrifice, talking about the embodied leadership?
Yeah, so I believe I’m hubilar what we’re born into defines our stories. So I was born into a super strict religious um family. My dad was a preacher in this particular quote denomination, but it was very fear-based, very hellfire, damnation, fear-based. Um, but it wasn’t to me a the truth of who we are inside. So imagine I was born into that from my mother’s womb in, because you get so much science behind, we absorb in our mother’s emotions, and it like really alters our DNA from our parent our parents’ emotions. So born into that, and just this very timid, shy, but very nervous energy child in a way, but I was just not just never felt really content and happy. Um I never I never felt um safe, we’ll put it that way, emotionally safe. I was very physically safe, and I knew that protection that protection with me, but being born into that and just the control manipulation that went on um with my father throughout my entire childhood into dollars now, um really paved that path for me to not put myself first. It was always putting other people first and walking on eggshells and making sure that other people were happy. And if they weren’t happy, somehow it was my fault and my responsibility to make them happy. So moving into um, I was saying moving into probably the teen or the teenage years, the early to mid-teenage years, super rebellious because I was very angry. I didn’t feel the love that I needed as this child. And so after doing a lot of inner child work throughout myself, and I actually work with clients on that too, is I started to develop, figure out that my little Alicia was was really, really, really upset and angry and didn’t feel again the safety that comes in with it. So I brought her all the way into my adulthood, um, got married, had children, got divorced um right before I turned 30, because I hit 30 and I was like, this is not the marriage I wanted to be in. This is not my direction I wanted to be in, but I didn’t know intuitively I was being led into things that were gonna make just um make make some beautiful things in my life. So that’s where the single motherhood really started, was that that particular area of my time. And I didn’t realize that having all this little um inner child trauma and all the other things going on was going to create this friction inside of my life and within me trying to teach and raise children the way my parents raised, but I knew and knew intuitively that this was not the correct way because I was not happy. So about the age of 36, I had what I call a not a midlife crisis or basically nervous breakdown and just told like looked up to God or whatever you want to call it, call him God. This I can’t live like this anymore. You either like I’m either ready for my life to be done or I’m ready to for some changes. And luckily that was the answer before of it, or they was like, Yes, okay, it’s time for you to move into to bigger things. So that’s really kind of where my self-hel self-help led, self-led journey. I started diving, digging bigger into things, into things, and just kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger. Um, I was in real estate, I think I was a vent plane and event planning, owned multiple businesses. It was up and down, up and down, up and down. I would work, work, work, work, work, hustle so hard, burn out. Because I was not trying to trying to do something with them myself or my given gifts or anything like that. It was because I was trying to please everyone else. I was trying to make them proud of me because if I made them proud of me and they looked at me a certain way, then therefore I must be worthy. If I had a certain car, a certain house, I had a certain thing, if I had certain friends, if I had certain status in my social groups, I would be worthy. If I had it, all the things I was looking for was not my self-worth. Because I would achieve that, I would make money, then I would lose money. I would make money and lose money. And it’s almost a self-sabotaging thing going on over and over and over again because I didn’t feel worthy of keeping it. I didn’t feel worthy of keeping the friendships, I didn’t feel worthy of good quality friendships that I have now. It was all superficial stuff going on because I was blocking out my feelings from that inner child. I didn’t want to deal with that. So as I started to peel those little layers off, as I call it, and started to work into each little thing, then I started to notice things a little differently. My perspective started to change, started to see the world differently. And then about I would say four years later, four years later, this little term inner child, I was like, okay, I’m feeling really good. I’d hired a coach 90 days later, she would work some energetic stuff on me. We’re I was feeling really good, but I was like, there’s still something missing. Like, of course, we’re not, I don’t think we’re ever arrived at this because we’re humans and a human experience here. However, I got to that point and I was it was like there’s something missing. The inner child kept popping up inner child, inner child, inner child work. So I started going down that work and started going into the inner child work and started to heal that. And so as I started to heal that, I realized my clients needed that as well, too. So I started adding on more modalities, um, breath work, meditation throughout that, um, then started working inner child work and really weaving all that into to helping other women. And I work with some men, a few select men as well, too. A lot of high entrepreneurs that they have everything that they want on the surface level, but they’re not happy. And they’re sacrificing, and it’s so surprising to me is I think I see this with single mothers too, but I see this also with with married. I’m happily married now, have been for um three years, like how long? Three years, yeah. Yeah, we’ve been together for almost 10 years, and so I I see I see the fact that I can’t rely on my happiness with support with my husband can’t give that to me. And so I see that happening with with women who are in partnership one way or the other, is they’re still they’re still trying to please, they’re still sacrificing things for them, and it may not just be their kids, it’s for their spouses, it’s for their their bosses or for their employees, they’re always they’re always sacrificing something. And until we realize that our cop cannot, I’ve got a bottle here, which is like full. So if you have this much right here, full, and you I have this much more to give, right? But that’s not enough to give myself. So I have to fill this little bottle all the way up to where it’s spewing out. And so we’re taught that this is what you have to give, and this is what you should give. And if you don’t give this, you’re guilty. You’re ashamed if you don’t give away this. But then this happened, you have nothing to drink and you’re thirsty. And you can’t give on, you cannot give full. So what we’re really taught, supposed to be taught, is this is supposed to be completely full over, and what’s overfilling is what you give, because we should come with a complete centered heart. And that’s what heartfelt giving and heartfelt love is. We’re told to love other people. We’re taught, oh, you’re supposed to love, or you’re supposed to receive in love, but nobody you can’t receive in love if you’re continuously drying yourself down. And so that was such a huge revelation to me. It’s like I’m allowed to give myself this, I’m allowed, I’m allowed to take care of myself. And it feels really good now. Now, our nervous systems don’t agree with it at times. I do a lot of nervous systemic work too. Our nervous systems are still in fight, flight, freeze mode. They were, I mean, I think most of us were born to and that’s the way we were born into, and of course, we have not worked worked out our our nervous system issues. Most of us haven’t. Most people haven’t. And so once when that goes on, and so when your body, your mind, you’re telling you, Oh, I can be full, but your your body’s saying, No, this doesn’t feel right because I’m so used to the anxiety that comes with with getting not having enough. You know, I’m giving too much and I’m not having enough for me. I’m used to the anxiety, that’s normal. And so our brain starts to go back forth through it, and so we have to learn to, it’s almost a mind-body-spirit thing that we have going on that we have to heal around this particular issue. We have to start by calming, by acknowledging that the issue that this cup needs to be full. Then we need to allow our brains to have their moments and process those emotions, but come back and almost reparent a brain and say, no, it’s okay, it’s safe. It’s okay, it’s safe. It’s okay, it’s safe. And coming in, then our our bodies will start to. And we have to, it’s kind of a balanced thing here. And of course, when that happens, your spirit’s gonna fly and be soul happy. And so that that’s where the joy comes in with it.
So I know there’s long analogy there, but no, it’s awesome because as you were speaking, it is the concept that God gave me as I was writing the first book in faith, uh, the first edition of In Faith I Thrive that released last year. And I found it so interesting the parallels in what you were discussing, the ego, the soul, and the spirit, which is what the three themes coming out of my in my book. The first six chapters discusses the ego. Now, the ego is not a bad thing. What happens when things happen to us when we’re little is that we form belief systems that then kind of drive our actions and our results in life. And when we have these situations occur, we have an invitation by God to look at our how we landed in this space to say, this isn’t who I created you to be. Uh-uh. This is your soul identity kind of coming in, that intuition that kicks in that says, This isn’t where you want to go. This is not where you’re gonna find your happiness. You’re doing something that you’re you’ve programmed your mind to do for so long that’s gotten you here. Now we need to dismantle that. And how we do that is we we got to go back to those chapters to look what happened. And a lot of people are not like you and I, Alicia, that will jump in there and actually roll up their sleeves and do the work because they’re afraid. They’re afraid of what they’re gonna find. And I’ve seen so many people, I so many girlfriends of mine that I hear them say, I don’t have time for that. But you have time to make all these mistakes and pay the consequences of those mistakes over and over and over, or your children pay for those consequences of those mistakes and and suffer years and years. You have time for that, but you don’t have time to roll up your sleeves and and listen to what God is asking you to do because he wants to restore you back to the person he created you to be. Right, that’s what he’s wanting to do, truly. And he wants to give you the joy and the happiness that you’re seeking, and it’s not found in the material things. You and I have already figured that one out. Yeah, we’ve been through that life, we’ve seen what overworked, because I came from the corporate environment. Because I grew up in a my father was a doctor and he was an immigrant in this country, and if you didn’t sacrifice and be successful, you weren’t successful, period, right? And that was a concept, and my mother being from the Mexican culture as well, the belief that trickled down generation to generation was you must sacrifice something in order to have it all. That’s a lie. You don’t you don’t have to sacrifice anything, you just have to simply balance everything. And there are what balance means to you means totally something totally different to the next human being. So they really can’t come in and say, okay, this is the cookie-cutter way of doing things. No, no, no, this isn’t it, it doesn’t work that way, you know. My journey is set up perfectly for me by God, perfectly in his perfect timing and his perfect way. I may not agree with it because my ego is gonna disagree with my soul a lot, and it’s gonna be a battle, like an internal battle happening, which is what I heard you kind of discuss as you were talking. And it’s when we surrender this other mess, like the outside world, and we just tune in to that intuition to what God is prompting us to do, everything falls into place beautifully. But we have to let go, and that’s the trick that I think that trumps everybody. Nobody wants to let go of that control because they think that if they do, everything’s gonna fall apart, they’re gonna fall apart.
Yep.
No, no, no, that’s what falls everything into place when you let go and you surrender and you say, Okay, well, let me do this a little differently because the way I’ve been doing it and the miserable way that I’ve been going about doing things, that that doesn’t seem to give me what I want. You know, so why do I want to keep doing that over and over and over again, right? It’s that whole enlisting programming, they call it uh avoiding pain. You’re either avoiding pain or you’re moving towards pleasure. Well, moving towards pleasure is gonna require a couple of things. Going back in time, reflecting, and finding out what those triggers, belief systems, patterns along the way you’ve programmed your mind to be. Yeah, and once you take an inventory of that loveliness, then you can say, okay, um, that doesn’t fit. That doesn’t fit. That what fits? What do you need to start, stop, and continue doing? To then say, okay, now from this beautiful space, present moment, Alicia or Sylvia, now what is it that who was I supposed to be before all this crap happened? You know, and then that’s when that’s when you really need to start turning inward. That intuition kicks in. Because when you invite God into the mix, He does what most human beings deem impossible. Yeah, you look at the mountain, you’re like, I can’t scale that. Of course you can’t, not alone you can’t. I mean, you can, it’s gonna take you forever, though, to scale that mountain. But when you invite God into it, or your intuition, or whatever you want to call it, universe, we’re all seeking the same thing, we’re all seeking uh purpose, we’re all seeking help from above us, like something humanly what we think possible. So there’s somebody else that comes in. Well, you and I, you were raised by a preacher, and you experienced religion trauma. Yeah, I did too in my first marriage. I would go to Catholic church and he would pretend to be this loving, amazing husband in public, and then the minute he stepped out of that church, it was like a whole different personality would emerge. And I would see that with the people in the church, and I unfortunately blame God for the hypocrisy I experienced in the Catholic Church, yeah, and the rule following and the you’re gonna go to hell if you don’t do X, Y, or Z.
Right.
Well, when I started to read his word and look at his actual character, that didn’t align with what I had been taught in that religion. So when I finally got when he asked for the divorce and I stepped out of there, I was like my soul felt the pull to connect to him directly, not to go through a priest, not to go to anybody else, but to just connect with him directly. I started to do that in my writing. So, like you I kind of took a different path, but it it led me to the path we’re both on, which is to help people heal. I mean, that is really what we’re aiming for, is to help them heal so that they don’t have to go through all the stuff we went through, yeah. And take as long as we took, because sometimes you went through your rebellious years. How many years did that happen, right? And I mean, my turn decades. I just turned 51 last week, and I’m like, geez, Louie. I mean, this could have taken so little time, but I was a stubborn child of God, and I I was so angry in the first act of my life, and I like you, I just kind of fell into these traps that were never meant for me in the first place. Yeah, meant for that to happen, but God in his wisdom uses our choices, and he just kind of okay, you made that choice. Let me see, let me work with that choice now. Let’s redirect you again, and he’ll prompt you again. And sometimes we listen and sometimes we don’t. And when we don’t, here we go again. It’s like brother saying, Okay, child, I I have patience, I have infinite patience. Let’s see when you turn to me again.
And so they’re just sometimes I felt like the universe just laughing. He was like, all right, we gotta do it again.
We’re gonna do this again. Okay. I I love you and I want you to feel whole and I w want to restore you and I’ll wait for you. But just invite me. And when you invite him, it really I mean, for me, this morning I sat in prayer and there was a prompting that said what talk to your talk to God about your troubles. And I tried to think of one trouble I currently have in my life and I couldn’t think of one. And I thought to myself, wow, that’s amazing how my mind has shifted from from I could name all the negative things in my life very quickly to I can’t think of one this morning, and it’s not brain fog. That was not brain fog. I was like nicely looking for a trouble that I could not do because I invite him in everything. I’m at a stage in my life now that he has asked me to submit to my marriage the way I’ve submitted to him. The only thing really, the stronghold that’s really messing with me right now is my pride, my lack of humility. So I’m testing that one out, you know, because when you ask for forgiveness of people you’ve hurt in the past, that takes a level of humility. And because they’re not always going to be very accepting of that apology, they’re gonna be angry at times because they’re not where you’re at right now in your relationship with him. So sometimes that patience of mine, like impatience, kicks in because I almost like, hey, I’m offering you an olive branch. Like, why can’t you be kind and offer that doesn’t work?
So on them though. I mean, that’s totally on them. That’s just a mirror back to what they need to work on with ourselves. So it’s well, we learn to take that off of we learn to take that stuff in personal and we learn to let the guilt go and let the shame go from ourselves and to have a grace that with ourselves, and with it automatically starts to flow out to other people.
Yes, and I loved your analogy with a bottle. Now, for those that can’t see because you’re audio, right, and Apple Podcasts, she held up a bottled water with like not even a quarter of it, right? And we oftentimes get shamed into believing that if you don’t give that away, then you’re a horrible person. You’re guilty. You and I both know that that is those are lies that religions sometimes throw on us because of their own lens. This is not representative of who God is and his character. When you read his word and you actually use your head and use your heart to connect to him, he will show you the truth of his word. And as you read it, you realize that’s all lies from humans, that from their own lens of scarcity. That’s a scarcity mindset. And what that means is that, you know, they go in search of all these achievements, thinking that these achievements are gonna fill them with the happiness that they’re seeking. That is simply not true. The happiness lies within us, it’s already been inside of us. We’ve been programmed with it. God created us to have happiness in Him, in identity with Him. He’s the one that provides that joy and that presence that we’re seeking in our lives. Nothing, zero outside of ourselves, no job, no person, no material thing will ever give you that. Ever. And you will go on this search forever. And you’ve seen the interviews of these guys who were millionaires, like Steve Jobs talked about this. He had no faith. None. He didn’t, he was an atheist, and he went through life like achieving. And at the end of his life, look how he died and the lessons he left us with. And one of them was you’re not gonna find it, you’re gonna find it in the love in your life. So the concept, Alicia, that you were talking about about loving unconditionally, is coming from the overflow we feel from Christ, and from that overflow, we are able to just give and give and give because everything we’ve been given, we must give to the world. It is a gift we give, we receive and we give back to humanity. That’s why you’re doing what you’re doing, because yeah, this is what you have received from him, this overflow. And in that overflow, then everything really there’s a balance to things, you know. You bring in, you know, who you are from the feminine perspective, and then who you are from the masculine perspective. Come a single man, you get put in these situations, yeah, but that doesn’t mean you get to stay there. You don’t have to stay there, right? Yeah, if that’s giving you happiness, by all means stay there. But if it’s not, then kind of listen to what two women who have been through it don’t you know.
Check yourself, you know, not that not that harshly, but go back and really get, I mean, we have to get really we have to get so honest with ourselves because we lie to ourselves all day long. I’m happy, I’m okay, it’s okay this happened, it’s okay. Someone did it. Like, you have to be honest with yourself and honest with other people. I mean, honesty is so important to that. And it’s we’ve been taught like honesty will get you in trouble. Honesty will get you people not liking you. Honesty gets you the truth, which sets you free. I mean, that’s literally a passage in the Bible. The truth will set you free. That’s what it is.
You being you’re being honest with yourself, and love rejoices in the truth. That’s from 1 Corinthians, like love is patient, love is kind. Love rejoices in the truth. And what is the truth about your life? You gotta sit down with it and allow your feelings to surface. Don’t be afraid of those feelings. Those feelings actually give you a lot of clues into the state of your mind and the state of your affairs and why you have certain results in your life. And if you don’t want those results, you gotta do something different. You can’t keep doing the same cyclical stuff you’ve been doing, thinking it’s going to change. It’s not. You’re gonna, if you don’t learn the lesson that God is trying to teach you through that circumstance, it’s gonna keep coming back, though, because He wants to prepare you, He’s not gonna let you hang out to dry with no skill sets that’s gonna help you through that piece. That doesn’t make sense. That is not the type of God that we’ve experienced, Alicia and I. Our egos tried to tell us otherwise. The trap we fell into was thinking that God represented those that hypocrisy we experienced ourselves and that trauma. That’s not that’s not God at all. And when Christ came on earth, he actually showed us what unconditional love looked like. Like when as he’s on the cross, he’s having been betrayed by his best friends. These people were part of his ministry for the last three years. They they slept together, they ate together, they prayed together. I mean, do you imagine spending that much time with someone and then those very people betraying you and then having the love and the forgiveness to say, I forgive you? Like forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do. He forgave Judas, he forgave Peter, his best friend. Yeah, you know, if he can do that, what’s our excuse? Like, seriously, he experienced everything that human beings experienced on earth, and worse yet. And then he gave us the freedom that we’re that we seek here on earth. He gave it to us by saying, Go ahead and live your life now. Just invite me. I’m your parent. I just want to make sure that you’re equipped, just like we’re parents and mine. We want my kids to make sure that before they get behind the wheel, they know how to drive. That’s all that’s all God is trying to help us with is okay, you want to do this and that? Great, I love you, I will support you. But first, you need to learn these skill sets, and the only way for you to do that is to go through these things. So please learn the lesson because I don’t want to keep teaching you this lesson. This is really hard on him. Like for me, the lesson to be taught was to surrender. Yeah, the only way I learned it, Alicia, was nearly dying. It was like, okay, I guess you didn’t listen to me the first hundred times to try to reach out to you. So I’m gonna use one of your choices, Sylvia. Your choice of taking breast control pills. Okay, you’re not, you know, like that. You know the fine print. You came from the pharmaceutical world, right? You should know this over the age of 35. Your risk of pulmonary embolism quadruples, right? You take these things, but I did it anyways because I was dating my second husband, and like a good Mexican girl, I didn’t want to get pregnant. Well, that was the least of my problems because then I was like, okay, here we go. I got pulmonary embolisms, I got Bud Curry syndrome. For those that don’t know, Bud Curry is a major um syndrome that occurs when a bucot blocks your vena cava and puts pressure on your liver, and you can basically go into acute liver failure. So I was facing all of that. And as six doctors walked into my hospital room, medical science was not confident I was gonna survive the night. It was Easter weekend of 2012, so I thought that was so terrible. I was like, really? Your timing is hilarious. This is like when you’re actually on the cross. You’re telling me to die to my old self so that I can become the person that I that you created me to be. You’re so funny. And so this is Saturday and Easter Sunday morning, which is resurrection day for the Christians, is when he decided to show up in the ICU and tell me you’re gonna be okay. I just need you to understand that this is not who I created you to be. All right, do I have your attention now? And I was like, Yes, you don’t need to do this again. I will never do this again to myself. And but the full surrender of it was to surrender to the life I was created to be, the person without all this other junk layered on top. So, you know, we’ve said so much between you and I. We’ve shared so much wisdom. I’m sure they’re gonna have a field day unpacking this interview when they hear it. Any last-minute uh words of encouragement and do tell us, Alicia, how we can reach you so that if anybody wants to work with you, they can.
Um, so you can reach me. I’ll go ahead and my website, Aliciafaraselli.com. But I have a program for women specifically called Frequency of Her. And you could go to frequencyofher.com. There’s several things that I’m outlining, I’m developing over the course of the year. Um, so there’ll be more stuff added to that as well. Too. I want to leave, I feel it was called to me is we have this thing of forgiveness that’s in our hearts, right? We’re supposed to forgive. And what I I’ve truly come to, it was really it’s really hard to forgive somebody who’s done something really horrible to you. But the thing about forgiveness is we’re taught that we have to forgive and let them continue. Forgive and let them continue over and over again. Forgiveness is nothing more than releasing those I call energetic ties to someone. You say, I forgive, and this is no longer my story. I no longer allow them to have the control over my story and make me a victim of the situation. Forgiveness is for you. Forgiveness is it obviously is for the other person too in certain ways, but you don’t have to even tell the person you forgave them. You can do it in your heart, you can do it silently. You can that forgiveness portion, and when we realize that forgiveness is strictly for you and it’s not to give them any more power or to give them any more freedom, and it’s absolutely not saying what they did was right at all. You can still carry that with you and you can cut those ties, whatever. But you have to learn forgiveness for yourself, and I think that’s such a huge thing. Um that we all need to to really check in with ourselves, you know. Are we holding grudges against people? Because when we’re holding grudges against people, we’re allowing them to take our power away from us. We’re allowing that cup to again to deplete. They’re they’re they’re taking, they’re stealing that that joy from you. And who wants that? You don’t want people who have did things to you that are not right in your mind. I mean, all perception, in your perception, to take that power away from you. So to me, that’s the first thing in calling your power back is just to release and forgive. And that’s again what we talked before for surrendering into you. You gotta surrender it. Surrender that forgiveness and just know that it’s for your best, it’s for you selfishly. If it feels selfishly, let it let it feel selfish because it is. You’re allowed to feel selfish on this.
