Coming home to yourself is. || ⇢ WATCH ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBBTohmEUSo Monica's been a leader in the trauma healing and feminine/masculine embodiment industry for 10 years now, and in that time, she’s watched so many people get stuck on the hamster wheel of personal development. In this episode, she calls out the harm caused by this need to always improve yourself, and describes what the actual end goal of “doing the work” is, because it’s not what you may think it is. She also gets into: ✨ Why people who are “always doing the work” are the least at peace ✨ Why awareness does NOT equal healing ✨ Her signature H.E.R.
