In The Name of God
Good Christian Girl conditioning teaches us to abandon ourselves in the name of God.
Then it shows up in our daily lives like:
>> Not knowing, meeting or voicing your own needs
>> Silencing your beliefs and pretending you agree instead of using your voice and taking a stand
>> Overgiving to others and then feeling resentful of your overgiving
>> Shrinking yourself down instead of shining bright
>> Adopting perfectionistic personas like the Good Christian Girl - like during the holiday season with your family - so that you become who you think “they” want you to be
>> Burning yourself out in eternal service to the wants and needs of others
And maybe you’re not like this all the time, maybe in certain situations, areas of your life or relationships.. but still:
This is abandonment of self in the name of God which creates religious trauma.
(because we are taught that “God” wants us to abandon ourselves, we are doing it “for God” instead of knowing this is toxic man-constructed theology)
This is not of God.
This is evil.
This is control.
The truth is, as the designer of self, God never needed you to abandon yourself in the first place.
(But that’s a whole other topic)

We often fool ourselves into thinking that if I hand you my authenticity, then you’ll hand me your love, approval, acceptance.
It’s not a fair trade.
It’s a trade you never win.
And it’s a trade that you don’t have to make.
You were taught to abandon yourself. To be nice and perfect and compliant.. to put on a happy face no matter what..
But you have adopted this as your own pattern..
A pattern you continue now, doing this to yourself, without the aid of your original perpetrators
Because the pattern is entrenched in your subconscious mind.
This means that you can quit beating yourself up
This means it’s not something you can’t just easily switch off or think your way through, it’s something you need to shift through embodying a new way of BEING.
This is Subconscious Sovereignty?.
Because if we want lives where we are sovereign, we must first reclaim the sovereignty we have been given INTERNALLY so that it overflows from there.
This is where we see big shifts in voice, vibrance and influence as female leaders, because of the EXTERNAL overflow from what has already shifted internally.
I have designed a free PDF guidebook that does a deep dive on this + an energy audit so you can identify where your exact sovereignty drains are + the pathway to freedom so you can reclaim your voice, sovereignty and authenticity and live the wildly impactful life you’re born for, yesterday.
