The Season of Self Love

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Monday morning, I sat down to record about fear — your guardian, real danger versus imagined danger — and fear showed up so loud I couldn't finish. My shoulders tightened, my throat closed, my breath got shallow, and I heard my guardian say: if you teach this, people will see you're scared and won't believe you. So I stopped recording and went to my altar for answers. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly what happened next — the three cards that fell out when I shuffled and prayed, and the three exercises they revealed: stopping assumptions to make your word impeccable, understanding that your words are spells you cast on yourself and others, and the freeing truth that everyone is living in their own dream. I close with a real, unscripted fear inventory and a master commitment I want you to write and say out loud with me. This is Season 5 in action — not teaching from a safe distance, but teaching while living it. We talk about: What happened when fear showed up mid-recording and why I had to stopThe three-card message from my altar (Four Agreements cards, chakra cards, and prayer)Exercise 1: Stopping assumptions to make your word impeccableExercise 2: Your word as a spell — what fear was saying to me, and the spell I chose insteadExercise 3: Everyone is in their own dream — releasing the fear of judgmentThe fear inventory exercise, from your real, current place — not theoryThe master commitment: "I will not let fear silence me"If you've ever frozen up right when you were about to teach, lead, or show up as yourself, this episode is proof that showing up scared and doing it anyway is the real work. In This Episode Grounding practice — "My word is my power. Fear tried to silence me, but I speak anyway."What happened Monday morning — fear showing up in real time while recordingThe altar moment — three cards, three messagesExercise 1: Stop the assumptions, make your word impeccableExercise 2: Your word is a spell — naming fear's spell and choosing your ownExercise 3: People are in their own dream — releasing the fear of judgmentFear inventory — bracing, assumptions, spells, and what you choose insteadThe master commitment — "Starting today, I speak."Closing affirmations — "I cast my own spell. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am unstoppable."Resources & Links 🌸 Labor Day Sale — 20% off your first-time subscription, September 1–13 only: elevatemenyomi.com 🌸 Start your self-love journey today — 7 days free on Elevate Me: studio.com/nyomi or elevatemenyomi.com 📺 The Season of Self Love is now on YouTube — subscribe for behind-the-scenes content and Flashback Fridays 📩 Something in today's episode hit home?

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Fear isn't the problem — your body needs fear. It's kept you alive since the day you were born. But what happens when fear stops protecting you and starts controlling you? That's when protection becomes a prison. This month, we're breaking free. In this episode, I kick off September's series, Faith vs. Fear, by breaking down exactly how fear works inside you: the internal "guardian" whose only job is danger-protect, why it can't tell the difference between a real threat and an imagined one, and how your past becomes your present through pattern matching. I get personal about how this shows up for me right now — heading into a new chapter, a new birthday, new people, new opportunities — and why living in constant protection mode leaves you exhausted, defended, and unable to rest, trust, connect, or feel joy. The good news: your guardian learned fear, which means it can learn safety too. That's September's work. We talk about: Why fear is a survival mechanism, not a weaknessReal danger vs. imagined danger, and why your body responds to both the same wayHow your "internal guardian" records past hurt and scans for matching patternsWhy fear becomes your default after real betrayal or traumaThe cost of living in survival mode — and why you can't rest, trust, or feel joy thereHow to start teaching your guardian safetyWhat's ahead this month: recognizing triggers, rewiring through repetition, and building evidence of safetyIf you've ever wondered why you're always scanning for danger even when you're safe, this episode explains exactly what's happening in your body — and how to start changing it. In This Episode Grounding practice — "Fear, I see you. I take back my power."Fear as a survival mechanism — why your body needs itMeet your internal guardian — the alarm system with one job: danger, protectReal danger vs. imagined danger — why your body can't tell the differenceHow your past becomes your present — pattern matching and triggered guardiansThe cost of living in protection mode — can't rest, trust, connect, or feel joySponsor break — Elevate Me's Labor Day SaleTeaching your guardian safety — why it takes consistency and repetitionThis month's roadmap — recognizing triggers, rewiring, building evidence of safetyClosing affirmations — "I don't live in survival mode anymore.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me On Monday, I told you fear came back — loud. Today I'm giving you the actual tools for what to do when that happens, because fear will return. That's not the problem. What you do with it is everything. In this episode, I walk you through the exact practice I used this week to move through fear instead of bypassing it: how to recognize fear's return, how to meditate with intention instead of just checking a box, a three-day feeling journal with prompts to get underneath fear's story, and the "three-try commitment" — using my candle that took three tries to light as a metaphor for trying anyway. I also open the door into September's theme: faith versus fear, and give you the reflection questions to start preparing now. We talk about: Why fear returning isn't failure — unconsciousness isHow to recognize the signs: drained energy, doubt, numbness, feeling stuckA 5-step process for naming, tracing, and writing through fear as it shows upMeditating with intention: what to ask before, during, and afterA 3-day feeling journal practice with prompts to find the truth under fear's storyThe three-try commitment exercise — trying anyway, adjusting, and lighting it anywayPrepping for September: Faith vs. FearIf Monday's episode hit home and you're ready for the practical tools to actually work through what came up, this episode is for you.

I don't run from you."Recognizing fear's return — the signs: drained, stuck, doubtful, numbExercise 1: Name it, trace it, write it — a 5-step process for meeting fear as informationExercise 2: Meditation with intention — meeting the feeling instead of making it go awayExercise 3: The 3-day feeling journal — prompts to uncover fear's story and the truth beneath itExercise 4: The three-try commitment — using the candle metaphor to commit to trying anywayExercise 5: Preparing for September's series — Faith vs. Fear, and writing your September intentionClosing affirmations — "Fear returns.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me I came back from vacation proud — 30 Hard complete, explant anniversary celebrated, the documentary released, Patreon launched. I thought I'd done the work. Then fear came back, bigger and louder than before, and I almost missed it because I was too busy thinking I was past it. In this episode, I get real about what happened when I sat at my altar the Wednesday after vacation and felt a wave of fear and doubt I couldn't explain — and why that moment became the start of a deeper lesson than the 30 Hard ever taught me. I talk about the difference between meditating to escape and meditating with intention, what it means to be "mechanical" in your spiritual practice versus truly present in it, and the candle that took three tries to light and what it revealed about my foundation being tested. This episode kicks off next month's series on fear versus faith, and it's a reminder that fear returning isn't failure — it's growth. We talk about: What happened when fear showed up unexpectedly after a season of big winsThe difference between spiritual bypassing and doing the real workMeditating with intention to understand, not to escapeThe three-try candle and what each attempt revealedWhy feeling drained after big work is a sign of growth, not failureWhat it means to be a warrior with fear, not past itIf you've ever done the work, felt proud of your growth, and then had fear knock you right back down — this episode is for you. In This Episode Grounding practice — breath and affirmation: "I feel fear. I don't let it stop me."Coming back from vacation "fixed" — and why fear returned anywayThe altar moment — sitting with unexplained fear and doubtSpiritual bypassing vs. the real work — meditating with intention instead of checking a boxThe three-try candle — foundation, fear, doubt, and lighting it anywayLiving Embodied — feeling fear, sitting with it, asking what it's protecting you from, and moving anywayIntroducing next month's series: Fear vs. FaithClosing affirmations — "I am not past fear.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Thirty days ago, I started the 30 Hard thinking it was about discipline — pushing my body, checking boxes, staying consistent. Four days after completing it, I'm sitting with the real lesson: it was never about discipline at all. It was about listening. In this episode, I break down what 30 days of daily meditation, movement, altar work, learning, and nutrition actually taught me — starting with a dream that sent excruciating pain through my right ear and led me to a message at my altar: trust what you know and stop making yourself prove it to yourself. I share the four biggest lessons from the challenge, why my body "said no" on days 13 and 14 and what that taught me about listening instead of pushing, and how I almost let the busyness of new opportunities cause me to miss celebrating my own one-year post-explant anniversary. This one is about trusting your inner knowing over proving your worth. We talk about: Why the 30 Hard was a container for spiritual work, not a fitness challengeThe dream and the altar message that changed everything mid-challengeFour lessons: spiritual connection over physical strength, listening to your body, decoding dream language, and how consistency (not perfection) creates spiritual spaceWhy she almost missed celebrating her own one-year explant anniversary in the middle of the challengeClosing affirmations on trusting your inner knowing as your greatest teacherIf you've ever finished a challenge — a 30 Hard, a 75 Hard, a 7-day reset, anything — and felt like the "real" lesson happened somewhere you weren't expecting, this episode is for you. In This Episode Grounding practice — breath and affirmation to open the showWhy she thought 30 Hard was about discipline — and why it wasn'tThe dream and the altar message — "trust what you know and stop making yourself prove it to yourself"Lesson 1: Spiritual connection over physical strengthLesson 2: The body speaks — what days 13–14 taught her about listening instead of pushingLesson 3: Dream language and what the ear pain meantLesson 4: Consistency over perfection — how showing up (not perfectly) creates spiritual spaceAlmost missing the moment — celebrating one year post-explant in the middle of the challengeClosing affirmations — "I trust what I know. My body is wise. My spirit is wise."

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me One year ago today, I made a choice to stop proving myself and start trusting myself — I removed my breast implants. Today, I'm celebrating that choice with proof: real footage, the full journey, not the highlight reel. In this episode, I open up about what it's meant to live one year past my explant surgery, why "the choice created the proof," and how showing up in truth — not just talking about transformation, but living it — has become the heartbeat of Season 5. I also share big news: my documentary-style anniversary film drops today exclusively on my new Patreon, Nyomi's Intimate Corner, and my film To Unleash Us Back premieres this Friday on Tubi. We talk about: Why I chose to remove my implants and what fear tried to tell me along the wayThe difference between telling people about transformation and showing themWhat's inside the full explant anniversary footage — surgery day, post-op, and one year laterThe launch of Nyomi's Intimate Corner on Patreon, and what it means to go deeper into sexuality, sensuality, and spirituality alongside self-loveWhy I believe your body isn't the problem — it's the proof If you or someone you love is navigating breast implant illness (BII) or a major body-reclamation decision, this episode — and the footage behind it — is for you.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me From Fear to Freedom: The Power of Making the ChoiceSeason 5 | August Week 2 Mindset Monday | Day 27 of 30 Hard | Hosted by Nyomi Banks 📖 EPISODE SUMMARY Fear kept me from making the choice. But the moment I made the CHOICE — to reclaim, to listen, to trust — everything shifted. Not my body. My MIND. Not my circumstances. My KNOWING. Today we talk about what happens when you stop running from fear and start CHOOSING freedom. Because the choice? That's where the power lives. 🧘 60-SECOND MEDITATION Place one hand on your heart. "I choose freedom over fear." Inhale. Exhale. "I have the power to make this choice." Inhale. Exhale. "From this moment forward, I'm choosing differently." Inhale. Exhale. "Fear tried to run me, but I run me now." One more breath. Release. 💡 THE TEACHING: FEAR IS A CHOICE, NOT A FEELING Fear doesn't just happen to you. Fear is a HABIT you've been practicing. You practice it when you: Tighten your shoulders to take up less spaceClench your jaw to not speakCollapse your chest to not be seenNumb your belly to not feelYou've practiced these patterns so long, they FEEL like truth. But they're not. They're just choices you keep repeating. 🙏 THE ALTAR MESSAGE THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING A few weeks ago: Powerful dream. My right ear in excruciating pain. Next morning at my altar, the message came: "Trust what you know and stop making yourself prove it to yourself." This broke me open because: I've been PROVING myself to myself this whole time. Proving I'm worthy. Proving I'm healed. Proving I can do 30 Hard. Proving my body is good. PROVING. PROVING. PROVING. The message was clear: STOP PROVING. TRUST WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW. 🔄 WHAT CHANGED WHEN I CHOSE DIFFERENTLY When I made the CHOICE to stop proving and start trusting: Everything shifted. Not my circumstances. My INNER KNOWING shifted. I stopped asking permission from my fear. I stopped asking my doubt if I was ready. I stopped checking my insecurity if I was enough. I just CHOSE. And that choice freed me. 🎯 THE GYM QUOTE HITS DIFFERENTLY NOW "Don't be afraid to work hard enough to find out how good you can really be." THEN: Work hard to PROVE myself. Push harder, get stronger, show the world. NOW: Stop being afraid. You ALREADY know how good you can be. Stop making yourself PROVE it. The work isn't to PROVE your worth. The work is to STOP DOUBTING IT. 💫 FROM FEAR TO FREEDOM = CHOOSING TO TRUST Fear says: You need proof. You need permission. You need to prove you're worthy. Freedom says: You already know. You already ARE. Now TRUST IT. The beautiful thing: Freedom isn't something you FIND. Freedom is something you CHOOSE. Every single day when you: Choose trust over proofChoose knowing over doubtChoose inner wisdom over external validationThat's when you move from fear to freedom. 📝 CLOSING AFFIRMATION I choose freedom over fear. I have the power to make this choice. I stop proving and I start trusting. What I know about myself is TRUE. I don't need permission. I don't need proof. I don't need approval. I have inner knowing and I TRUST IT. My choice is my power. I am free. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am unstoppable. 💬 REAL TALK FROM NYOMI "Fear isn't just a feeling—it's a choice that I kept making." And: "The real work isn't physical. The real work is choosing to trust what you already know about yourself." 🎯 WHAT'S COMING This Week = CELEBRATION Wednesday (Aug 12): One-year explant anniversary + YouTube video release of the full journey. We celebrate the CHOICE that created the PROOF that choosing freedom changes everything. 🏆 WE'RE #100!

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Monday: Fear is held in your body. Reclamation means taking back what's yours. Last week (Ask Nyomi): Discipline is sexy because it's RESILIENT. Not perfect—resilient. Today: We put it together. We do the WORK of reclaiming your body. Not perfectly. But CONSCIOUSLY. And we do it from where we are RIGHT NOW. 🧘 60-SECOND MEDITATION Place both hands on your body. "My body deserves devotion, not perfection." Inhale. Exhale. "I am showing up. I am continuing forward. I am honoring where I am right now." Inhale. Exhale. "Discipline is how I reclaim my body. Resilience is how I stay." Inhale. Exhale. "I keep going. Not perfectly. But devotedly." One more breath. Release. 💡 THE TEACHING: DISCIPLINE = RESILIENCE Day 13: My body said NO. Day 14: I shut down. Did I go back to Day 1? NO. What I did: I repeated Day 14. I honored it. Then I KEPT GOING. That's not failure. That's RESILIENCE. That's DISCIPLINE. 📝 THE 5 EXERCISES Exercise 1: Listen to Your Body (With Devotion, Not Judgment) Step 1: Where do you feel tightness? Numbness? Alive? Afraid? (Don't fix it—just listen)Step 2: What fear lives in that space? (Tight shoulders = responsibility? Clenched jaw = not being heard? Collapsed chest = fear of being seen? Numb belly = fear of feeling?)Write it down. This is where the work begins.Exercise 2: Your Body Reclamation Practice (Start Where You Are) Step 1: Choose ONE practice (not everything). Move your body? Feed your body? Breathe? Rest? Feel your body? Pick ONE.Step 2: Commit to 7 days (not 30, not 90). Write: "For the next 7 days, I commit to ___ as an act of devotion to my body."Step 3: What does devotion look like? If you miss a day, you don't start over. You continue from where you are. (Like the man who walked Philly to LA—got hit by a car, healed where he was, KEPT WALKING.) Write: "If I miss a day, I keep going from where I am."Exercise 3: Release the Fear Blocks Step 1: Name it. "The fear in my [body part] is [fear]." Example: "The fear in my jaw is fear of speaking my truth."Step 2: Release it. Write it & burn it. Say it out loud. Move & shake it out. Breathe it out (inhale fear, exhale release).Step 3: Replace it. "The fear in my jaw releases. I replace it with: I speak my truth. My voice matters."Exercise 4: Your 7-Day Devotion Commitment Step 1: Write your commitment. "For 7 days, I commit to ___ as an act of body reclamation. I am not doing this perfectly. I am doing this devotedly. If I miss a day, I continue from where I am. I honor my body. I reclaim my body."Step 2: How will you track? Simple check-mark in journal or mark on calendar. (Not about perfection—about VISIBILITY. Seeing yourself show up.)Step 3: What's your backup plan? If you miss a day: Cool, tomorrow I do it. Family emergency? I honor that, next day I restart. Tired? Rest is part of reclamation too.Exercise 5: The Bigger Picture Step 1: What does reclaiming your body mean to YOU? (Reclaiming from trauma? Disconnection? Shame? Control? Fear?)Step 2: Who do you become when you reclaim? (When fear doesn't control you, when you listen to your body, when you show up with devotion—who are you?)Step 3: Is that who you want to be? If YES—you just found your WHY. Your discipline just got SEXIER. Because it's not about the practice. It's about WHO YOU'RE BECOMING.📝 CLOSING AFFIRMATION My body deserves devotion, not perfection. I am listening to what my body is telling me. I am releasing fear held in my being. I am showing up for my body. Not perfectly, but devotedly. If I fall, I continue from where I am. Discipline is sexy because it's resilient. I am reclaiming my body. Seven days at a time. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am unstoppable. 🏆 WE'RE #100!

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Day 20 of 30 Hard. Exactly MIDWAY. The gym quote on my wall: "Don't be afraid to work hard enough to find out how good you really can be." I've been sharing it for weeks. But today it HIT DIFFERENTLY. Because this isn't just about fitness. This is about reclaiming your body. This is about what happens when you stop being afraid. August = Honoring the 1-year anniversary of reclaiming MY body (explant Aug 12) + inviting you to reclaim YOURS. 🧘 60-SECOND MEDITATION (From Episode) Place one hand on heart. One hand on belly. "My body is not the problem. My body is the proof." Inhale. Exhale. "I am not afraid of how good I really can be." Inhale. Exhale. "I am reclaiming every inch, every cell, every experience." Inhale. Exhale. "My body is mine. And it is GOOD." One more breath in. Release. 💡 THE TEACHING: FEAR HELD IN YOUR BODY Fear doesn't live in your mind. It lives in your BODY. It tightens your shoulders. Clenches your jaw. Stops your breath. Makes you small. Most of us have carried fear in our bodies so long, we don't recognize it as fear. We think it's just who we are. But it's not. It's FEAR. 🔑 WHAT RECLAMATION MEANS When I got my breast implants removed a year ago, I wasn't just removing silicone. I was removing something I put there out of FEAR. Fear I wasn't enough. Fear I needed to be MORE. Fear my body as it was wouldn't be acceptable. Reclamation means: Taking back what's yours. Your body. Your choice. Your power. Your right to exist AS YOU ARE. Not as fear told you to be. But as you actually are. 🎯 THE QUOTE HITS DIFFERENTLY NOW For years: "Don't be afraid to work hard enough to find out how good you can be" = MOTIVATION for fitness NOW: It's SPIRITUAL MEDICINE Don't be afraid = Release fear held in your bodyWork hard enough = Show up for yourself consistently (through 30 Hard or your practice)Find out how good you can be = Discover who you are when FEAR ISN'T running the show 📝 THIS MONTH'S INVITATION While on Day 20 of 30 Hard, while honoring the explant anniversary (Aug 12), I'm inviting you to reclaim YOUR body. Not through surgery. Through: ✨ Listening to what your body is actually telling you ✨ Releasing fear held there ✨ Moving in ways that feel like DEVOTION ✨ Feeding yourself with intention ✨ Resting without guilt ✨ Reclaiming every inch as YOURS 📝 CLOSING AFFIRMATION My body is not the problem. My body is the PROOF. I am not afraid of how good I really can be. I release fear held in my shoulders. I release fear held in my jaw. I release fear in my breath. I release fear in my being. My body is mine. And it is GOOD. I am reclaiming it. All of it. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am unstoppable. 🏆 WE'RE #100!

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me We're closing July's "Look at the Messenger" journey. Week 1: Being the messenger (stay visible) Week 2: Journey from broken to unbroken Week 3: The messenger effect (how visibility creates permission) Week 4: Claiming your FULL messenger story Not parts of it. All of it. No apologies. 🧘 60-SECOND MEDITATION "I own my full story, all of it. My past, my present, my becoming. I am not one thing. I am the whole journey. And I am claiming it all. No apologies." 📝 THE FULL MESSENGER STORY INCLUDES: Your Past What broke youChoices you made (good and not-so-good)Industry/environment/situation you were inThis is CONTEXT. The soil where your strength grew.Your Struggle The actual work (therapy, boundaries, patterns, choices)Hard moments, times you wanted to quitNot weakness. EVIDENCE of your commitment.Your Becoming Who you're ACTIVELY becoming (still learning, growing, evolving)Not claiming you have it figured outYou're in PROCESSYour Impact What you're buildingWho you're servingThe ripple effectPROOF it wasn't for nothing 💡 WHY PEOPLE AVOID OWNING THE FULL STORY ❌ Because it requires vulnerability ❌ It means you're not perfect ❌ It means you're still working on things ❌ It means you have moments of doubt ❌ You haven't "arrived" ❌ It feels risky ✅ BUT: That's what makes you POWERFUL. 🔥 THE POWER OF YOUR FULL STORY When you claim your full messenger story: You're no longer trying to PROVE anythingYou're not convincing anyone you have it togetherYou're just saying: Here's what happened. Here's what I did. Here's who I am NOW. Here's where I'm still growing. That's what I offer.That's REAL power. That's the power that changes people. 🛡️ HOW CLAIMING YOUR FULL STORY PROTECTS YOU When you've already claimed it all, there's NOTHING left for people to use against you. Someone tries to shame you? You say: "Yeah, that was me. I survived it. And now I'm here." No power in the shame anymore. Because you already claimed it. 📝 NYOMI'S FULL MESSENGER STORY "I was in the adult industry for years. I survived things that broke me. I hid. I performed. I sought validation from people who couldn't give it. I got married to someone who didn't respect me. I carried shame. I built walls. I people-pleased. I controlled things. I made decisions I had to redo. I launched things that failed. I have moments of doubt. I'm still learning, still growing, still becoming. AND I survived it all. I got remarried to someone who loves and respects me. I built a coaching practice. I created a podcast with thousands of listeners. I launched Elevate Me. I'm building Our Souls Are Not Lost Foundation. I have three amazing daughters. I'm proof that transformation is real. That's my full messenger story. All of it. No apologies." 📝 CLOSING AFFIRMATION I am the whole woman. I am the whole man. I am the whole person. I am my past. I am my struggle. I am my becoming. I am my impact. I claim my full messenger story. All of it. No apologies. No hiding. No shame. I am broken and building. I am lost and found. I am healing and healed all at the same time. And that makes me powerful. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am unstoppable. 💬 REAL TALK FROM NYOMI "Your struggle is a part of your purpose. Your pain is a part of your purpose. Your struggle is your strength." And: "The world needs your whole story. Not a polished version. Your whole story." 🎯 CLOSING MESSAGE Your struggle. Your pain. Your journey. That's a GIFT for someone else. It allows them permission to see the gifts in their own life.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me What happens when you let people watch you heal — not just the "after" photo, but the real, messy middle? On this Mindset Monday, Nyomi Banks breaks down the Messenger Effect: the ripple that happens when you stay visible through your own transformation instead of disappearing until you're "fixed." Nyomi gets personal about why she chose to be seen through every chapter of her own reinvention — including her journey out of the adult industry and into her identity as Nyomi Banks, Da Goddess of Self Love — and why hiding the process only makes healing look impossible for everyone watching you. In this episode, you'll learn the four things staying visible actually creates: Permission — proof that transformation is a real choice, not a fantasyA roadmap — showing people what you did, who you asked for help, and what it costCommunity — attracting others on the same journey so no one heals aloneA shifted narrative — rewriting the story people believe about you (and you believe about yourself)Nyomi also opens up about a real conversation with her husband this week on fear as a survival tool, sitting with the question "what are you afraid of?", and why she's learning to see the unknown as a gift instead of a threat. If you've been healing quietly, this episode is your permission to stop hiding the process. This episode is brought to you by Ask Nyomi and Elevate Me: Self-Discovery.  🌱 Go deeper in your transformation — Elevate Me's Phase 3 is all about rooting in self-love and standing in your power visibly.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me From Broken to Unbroken: The Journey of TransformationSeason 5 | Week 2 Mindset Monday | Hosted by Nyomi Banks 📖 EPISODE SUMMARY Last week, we talked about being the messenger and staying visible. This week, we go DEEPER into the actual journey from broken to unbroken. Not the destination. Not the highlight reel. The ACTUAL WORK. What real healing looks like when you're willing to do it. Because being a messenger isn't just showing people who you are NOW — it's showing them what it TAKES to get there. 🎯 KEY TAKEAWAYS ✨ Broken isn't weakness — it's what happens when life breaks you open ✨ Transformation isn't clean — it's messy, hard, and nonlinear ✨ The journey requires HONEST WORK — not a moment, but a series of daily choices ✨ Your journey from broken to unbroken IS your message — people need to see what it took, not just where you ended up ✨ The messenger effect — showing your real journey gives others permission to transform too 🔄 THE 5 CHOICES OF TRANSFORMATION Choice 1: Facing the Truth Look at what broke you (abuse, betrayal, systems that harmed you)Don't avoid it, minimize it, or reframe itFeel what you've been avoidingChoice 2: Getting Support Therapy, coaching, community, spiritual guidance, trusted friendsBe vulnerable with someoneLet them see your broken partsYou can't do this aloneChoice 3: Doing the Healing Work Active work, not passiveTherapy sessions where you cryJournaling through traumaSetting boundariesMaking hard choicesForgiving (including yourself)Show up week after week, even when it's hard, even when you don't see progressChoice 4: Changing Your Patterns Patterns are comfortable but they keep you brokenInterrupt old patternsNotice when you're repeating themMake different choices over and overUntil the new pattern becomes comfortableChoice 5: Building Something New New relationships, new beliefs, new boundaries, new standards, new communityDon't just remove what was brokenACTIVELY BUILD something new💡 WHY PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO DO THIS WORK Desperation: When staying broken costs more than healing Love: Doing it for someone else (your children, partner, community) Vision: Catching a glimpse of who you could be and wanting it badly Refusal: Looking in the mirror and saying "Not me. Not anymore." That refusal becomes fuel. 🧘 60-SECOND GUIDED MEDITATION (From Episode) "I honor every step of my journey. The broken parts taught me. The healing parts strengthened me. I didn't waste my pain. I transformed it. I am unbroken because I am willing to do the work." 📝 CLOSING AFFIRMATION (Repeat After Nyomi) I was broken. I admit it. I faced it. I got support. I did the work. I kept going. I changed my patterns. I built something new. I honored my journey and every hard step, every choice, every moment. I am not perfect. I am unbroken and I am becoming. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am unstoppable. 🌟 REAL TALK FROM NYOMI "When you come from broken to unbroken, those conversations become so much better. They become so much better because you are no longer coming from a broken place. You are no longer coming from a hurt place. You're coming from a whole different space." And: "Your journey from broken to unbroken, that is your message. Not the destination, but the journey. Because people don't need to see you perfect. They need to see you real." 📋 WHAT'S NEXT Action Wednesday (This Week): Identify the work YOU need to doFind the support YOU need to getName the patterns YOU need to breakUntil then: Sit with this: Your journey is your message. Your worth is the work it takes. 💬 CONNECT WITH ME Text or Voice Note: Use the link below to send me a message or voice note directly through Buzzsprout.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Monday, we talked about being the messenger. About staying visible. About refusing to hide. Today? We identify YOUR messenger story. Not your past. Not your label. Who you are NOW. What you've overcome. What you're building. What you're becoming. 5 POWERFUL EXERCISES: Exercise 1: What Have You Overcome? Name what you came from (poverty, abuse, trauma, discrimination, loss, illness, broken relationships)What did you LEARN from each?What strength did you develop?Acknowledge your survivalExercise 2: What Are You Building NOW? Who are you NOW? (identity, role, what you create)What impact are you having?Write your messenger storyExercise 3: The Gap — From Past to Present Bridge past → present → impactWhy your messenger story mattersWho you can help BECAUSE of what you survivedExercise 4: Claiming Your Messenger Identity Write your MESSENGER STATEMENTSay it OUT LOUD (3 times, louder each time)Look in mirror. Own it. Feel it.Exercise 5: Visibility Commitment Are you ready to stay visible as a messenger?Who needs to see your story?What's ONE action this week? 📝 YOUR MESSENGER STATEMENT TEMPLATE (Use in Show Notes) Fill in the blanks and say it OUT LOUD: "I am [your identity/role]. I am building [what you're creating]. I am impacting [who you're serving/how]. My past is [where you came from], but I overcame it. I learned [what you learned]. And now I am [who you are NOW]. That's my messenger story. That's who I am NOW." 📝 YOUR COMMITMENT STATEMENT (Use in Show Notes) Write this down and commit: "I commit to staying visible as a messenger. I commit to claiming my messenger identity. I commit to letting people see what's possible. I understand this costs comfort, safety, and opens me to judgment. And I'm choosing to do it anyway. Because the world needs my story. Because someone needs to see my proof. I am staying visible. Starting today." YOUR MESSENGER STORY INCLUDES: ✨ What you came from ✨ What you learned ✨ What you've overcome ✨ Who you ARE NOW ✨ What you're building ✨ Your impact KEY MESSAGE: "Don't look at the messenger, listen to the message." NO. LOOK AT THE MESSENGER. Because the messenger IS the proof. Your past is context. Your present is the message. Your visibility is the proof that transformation is real. CLOSING INVITATION: This week: Claim your messenger story using the templates above. Say it out loud. Record yourself. Share it. Post about it. Stay visible. Let people see what's possible. The world doesn't need your apologies. It needs your PROOF. Elevate Me: Self Discovery App 4-phase self-love journey: meditations, workbooks, coaching chat & journaling.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me While launching Elevate Me: Self Discovery, Nyomi has been the target of stalking emails, manipulated images, and DMs demanding she hide her past. In this raw and unfiltered Mindset Monday, she breaks her silence on what it really costs to stay visible — and why she's not going anywhere. This episode covers: The truth behind why Nyomi kept her name through her transformationWhat it means to be "the messenger" instead of hiding from your own storyWhy attacks on visibility are really about other people's discomfort with changeReal talk on the emotional cost — and the deeper reward — of refusing to disappearA closing affirmation to help you reclaim your own story, whatever it isBecause the messenger is the message.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Last week, you identified your overstanders—people who SEE your power. But do YOU see your own power?  Nyomi's 53 years of living = ACCUMULATED POWER. Not because her past is perfect. But because of her JOURNEY. In this powerful episode, Nyomi breaks down what she's accumulated:  What she SURVIVED: Judgment, shame, exploitation, broken marriage, loss, betrayal, being seen as less than. She's still here. That's power. What she TRANSFORMED: Performance→coaching. Hiding→unashamed. Shame→self-love. Seeking validation→own authority. Controlled→free. Survival mode→thriving. That's power. What she BUILT: Business, podcast 400+, community, partnerships, home, relationships, app, life that matters. That's power. Then she teaches YOU about YOUR accumulated power: What have you SURVIVED?What have you TRANSFORMED?What have you BUILT?Your power isn't about perfect past. It's about your JOURNEY. Stop shrinking. Stop apologizing. Start claiming your power.  Next Wednesday: Power Inventory (identify exactly what YOU'VE accumulated)  Connect: @TheSeasonofSelfLovePodcast #AccumulatedPower #YourPower #53Years #ReclaimedAndUnashamed #UnderestimatedAndUnstoppable #SurvivalTransformationBuilding #ClaimYourPower Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-season-of-self-love--6003379/support.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Sunday morning, Nyomi was washing dishes when a revelation hit: What if being underestimated isn't a wound? What if it's a SHIELD? What followed was a poem that became this month's series: "Underestimated is your protection! Those that don't see your value isn't for you. Concentrate on those that understand and overstand you. Your actions, your growth, your ability to come into a room and make the room better—that is your power." The shift: Stop seeing underestimation as proof you're not enough. Start seeing it as protection from the wrong people.  In this episode, Nyomi breaks down:Why underestimation FILTERS OUT wrong peopleHow it PROTECTS your peace & energyThe 4 ways underestimation serves youHer 53 years of accumulated powerHow to reframe: "Thank God they don't see my value"So what they underestimate you? THANK GOD THEY DO.  It means they're not FOR you. And you're not for them either.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me This week, Nyomi's celebrating her mother's 75th birthday. Her mother is living with dementia—her memories are fading. But she's MORE herself now. Without the masks. Without the performance. Just HER. The truth: You are not your past. You are who you ARE now. When people bring up your past to diminish you, control you, or justify mistreatment—that's not about YOU. That's about THEM. It's about their limitation. In this powerful episode, Nyomi breaks down three real stories (Drake, a young lady in chat, and her own inbox) and teaches you how to recognize weaponization and set boundaries around it. You'll learn: Why people weaponize your past (it's about THEIR limitation, not your worth)What to do in 5 stepsHow to reclaim your truthYour past doesn't define you. Their inability to see beyond it defines them.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me This morning at the altar, two cards came with the EXACT message for Week 4 - the final week of Reclaiming Your Closet.  Card 1: "Whatever life takes away from you, let it go. When you surrender and let go of the past, you allow yourself to be fully alive in the moment. Letting go of the past means that you can enjoy the dream that is happening right now." Card 2: "Regardless of what language you speak, your intent will manifest through the word. What you dream, what you feel, and what you really are will all be manifested through the word." The message: Let go of the past. Be alive NOW. Enjoy the dream RIGHT NOW. And speak your truth out loud - your words have POWER. IN THIS EPISODE The Journey (Where We've Been):Week 1: Identified three types of clothesWeek 2: The feeling audit (released based on feeling)Week 3: Pressure to possibility (visioned who we're becoming)Week 4: FINAL release - UNASHAMEDCard 1 Breakdown:"Whatever life takes, let it go" - Life takes things, we must release our grip"Surrender the past to be alive NOW" - Can't be fully present while living in past"Enjoy the dream happening RIGHT NOW" - Not what was, not what you thought, but what ISCard 2 Breakdown:"Your intent manifests through the word" - Your words create your reality"What you dream, feel, really are = manifested through word" - Must SPEAK it out loudYou must DECLARE your truth, not just think itWhat "Unashamed Letting Go" Means:No apologies for how long it took (growth is a spiral)No guilt about money spent (it's gone already, can't get it back)No shame about the chapters (they were part of your journey)No embarrassment about starting over (quality over quantity = power)No fear of being "too much" (be unashamed)The Final Release (What to Let Go):The last physical items (anything still held from fear/guilt/shame)The old stories ("I'm someone who can't let go" → "I surrender, I'm alive NOW")The pressure to be perfect (let go of "should")The need for external validation (this is FOR you)The fear of the unknown (trust the NOW)Enjoy the Dream Happening RIGHT NOW: Not the dream you wanted or planned - the dream you're LIVING. Nyomi's example: Amazing family, business she loves, health returning, partner who respects her, Goddess era, reclaimed & unashamed Your Words Manifest Your Reality: SPEAK out loud:"I surrender the past""I let go so I can be fully alive NOW""I enjoy the dream happening RIGHT NOW""I release UNASHAMED""I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am alive."5 REFLECTION QUESTIONS:What am I STILL holding onto out of fear, guilt, or shame?What OLD story am I ready to release? What NEW story am I speaking into existence?What's the dream happening RIGHT NOW in my life? Can I enjoy it fully?What does "unashamed letting go" mean for ME specifically?What will I SPEAK out loud this week to manifest my reality?CLOSING AFFIRMATION: Whatever life has taken from me, I let it go. I surrender the past so I can be fully alive NOW. I enjoy the dream that is happening RIGHT NOW. My words have power. What I speak, I manifest. I release UNASHAMED. No apologies. No guilt. No shame. No fear. I am alive NOW. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am free.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me You've released the past and cleared the pressure. Now it's time to CREATE the future and BUILD the possibility. Today, we're visioning your possibility closet, identifying what's missing, and making a plan to build INTENTIONALLY. Grab your journal. Let's do the work. IN THIS EPISODE Meditation: Visioning yourself and what you're wearing as you become Exercise 1: Defining Your Becoming Energy (3 steps)Name the energy (3-5 words)Describe what that energy looks likeAsk what that energy needsExercise 2: Visioning Your Possibility ClosetAnswer questions about colors, fabrics, silhouettes, categories, overall vibeComplete: "My possibility closet is a place where..."Exercise 3: The Gap AnalysisWhat's working? (5-10 pieces you love)What's missing? (specific gaps)What has biggest impact? (focus item)Exercise 4: Building IntentionallyDefine your criteria (non-negotiables)Create your becoming shopping list (specific, not general)Set a timeline (don't rush, find RIGHT pieces)Intentional Shopping GuideBefore, during, and after shopping protocols3 questions to ask every pieceWhat If You Can't Afford It?Shop your closet differentlyAlter what you haveThrift or swapSave intentionally ($10-20/month = 1 perfect piece in 6 months)EXERCISE 1: DEFINING YOUR BECOMING ENERGY Not job titles. Not weight goals. ENERGY. Step 1: Name the Energy Pick 3-5 words: Confident? Grounded? Powerful? Playful? Soft? Bold? Expressive? Free? Royal? Creative? Step 2: Describe What That Energy Looks Like "When I'm [energy word], I [action]." Examples:When I'm confident, I stand tall and speak clearlyWhen I'm grounded, I move slowly, breathe deeply, feel connectedWhen I'm powerful, I make decisions quickly, trust myself, lead with clarityStep 3: Ask What That Energy Needs "To support this energy, I need clothes that [blank]." Examples:To support my confidence, I need clothes that fit well, make me feel amazingTo support my groundedness, I need clothes that feel good on my skin, don't restrict meTo support my power, I need clothes that make me feel like a boss, have structureThis is your BECOMING ENERGY PROFILE. EXERCISE 2: VISIONING YOUR POSSIBILITY CLOSET Imagine tomorrow you open your closet. It's PERFECT. It supports who you are NOW and who you're BECOMING. Answer:Colors: What colors dominate? What colors make you feel like your becoming energy?Fabrics: What textures feel good on your skin?Silhouettes: What shapes/cuts make you feel like yourself?Categories: What's abundant? What's minimal?Overall Vibe: How does it FEEL when you open this closet?Complete: "My possibility closet is a place where [blank]." Nyomi's example: "My possibility closet is a place where every piece makes me feel like the goddess that I am. Where I can get dressed in 5 minutes because everything works. Where I'm surrounded by colors that make me feel powerful, fabrics that make me feel luxurious, and silhouettes that let me move freely. Where I open the doors and feel excited, not overwhelmed." EXERCISE 3: THE GAP ANALYSIS Step 1: What's Working? List 5-10 pieces you LOVE that make you feel like your becoming self. Step 2: What's Missing? Compare current closet to possibility vision. What specific gaps do you see? Examples:Missing: Powerful blazers that make me feel like a bossMissing: Flowy dresses in colors that support my goddess energyMissing: Comfortable pants that let me move freelyStep 3: What Has Biggest Impact? Which ONE piece will shift your closet from pressure to possibility? Circle that. That's your FOCUS. EXERCISE 4: BUILDING INTENTIONALLY Step 1: Define Your Criteria (Non-Negotiables) "I only bring pieces into my closet that:Make me feel [your becoming energy words]Support my actual life needsPass the feeling test"Step 2: Create Your Becoming Shopping List Be SPECIFIC. Not "I need tops" but "I need 2 tops in [color] that make me feel [energy] and work for [specific situation]." Step 3: Set a Timeline Give yourself time to find the RIGHT pieces. Not just ANY pieces. Examples:By June 1st, I will have found 1 powerful blazer that makes me feel like a bossBy July 1st, I will have 3 dresses in colors that support my goddess energyINTENTIONAL SHOPPING Before Shopping:Review your criteriaReview your becoming shopping listKnow EXACTLY what you're looking forWhen Shopping: Ask 3 questions:How does this make me feel?Does this support my becoming energy?Will I wear this in my actual life?If all 3 are YES → Consider it If ANY are NO → Walk away After Buying:Try it on with other pieces in closetConfirm it still feels goodIf YES → Keep. If NO → Return (no shame, no guilt)WHAT IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT? Option 1: Shop Your Closet Differently With becoming energy in mind, go back through what you kept. Style differently. Pair differently. See with new eyes. Option 2: Alter What You Have Can you tailor something to fit better? Dye it a different color? Transform it? Option 3: Thrift or Swap Thrift stores, consignment shops, clothing swaps with friends. Option 4: Save Intentionally Put aside $10-20/month. In 6 months = $60-120 for ONE perfect piece that makes you feel amazing. Building your possibility closet is not about MONEY. It's about INTENTION. YOUR COMMITMENT THIS WEEK I commit to:Defining my becoming energy (3-5 words)Writing my possibility closet visionIdentifying the gap (current vs. possibility)Creating my becoming shopping list (specific)Setting a timeline (when do I want first piece?)Committing to intentional building ONLYWHAT THIS CREATES ✨ A space that supports your growth ✨ A place of possibility, not pressure ✨ Mornings that are easy and joyful ✨ Confidence that comes from within ✨ Freedom to be yourself ✨ A tool for becoming who you're meant to be That's the shift. That's the power. NYOMI'S REFLECTION "So much internal work I've been doing these past few weeks. Deep work. It's so much deeper. The best gift is that I'm able to get the clothing for me, for who I am NOW. Not who I was as a teenager. Not who I was creating. But who I AM now. Mind-blowing. It's so much deeper. It's more than just closet and clothes, my people." CLOSING AFFIRMATION I build my possibility closet intentionally. Every piece supports who I am now and who I am becoming. I am clear in my vision. I am patient in the process. I am creating a space that serves my future. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am intentional. NEXT EPISODE Monday - Week 4: Unashamed Letting Go The final release, celebration, and commitment to maintaining your possibility closet.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Your closet should not be a place of pressure—where you feel judged, not enough, or stuck. Your closet should be a place of POSSIBILITY—where you feel supported, free, and like YOU. This week, we're shifting from what you're RELEASING to what you're CREATING. From pressure to possibility. From past to present. From stuck to BECOMING. THE PROOF: NYOMI'S STORY  Last Wednesday morning before filming Action Wednesday, Nyomi went into her closet to get dressed. She pulled out a light blue outfit she loved when she had implants—but hadn't worn since her explant surgery in August (10 months ago). She did the feeling audit: "How does this make me feel?" Answer: Beautiful. Good. Like MYSELF. The healed me. The goddess me. The RECLAIMED me. Decision: This one can stay. What she did: WORE IT while filming the feeling audit episode. "I wasn't just TEACHING the feeling audit. I was WEARING the proof of it." The lesson: Not everything from your past has to go. But EVERYTHING has to pass the feeling test. MEDITATION: VISIONING YOUR BECOMING Today's meditation: See the next version of you. Not who you were, not who you think you should be, but who you're naturally BECOMING. Affirmations:I am becoming her/him/themI am stepping into that energy nowMy closet supports who I am now and who I am becomingI release pressure. I embrace possibility.THE SHIFT: PRESSURE VS. POSSIBILITY PRESSURE Feels Like:Overwhelmed by too many choicesGuilty about what you haven't wornAshamed about your bodyStuck in the past"Nothing works" / "Nothing to wear" even though closet is fullPOSSIBILITY Feels Like:Excited about your optionsConfident in your choicesSupported by your clothesConnected to yourselfFree to be who you are"Everything works" / "I have exactly what I need"Same closet.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Monday, we learned THE question: "How does this make me feel?" Today, we do the actual audit. Piece by piece. Item by item. We ask the question. We name the feeling. We release based on FEELING alone. Not logic. Not guilt. Not "should." Just feeling. This is Action Wednesday. This is the work.  IN THIS EPISODE The Recap:The question isn't "Should I keep this?" but "How does this make me feel?"Mel Robbins: "If a piece makes you feel small, ashamed, or disconnected, it does not belong in your future."Today: Releasing based on FEELING, not logic, guilt, or should.EXERCISE 1: THE FEELING AUDIT (5 STEPS) Step 1: Pick the section you inventoried last week (tops, pants, dresses, shoes)  Step 2: Pull out each item one at a time. Put it on. Look in the mirror.  Step 3: Ask OUT LOUD: "How does this make me feel?"  Step 4: Name the SPECIFIC feeling:Confident or insecure?Grounded or disconnected?Beautiful or ashamed?Like yourself or like you're pretending?Step 5: Make the decision based on feeling:Feel good/confident/yourself → KEEP ITFeel small/ashamed/disconnected → RELEASE ITThat's it. Not "how much I spent." Not "will it fit someday." How does it make me FEEL?  EXERCISE 2: WRITING THE FEELING RESPONSES Create two columns in your journal: Column 1 - KEEP (What Makes Me Feel Good):Item + Feeling (blue sweater = confident)Column 2 - RELEASE (What Makes Me Feel Bad):Item + Feeling + Why you kept it (white dress = uncomfortable = spent money on it)This shows you the PATTERN. What you've been tolerating. What you've been carrying.  EXERCISE 3: THE SHOULD VS. FEEL CHECK For items you're struggling with:  Q1: Am I keeping this because I SHOULD or because it FEELS GOOD?  Q2: Who says I should? Is it MY rule or somebody else's?  Q3: What would happen if I let this go? Answer: Nothing. You'd just have one less piece that makes you feel bad. That's a WIN. THE RESISTANCE TESTS  Mirror Test: Put it on. Do I feel like myself or like I'm performing? (Performing = Release) One-Year Test: Have I worn this in the past year? (No = Release) Today Test: Would I buy this exact item today, knowing what I know about myself NOW? (No = Release) THE 5 COMMON SHOULD TRAPS Trap 1: "But it's in perfect condition!" → Doesn't mean it serves YOU. Donate it.  Trap 2: "But I spent money on it!" → That money is GONE already. Can't get it back by keeping something that makes you feel bad. Trap 3: "But it's a classic/timeless!" → For WHO? If it doesn't feel good on YOU, it doesn't matter. Trap 4: "But everyone says it looks good on me!" → Great. Then THEY can wear it. YOU wear what makes YOU feel good. Trap 5: "But I might need it for an event!" → When that event comes, you'll find something that makes you feel AMAZING, not something you settle for. THE RELEASE RITUAL (3 STEPS)  Step 1 - Acknowledge: "I kept this because I spent money / thought I should / someone gave it to me." Step 2 - Thank: "Thank you for the lesson. Thank you for teaching me to honor my feelings." Step 3 - Release with Love: Put in donation bag. Say: "I release this with love. May it serve someone who feels amazing in it." WHAT IF MOST OF MY CLOSET DOESN'T FEEL GOOD?  First: Breathe. That's good information. You've been carrying emotional weight. Now you get to release it.  Second: You don't have to release it all at once. But you DO have to start. What to do:Keep only what makes you feel good (even if it's 5-10 pieces)Quality over quantityIdentify what's actually missingBuild intentionally moving forward (only bring in items that pass the feeling test)YOUR COMMITMENT THIS WEEK I commit to:Going through the section I inventoried last weekAsking "How does it make me feel?" for EACH itemNaming the specific feelingReleasing everything that makes me feel small, ashamed, or disconnectedKeeping ONLY what makes me feel grounded, confident, supportedDropping off donations within 48 hoursSay it out loud. Write it down. Make it real. WHAT THIS CREATES ✨ Your closet becomes a sanctuary—every option supports you ✨ Your mornings become easier—you're not fighting yourself  ✨ Your confidence increases—you're wearing YOUR truth ✨ You learn to trust yourself and your feelings That's RECLAIMED. That's UNASHAMED. That's SELF-LOVE. NYOMI'S REAL TALK  "When I saw Mel's post, I had been cleaning out my closet yet again. My closet was STILL full. The coats fell down and I'm like, I have to do something different. At the end of this month, I'm getting a new closet. This is me unblocking something more. Opening up to receiving—growth, opportunity, wisdom, elevation, being UNSTUCK. That money I spent? It's gone already. I can't get it back by keeping something that makes me feel bad. It is more than just the clothing in the closet. It's so much more bigger than that." CLOSING AFFIRMATION I trust my feelings. My feelings are my guide. I release what makes me feel small. I keep what makes me feel strong. I honor my truth without apology. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am guided by feeling. ACCOUNTABILITY DM Nyomi on Instagram: @TheSeasonofSelfLovePodcast Tell her:How many items you released based on feelingWhat you discovered about yourselfHow it feels to only keep what feels goodNEXT EPISODE Monday - Week 3: From Pressure to Possibility Transforming your closet into a space that supports who you're BECOMING.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me What happens when you're 10 minutes into recording and realize something feels... off? Today's episode is raw and real. Nyomi stopped recording, went to her altar, pulled cards, and came back with THE distinction that changes everything. YOUR feelings about what serves YOUR life = YOUR truth. Trust them. OTHER people's feelings about YOUR choices ≠ YOUR truth. Don't take them personally. This is the ONE question that will transform your closet—and your life. THE REAL STORY Nyomi stopped recording 10 minutes in because the script said "Your feelings are your truth. Trust your feelings." But she thought: "Wait. We're taught feelings AREN'T truth. Feelings are emotions. That's where arguments come from." So she went to her altar, pulled 5 cards, and got THE answer: The distinction is WHOSE feelings.  THE DISTINCTION (CRYSTAL CLEAR) YOUR Feelings About YOUR Life = YOUR Truth When you ask: "How does THIS make ME feel?" When you're deciding: "Does THIS serve MY life?" → TRUST THESE FEELINGS. They're YOUR internal compass. OTHER People's Feelings About YOU ≠ YOUR Truth When THEY think you should keep something. When THEY have opinions about YOUR choices. → DON'T TAKE THESE PERSONALLY. That's about THEM, not YOU.  EXAMPLES IN YOUR CLOSET (Your feelings = Your truth): You put on a dress. Your body tenses. You feel uncomfortable. → "This doesn't serve me. Release it." TRUST THIS.  SOMEONE'S OPINION (Their feelings ≠ Your truth): Friend says: "But you spent money on that! Keep it!" Your truth: It makes you uncomfortable. → Release it anyway. Don't take their opinion personally. MEL ROBBINS' WISDOM "If a piece makes you feel small, ashamed, or disconnected from yourself, it does not belong in your future." The question isn't "Should I keep this?" (logic, external expectations) The question is "How does this make ME feel?" (YOUR internal compass) SHOULD VS. FEEL "Should" = What others expect, what society says, external rules → Disconnects you from what serves YOU  "Feel" = YOUR body's wisdom, YOUR heart's truth, YOUR alignment → Guides you to what serves YOUR becoming YOUR BODY KNOWS When something supports you: Body relaxes, shoulders drop, you breathe easier, you feel like YOURSELF When something doesn't serve you: Body tenses, you pull at fabric, you avoid mirrors, you feel like PERFORMING Your body's feedback = YOUR truth about what serves YOUR life THE EXERCISE  Step 1: Pick up each item Step 2: Put it on or hold it up Step 3: Ask: "How does this make ME feel?" Step 4: Notice your body's response (relax or tense?)  Step 5: Honor that feeling as YOUR truth Keep it if it makes you feel: good, grounded, confident, like yourself Release it if it makes you feel: small, ashamed, uncomfortable, disconnected 5 REFLECTION QUESTIONSWhat am I keeping because I "should" instead of because it actually feels good?What makes me feel small, ashamed, or disconnected from myself?What makes me feel confident, grounded, and like MYSELF?How do I feel when I open my closet each morning?If I only kept clothes that made me feel good, what would I release?CLOSING AFFIRMATION My feelings about MY life are MY truth. I trust what serves ME. I release what doesn't.  I honor my body's wisdom.  I follow my internal compass. I let go of "should" and embrace "feel."  I am aligned with MY becoming. I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am ready. THE BOTTOM LINE  For YOUR closet/life: "How does this make ME feel?" → Trust this. It's YOUR truth. For OTHERS' opinions: "That's their feeling, not mine." → Don't take it personally. That's the distinction. That's the key.

I definitely had to stop ten minutes in and come back and redo it all over again." If you need extra clarity, the full detailed show notes are on the website. But here's the key: YOUR feelings about YOUR life = trust them. OTHER people's feelings about YOUR choices = don't take them personally. Season 5 = More real, more honest, more action.  Let's do the work.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Monday, we talked about the map. Today, we draw the lines. Today, we inventory. Today, we identify. Today, we begin the release.  In this Action Wednesday, Nyomi gets REAL about her own closet journey—the 200+ wigs, the 30-year-old clothes, the drawer of expensive bras she gave away LAST WEEK, the family memorial t-shirts she released THIS MORNING, and the red carpet dresses she's finally ready to let go. This isn't theory. This is Nyomi doing the work WITH you, in real time, sharing her own struggles and breakthroughs as she reclaims her closet. This is Season 5. This is action. Let's do the work. IN THIS EPISODE The Recap: Three Types of Clothes Type 1: Clothes that no longer fit your LIFE (not just body—your actual life, who you are, where you live, what you do, how you move)Type 2: Clothes from old chapters (the job you left, relationships that ended, versions you've outgrown)Type 3: Clothes for a version that never arrived (fantasy clothes, "someday" clothes, "when I'm that person" clothes)Nyomi's REAL Stories (Doing the Work in Real Time): The Background: Cleans her closet at least 6 times a yearSTILL has clothes older than her 30-year-old oldest daughterHad over 200 wigs (now down to maybe 100-150)Used to buy clothes constantly when actively in the industry, going to events, seminarsNow back in production on mainstream projects—her production company doing amazing thingsSome clothes/wigs can now go to her production house to become charactersLast Week's Release: A whole drawer of expensive, custom-made brasVictoria's Secret bras, bras specifically made for her old sizeHad breast implant surgery in August of last yearHas cleaned closet/drawers 3 times since AugustSTILL was holding onto TWO big drawers of bras she could no longer wearFinally bagged them and gave them away LAST WEEKThe Red Carpet Dresses: Still has several red carpet dressesKnows she'll never fit back in them (not just size—doesn't have the body for them post-surgery)Expensive pieces she's been holding onto"But I spent so much money on this!"—finally ready to releaseThis Morning's Release: Family memorial t-shirts from when family members passed awaySome with pictures faded from washingSome she wears sometimes, some she doesn'tHad them for YEARSSat at altar this morning and prayed about releasing themHas their obituaries and pictures displayed—that's memory enoughDoesn't need the garments with their pictures on them to rememberHer Mother's Closet: "I wish I could go into my mother's closet and do it!"Her mother (she's her caregiver) has SO many old clothesBeing her caregiver has been "one" (laughs about it now)Can see the same patterns in her mother's closetThe Mel Robbins Post Timing: Hit her at the EXACT right time last week while cleaning closetThought she was doing it right (cleans 6 times a year!)Realized: still holding blockage, still holding things with old energy and old storiesDivine timing: the expansion happening in her life NEEDS this release nowExercise 1: The Closet Inventory NYOMI WANTS YOU TO ACTUALLY DO THIS (not just think about it): Step 1: Pick ONE Section One shelf, one rod, one drawerNot the whole closet—just ONE sectionMake it manageableStep 2: Pull Everything Out Don't leave it in the closetPut it all out where you can see itEvery single item from that sectionStep 3: Sort Into Three Piles PILE 1: Doesn't fit my life anymorePILE 2: From an old chapter I've outgrownPILE 3: For a version of me that never arrivedStep 4: Journal on Each Pile For Pile 1: Why doesn't this fit my life anymore? What has changed?For Pile 2: What chapter was this from? What version of me wore this? Why am I holding onto that chapter?For Pile 3: What version of me was I trying to be? Why didn't that version arrive? What was I trying to prove? Who was I trying to become?Step 5: Make the Decision Go through each pileKeep or release?Ask yourself: Does this support who I am NOW or who I'm BECOMING?If the answer is no → it goesStep 6: The Physical Release Get donation bagsPut released items IN the bagsTie them upPut them in your carDrop them off within 48 HOURS (this is critical—don't let them sit!)The 4 Common Blocks & How to Overcome Them: BLOCK 1: "But I spent so much money on this" Nyomi's example: The red carpet dresses The truth: Keeping it won't get your money back. The money is gone whether it's in the closet or at Goodwill. But at least at Goodwill, someone can use it. Your response: "I honor the money I spent. And I release the guilt. Because someone else will love this piece." BLOCK 2: "What if I need it someday?" The truth: You won't. And if you do, you'll find something better that actually fits who you are at that time. Your response: "I trust that I will have what I need when I need it. " BLOCK 3: "This reminds me of a good time" Nyomi's example: The family memorial t-shirts she released this morning The truth: That's beautiful. But memory lives in your heart, not in your closet. You don't need the physical object to remember. Your response: "I carry the memory with me in my heart. I don't need the object." Nyomi's story: "Yesterday, just this morning, I chose to release t-shirts that my family made when family members passed away. I've had them for years. Some with pictures faded from washing. I sat at my altar and prayed that I was going to release them. The thing is, I have a whole area with their obituaries and their pictures. That is memory enough instead of wearing a garment with their pictures on there ." BLOCK 4: "I'll fit into this again when I lose weight" Nyomi says: "That was a big one for me. That was a big one for me." The truth: First of all, you are beautiful and handsome enough as you are RIGHT NOW. But second, when you reach that goal—and Nyomi's going to tell you this—you're going to want something NEW. You're going to want new clothes to celebrate the new you, not the old clothes from years ago from the old chapter. Because when you finish the transformation to get that new body, you ain't going to want that old stuff with that old energy, with them old stories on that new reformed body. You're not going to want that.  Your response: "I honor my body now. When I change, I'll celebrate with new pieces." Your Commitment for This Week: Write this down. Say it out loud. Make it real: Inventory ONE section of your closetSort into three typesJournal on the stories behind each pileMake the decision: keep or releasePhysically put items into donation bags and drop off within 48 hoursAccountability: Option 1: DM Nyomi on Instagram @TheRealNyomiBanks (spelled N-Y-O-M-I)OR @TheSeasonofSelfLovePodcastTell her which section you inventoried or how many items you're releasingOption 2: Tell an accountability partner Make it publicMake it realNEXT EPISODE Next Monday - Week 2: "How Elevate Me: Self Discovery App 4-phase self-love journey: meditations, workbooks, coaching chat & journaling.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Your closet is not just clothes. It's a map of your past selves. Old identities. Old chapters. Old versions of you that you've outgrown. And if you want to reclaim your life, you have to reclaim your closet. In this May series kickoff, Nyomi shares the story of her 15-year-old coats in the Las Vegas desert, the Mel Robbins post that stopped her cold, and why she's teaching this AGAIN even though she already did an episode on this years ago. Because growth is a spiral, not a line. And sometimes the universe has to remind you: there's more work to do. This is Season 5. More intentional. More action. This month, we're reclaiming our closets—and our lives. IN THIS EPISODE The Divine Timing: Nyomi was spring cleaning (AGAIN) while planning May content for Ask Nyomi's Love & Mental Health seriesMel Robbins' post about closets came across her timeline and STOPPED HER COLDShe KNEW this was the May series: "This was the message. This is what we're doing."The universe/God had other plans than what she originally plannedThe Story: 15-Year-Old Coats in the Desert: Nyomi cleaning her closet (her "Achilles heel")Cleans it out several times a year, donates bags, yet it's STILL fullPulling out old garments from her design days, pieces that don't fit, haven't worn in foreverMultiple coats fall down—had them for OVER 15 YEARSLiving in Las Vegas (THE DESERT!) where she barely wears coats"Maybe I wore them once or twice, if that"Why kept them? Expensive, loved them once, represented a version of her that felt "fancy, put together, important"Looking at them now: felt NOTHING. They don't fit who she is. Just taking up space.The Honest Truth: She Taught This Before: "I have to be real with y'all. I've taught this before."A year or two ago: episode called "Clearing Space to Receive: A Journey of Physical and Mental Liberation"Talked about clearing closet, clearing life, making spaceTHOUGHT she had done the workBut those 15-year-old coats? STILL THERE.When Mel's post appeared: "That was definitely God. That was definitely the universe reminding me: there's more work to do, Nyomi.""There's always another layer. Growth is a spiral, not a line."WHO THIS EPISODE IS FOR ✨ Anyone who's cleaned their closet multiple times and it's STILL overwhelming ✨ People holding onto clothes from old chapters, old bodies, old versions ✨ Anyone who feels stuck when they open their closet ✨ Those ready to do the deeper work (not just organize—RECLAIM) ✨ People who resonate with "growth is a spiral, not a line" KEY TAKEAWAYS Divine Timing: Mel Robbins' post appeared EXACTLY when Nyomi was spring cleaningThe universe/God redirected her May seriesSometimes the signs are that obviousCONNECT WITH NYOMI Personal IG: @TheRealNyomiBanks (spelled N-Y-O-M-I) Podcast IG: @TheSeasonofSelfLovePodcast Website: AskNyomi.com Tell Nyomi: What old identity is hanging in YOUR closet? 2026 YEARLY THEME: RECLAIMED & UNASHAMED May 2026 Monthly Theme: Reclaiming Your Closet - Unashamed Letting Go Week 1: Your Closet is a Map of Your Past Selves ✨ SHARE YOUR REFLECTION After listening, journal on the 5 reflection questions and share your biggest takeaway on Instagram.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me What if rest isn't laziness? What if rest is expansion? In this Action Wednesday episode, Nyomi walks you through practical exercises to create your rest practice, identify where you're doing too much vs. being enough, and take responsibility without judgment. This is the work of unashamed expansion. Bring your journal and get ready to honor your body. **In This Episode:** - Exercise 1: Where is your body asking you to rest? (5 questions to identify signals you've been ignoring) - Exercise 2: Doing too much vs. Being enough (balancing the DOING list with the BEING list) - Exercise 3: Taking responsibility without judgment (reframing with the formula from the 6th card) - Exercise 4: Creating your rest practice (ONE specific, timed, non-negotiable commitment) - Addressing the guilt: "But I have so much to do..." - The choice: Rest now on your terms, or rest later when your body forces you - Real examples from Nyomi's life (altar time, saying no, lying down, pushing back deadlines) - The 7-Day Rest Challenge **The 4 Exercises:** 1. **Where is your body asking you to rest?** - Physical symptoms, when they started, what you're telling yourself, what your body is actually saying 2. **Doing vs. Being** - List everything you're doing, mark what drains you, identify where you need to BE more 3. **Taking responsibility without judgment** - "I take responsibility for [action], but I do not judge myself for [being human]" 4. **Your rest practice** - ONE specific form of rest, made specific and timed, with prepared responses to blocks **Your Rest Practice Options:** - Sleep (30 min earlier) - Stillness (10 min silence) - Movement (gentle stretching/walking) - Saying No (decline one draining commitment) - Support (ask for help with one thing) - Boundaries (protect one hour for nothing) **The Formula:** "I take responsibility for [action/situation], but I do not judge myself for [being human]." **Your Challenge:** Do your rest practice every day for 7 days.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me What if expansion doesn't always feel like moving forward? What if sometimes it feels like your body forcing you to stop? What if being "too much" means you're DOING too much and not BEING enough? In this raw, honest Mindset Monday, Nyomi shares what happened this weekend—chronic migraines in rare form, the mental battle between her human side and her soul side, and the powerful Monday morning altar moment that changed everything. Six cards fell out. A photo from years ago appeared. And every single message spoke directly to where she is RIGHT NOW. This is about redefining expansion. About taking responsibility without judgment. About honoring your body when it asks you to rest. About recognizing that sometimes the discomfort IS the expansion.  If you've ever felt like you can't afford to rest while everything is happening—this episode is for you.  IN THIS EPISODE The Migraine Weekend: Chronic migraines in rare form—the kind of pain that makes you question everythingExpensive medication ($1000+ even with insurance) that doesn't even workSaturday morning: 6 hours of full gratitude, then knocked back down by unbearable painLying in bed thinking: "I can't afford to rest. I'm expanding. There's too much to do."Never once thinking: "Maybe the best medicine for me right now is to rest"The Battle: Human Side vs. Soul Side: Human side screaming: "I can't afford to lay here. I'm getting everything I asked for."All weekend: sleeping on and off, body cleansing itself, head so heavyFighting the rest, fighting the stillness, fighting the pauseRest = falling behind / not being productive / missing opportunitiesThe story: "How can I afford to rest when my dreams are coming true?"Monday Morning Altar Moment: "Let's start this week over"Shower, then altarLit candles, saged the room (golden rose room), saged bodyPrayed for guidance, strength, help with tongue, words to self, visions, stepsAsked: "Are there any messages for me today?"Six cards fell out of the deckThe Six Cards That Spoke: Do Your Best Because You Love It - "Do your best and take action because you love it, not because you expect a reward. When you take action without expecting a reward, you enjoy every action and you can even receive greater rewards than you imagined."Sacral Chakra - Abundance - "I am worthy and I deserve an abundance of anything that I require. I watch my thoughts to ensure that I am honouring and respecting myself. I honour myself by knowing that I am worthy to receive. I am open to receive—now! I remind myself that it is a sign of strength to ask for help."Stay Present - New Dream - "Keep your attention on today, and stay in the present moment. This is the beginning of a new understanding. A new dream."Don't Take It Personally - "When you see other people as they are without taking it personally, you can never be hurt by what they say or do. Even if others lie to you, it is okay. They are lying to you because they are afraid you will discover that they are not perfect."Throat Chakra - Truthfulness - "I am truthful and honest with myself. I aim to overcome any fears about speaking my truth, and I speak in a loving and considerate way."Being Impeccable (THE KEY) - "Being impeccable, you take responsibility for your actions, but you do NOT judge or blame yourself for anything."The Photo: A photo from years ago popped up while taking pictures of the cardsNyomi standing tall, full red head, fully in her powerShe was already living it. She was already expansive. She just didn't know it yet.The Chills & The Lesson: Chills down her spine when she saw it all togetherThe universe was telling her what her human side didn't want to hearExpansion doesn't always look like MORE. Sometimes it looks like STOP.Sometimes expansion means your body forcing you to rest so you can receiveSometimes being "too much" means you're DOING too much and not BEING enoughWhat Unashamed Expansion Really Means: We think expansion means: Doing moreBeing visible everywhereSaying yes to everythingHustling harderNever stoppingAlways pushing forwardBut what if expansion also means: Resting moreBeing selective about where you show upSaying no to protect your energyHonoring your limitsPausing when your body asks you toReceiving instead of always givingYou Already Carry Everything You Need: That photo showed: she was already living it years agoI don't need to do more to prove my worthI don't need to hustle harder to deserve restI don't need to be productive every second to be valuableI already have everything I need. I just need to stop long enough to receive it.The Tension: Expansion isn't always comfortableSometimes expansion hurtsSometimes it feels like pressure, like your body betraying you, like everything falling apartIn those moments, we judge ourselves, blame ourselvesBut what if the discomfort IS the expansion?What if the pain is your body saying: "Slow down. Integrate. Receive."What if rest IS the medicine? What if pausing IS the progress?This Week's Focus: Honoring your body when it asks you to restTaking responsibility without judging yourselfRecognizing that expansion isn't always comfortableUnderstanding that sometimes you have to STOP to RECEIVETrusting that you already carry everything you need5 REFLECTION QUESTIONS FOR THE WEEK Question 1: Where is my body asking me to rest that I'm ignoring? Be honest. Where are you pushing through when you should be pausing? Where is your body saying "stop" and you're saying "not yet"? Question 2: Where am I judging or blaming myself for being human? Where are you taking responsibility AND adding judgment? Where are you telling yourself you're falling behind or failing because you need rest, because you're tired, because you can't do it all? Question 3: What does expansion look like when it's uncomfortable? When have you expanded in ways that didn't feel like progress? When has growth felt like being knocked down? When has rest been the medicine? Question 4: What am I doing too much of, and what do I need to BE more of? Where are you DOING when you should be BEING? Where are you hustling when you should be receiving? Where are you proving when you should be resting? Question 5: What do I already carry that I've been looking for outside myself? What are you seeking—peace, worth, validation, rest, abundance—that you already have within you? What are you chasing that's already here? CLOSING AFFIRMATION I am expanding even when it's uncomfortable. I honor my body when it asks me to rest. I take responsibility without judging myself. I am worthy of receiving now. I already carry everything I need. I am unashamed of my expansion. I am unashamed of being "too much." I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am expanding.

Fresh off a joy-filled production week, Nyomi shares the story of bringing back the original Chicago cast 10 years later, working 15-hour days fueled by gratitude, and almost getting lost in the "Hollywood set" mindset before being reminded of her other calling by Dr. Will's text.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me What if you removed just ONE phrase from your vocabulary this week? What if you spoke directly, clearly, unapologetically—just once? In this Action Wednesday episode, Nyomi walks you through practical exercises to identify YOUR specific qualifiers, swap them for direct language, and commit to one conversation this week without softening your message. This isn't theory. This is practice. Bring your journal and get ready to do the work. In This Episode:** - Exercise 1: Your Qualifier Inventory (4 categories: Apology, Uncertainty, Minimizing, Hedging) - Exercise 2: The Swap - Before and After (5 common scenarios with direct alternatives) - Exercise 3: Your Real-World Scenarios (practicing with YOUR actual conversations) - Why removing qualifiers feels uncomfortable (and why to do it anyway) - The One Conversation Challenge (your bold action for the week) - Real examples from Nyomi's production week - What success actually looks like (hint: it's not perfection) ** The 4 Types of Qualifiers:** 1. **Apology Qualifiers:** "I'm sorry, but..." "Sorry to bother you..." 2. **Uncertainty Qualifiers:** "I might be wrong, but..." "This might be dumb, but..." 3. **Minimizing Qualifiers:** "Just wondering..." "It's just a thought..." 4. **Hedging Qualifiers:** "Kind of..." "Maybe..." "Perhaps..." **Before and After Examples:** - ❌ "Sorry to interrupt, but I was just wondering if maybe..." - ✅ "I have a question about..." - ❌ "This might be dumb, but what if we sort of tried..." - ✅ "I have an idea. What if we [specific idea]?" ❌ "I'm so sorry, and I know you're busy, but maybe I can't make it?"- ✅ "I need to cancel tonight. Can we reschedule?" **Your Bold Action:** Choose ONE conversation this week. Have it without qualifiers. That's it. **Prepare for it:** 1. Write the direct version 2. Practice it out loud 3. Take 3 deep breaths before 4. Speak directly during 5. Journal after **Share Your Commitment:** Instagram: Tag or DM @TheSeasonofSelfLovepodcast with "This week, I'm having [conversation] without qualifiers" **Next Episode:** Mindset Monday - Week 3: Unashamed Joy (Pleasure Without Guilt) **Connect with Nyomi:** - Website: AskNyomi.com - Instagram: @AskNyomi @TheSeasonofselflovepodcast - Tune in: Ask Nyomi Bridging the Gap - Thursdays **Episode Hashtags:** #ActionWednesday #SeasonOfSelfLove #UnashamedVoice #DirectCommunication #RemoveQualifiers #SpeakClearly #NoApologies #ConfidentCommunication Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-season-of-self-love--6003379/support.

But instead, she shows up—because using your voice even when it's hard IS the lesson.  In this raw, honest Mindset Monday, Nyomi shares how she learned to catch herself softening her voice with qualifiers like "I'm sorry, but..." and "This might be dumb, but..." She talks about creating a Four Agreements book for her production team, Joe Dispenza's quantum leap concept, and why your voice doesn't need to be softened to be valid. Week 2 is about Unashamed Voice—speaking without apologizing, without qualifying, without shrinking. This is growth. In This Episode: Why Nyomi is recording after 24 hours awake (the lesson IS showing up)Joe Dispenza's quantum leap: seeing your future self on stage instead of spiralingCreating a Four Agreements book for production (leadership through voice)The qualifiers we use to weaken our messageWhy we've been conditioned to soften (especially women, especially BIPOC)The difference between kind and soft (you can be both kind AND direct)What happens when you stop softening your voiceFuture self visualization: How does she speak?5 reflection questions to identify where and how you softenKey Takeaway: Your voice doesn't need to be softened to be valid. You can be kind AND direct. You can be compassionate AND clear. Stop apologizing for speaking.  Week 2 Focus: Unashamed Voice - Speaking Without Apologizing Reflection Questions: Where do I soften my voice the most?What am I afraid will happen if I don't soften my voice?What qualifiers do I use most often?Who is my future self, and how does she speak?What would I say differently today if I spoke without softening?Connect with Nyomi: Website: AskNyomi.comInstagram: @AskNyomi (Tell me: What qualifier are you ready to let go of?)Tune in: Ask Nyomi Bridging the Gap - ThursdaysNext Episode: Action Wednesday - Removing the Qualifiers (practical exercises) Episode Hashtags: #SeasonOfSelfLove #ReclaimedAndUnashamed #MindsetMonday #UnashamedVoice #SpeakWithoutSoftening #NoApologies #DirectCommunication #ImpeccabilityOfTheWord Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-season-of-self-love--6003379/support.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me "Have you seen any growth from me?" This weekend, someone Nyomi loves asked her this five-word question—and shame almost kept her from answering honestly. In this powerful season premiere for April, Nyomi shares the story of choosing truth over comfort, the moment shame tried to creep in, and why she chose to speak her truth with compassion anyway. After a month of reclaiming boundaries in March, April is about what you do with the space those boundaries created. It's about growing boldly, visibly, and unapologetically—even when your growth doesn't look like what others expect.  NEW FORMAT ALERT: April is action month. Mindset Monday introduces the weekly theme. Action Wednesday (replacing Wisdom Wednesday) gives you the tools to implement it. No guests this month—just you, Nyomi, and the work of growing unapologetically. IN THIS EPISODE The Weekend & The Altar Moment:Nyomi wakes up at her altar feeling heavy after a weekend of both amazing and life-altering events for loved onesEven in the hard moments, she saw the blessing, the growth, the opportunity hidden in difficultyThe heaviness wasn't about the weekend—it was about a conversation and a question she was afraid to answer honestlyThe Five-Word Question:"Have you seen any growth from me?"One honest question from someone she lovesThe moment she realized they might be measuring two different thingsThe Problem with Defining Growth:Some people think growth means: career advancement, buying a home, getting the promotion, checking boxes—external markers everyone can seeFor others (like Nyomi): growth means becoming a better you, finding who you are, self-love journey, not being limited by expectations or fearGrowth means healing, setting boundaries, showing up when it's hard, choosing yourselfThe Shame That Tried to Creep In:Shame whispered: "Don't say what you really think. Don't hurt their feelings. Just tell them what they want to hear."What if her definition of their growth isn't what they're looking for?What if she honors their internal journey but they think she's saying they haven't accomplished anything?Shame said: "Just shrink. Just make it easy. Just say yes and move on."The pause was long and loud—the quietest, loudest moment of the conversationThe Choice to Speak Truth with Compassion:"First, know that this is coming from love.""Yes, I've seen your growth. I've seen you become more aware. I've seen you set boundaries you wouldn't have set before. I've seen you ask for help when you used to suffer in silence. I've seen you show up for yourself. I've seen you healing."Then the critical insight: "The fact that you're sitting here asking me this question means you're aware that more growth is needed or warranted on your part. And that awareness? That's growth too."5 Lessons About Growth:Growth has no single definition - What looks like growth to you might not look like growth to someone else. You don't have to measure your growth by someone else's ruler. You don't have to apologize for growing in ways that don't fit the script.Shame will try to silence your truth about growth - Shame will tell you that your version of growth isn't "real" growth. Shame will make you apologize for growing slowly. But shame is a liar.Growth requires space - You can't grow in a space where you're constantly being drained, violated, dismissed, or shrunk. The boundaries you set in March created the space for April's growth.Asking for validation is growth - If you're asking "Am I growing?" that means you're aware, paying attention, not on autopilot. Asking is part of the process. Asking is growth.Unashamed growth means defining it for yourself and standing in it boldly - You don't have to shrink your definition of growth to make other people comfortable. You can grow quietly, internally, in ways only you can see. And it still counts.The Bathroom Story (Real-Life Example):Nyomi shares a perfect example of unashamed growth: redecorating her downstairs bathroomShe took down silver wallpaper, got green paint swatches three months ago, finally committedStarted second-guessing: "I think I'm doing too much"Her husband reminded her: "You be you. You've done so much work to be comfortable in your skin. When people walk into our home, they walk in one way, when they leave, they leave another way."The bathroom is part of her sanctuary, part of transformation, part of truthIt's a reflection of her—and being unashamed of that reflection is growth"It just happened to be the color green"Introducing: The Season of Growth (Unashamed)April theme: Unashamed GrowthAfter reclaiming boundaries in March, now it's time to say YES—to expansion, blooming, taking up space, becoming more of who you already areDoing this without shame, guilt, or making ourselves smallNEW FORMAT: Mindset Monday + Action WednesdayPause on Wisdom Wednesday guests for April (guests return in May)Mindset Monday: Introduces the weekly theme, shares story, teaches lesson, sets intentionAction Wednesday: Tools, exercises, challenges, practical implementation steps"Growth doesn't happen by thinking about it. Growth happens by doing."Week 1 Focus: Unashamed Space (Taking Up Room to Grow)A lot of us created boundaries in March—we said no, protected our peace, cleared spaceBut now that we have the space... we're afraid to fill itWe shrink, make ourselves small, apologize for needing space, feel guilty for having boundariesThis week: addressing fear of taking up space, shame around expansion, guilt around bloomingAction Wednesday preview: Identify where you have space now, name what you want to grow there, take one bold visible action to claim it5 Reflection Questions for the Week:How do I define growth for myself? (Not how parents/friends/society define it—how do YOU define it? What does it look like, feel like? What matters to you?)Where have I been ashamed of my growth because it doesn't look like what I "should" be doing? (Where have you apologized for growing slowly? Shrunk your progress? Dismissed your healing because it's not a promotion/house/relationship?)What space did my boundaries create in March? (Time? Energy? Emotional bandwidth? Physical space? Mental clarity? What opened up when you started saying no?)What am I afraid to fill that space with? (Be honest. What do you want to grow but you're scared to claim? What do you want to pursue but you're afraid people will judge? What do you want to expand into but you feel guilty about?)What would unashamed growth look like for me this month? (If you didn't care what anyone thought, how would you grow? If shame wasn't a factor, what would you pursue? If you were completely free, what would you bloom into?)EPISODE AFFIRMATION I define my own growth.  I honor my journey without apologizing. I claim the space my boundaries created. I bloom boldly, visibly, and unapologetically.  I am unashamed of my season of growth.  I am unashamed of taking up space. I am unashamed of becoming more of who I already am.  I am reclaimed. I am unashamed. I am growing.  APRIL 2026 THEME BREAKDOWN The Season of Growth: Unashamed Week 1: Unashamed Space (Taking Up Room to Grow)Week 2: Unashamed Voice (Speaking Without Softening)Week 3: Unashamed Joy (Pleasure Without Guilt)Week 4:Just Be True ~ A Soul-Led PodcastJust Be True is a podcast about spiritual awakening, self-discovery, and real...Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify --- ## 💬 CONNECT WITH ME **Text or Voice Note:** Use the link below to send me a message or voice note directly through Buzzsprout.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me In this powerful final Mindset Monday of the month, Nyomi Banks closes out the Reclaiming Your Boundaries series with a heartfelt reflection on what it really means to choose yourself—without apology, without guilt, and without shrinking to keep others comfortable. This episode isn’t just a recap—it’s a celebration.  Nyomi reminds you that boundaries aren’t walls meant to shut people out. They’re bridges that lead you back home to yourself. Throughout March, you didn’t just talk about boundaries—you practiced them in real time: boundaries with fear, shame, old patterns, people-pleasing, overworking, and even the internal voice that tries to keep you small. With grounding, truth-telling, and tenderness, Nyomi invites you to honor how far you’ve come and step into what’s next with clarity and confidence. Inside this reflection episode, Nyomi revisits the key wisdom from March’s guest conversations—including somatic “yes/no” tools, leaving self-abandonment behind, saying no to shame, and choosing joy as a boundary against fear. She also shares her own lived lessons: setting boundaries with reactive language, navigating caregiving with intention, and learning that healing and living can happen at the same time. In this episode, you’ll reflect on:Why boundaries are bridges (not walls) and how they reconnect you to your truthThe real purpose of boundaries: peace, autonomy, self-respect, and protectionHow boundaries reveal who respects you—and who benefits from your lack of themWhat you learned about your voice, your energy, and your relationships this month5 journal prompts to help you integrate March and commit to your next 30 daysA closing affirmation to anchor your growth and celebrate your winsIf you’ve been learning to say “no” without guilt, stop explaining yourself, rest without apology, or finally take up space—this episode is your reminder: you are not the same person you were at the beginning of the month. You are stronger, clearer, and freer. And you’re just getting started.  Keywords: reclaiming boundaries, March reflection, mindset Monday, self-love podcast, Nyomi Banks, people pleasing recovery, emotional boundaries, healing journey, self-trust, boundaries and guilt, boundaries and relationships, inner critic, caregiving boundaries, speaking life, impeccable words, personal growth, reclaimed and unashamed March 2026 Episodes Mentioned:Michael Ostrolenk (March 4) - Somatic BoundariesTracy Smith (March 11) - People-Pleasing to Self-TrustRussell Van Brocklen (March 18) - Shame-Free LearningTerry Bean - Reclaimed & Unashamed Joy: Remembering the Magic WithinMindset Monday: Breaking Free from the Recovery BubbleMindset Monday: Impeccability of the WordConnect with Nyomi:Website: AskNyomi.comInstagram: @AskNyomi (Tell me: What boundary are you most proud of this month?)Tune in: Ask Nyomi Bridging the Gap - Thursdays  Tags: #ReclaimingYourBoundaries #Boundaries #SelfLove #MindsetMonday #NyomiBanks #PeoplePleasing #SelfTrust #EmotionalHealing #PersonalGrowth #ReclaimedAndUnashamed #HealingIntentionally #BoundariesAreBridges #SpeakLife #InnerCritic #SelfRespect Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-season-of-self-love--6003379/support.

Her mantra—"Everything is always working out for me"—has guided her through multiple careers, cross-country moves, business crashes, and now, caregiving for her mother back in New York. Her debut children's book, "Abracadabra," was conceived in 2010 and published in 2024. It tells the story of Dani, a young girl who discovers her inner power through her reflection in a lake. Terry's vision is to help children understand they have the power within them to create beautiful lives—and in turn, grow into kinder, more connected adults. Terry has been told she has "a voice for radio" (and we agree!), and her warm, grounding presence is felt immediately. She's dabbled in voiceover work, built businesses, and lived many lives—all with joy, curiosity, and an unshakeable belief that everything is always working out.  ABOUT "ABRACADABRA" - THE BOOK The Story: Dani is running away from her parents who are fighting. She finds herself by a lake, sees her reflection in the water, and discovers a branch that she carves into a wand. Her reflection becomes her sage—her inner guide—teaching her about the power she carries within her through every stage of life. The Illustrator: Junaid Adi (Jay), visual arts director of kidsbookart.com, created 15 beautiful illustrations in one month. He called it "the most inspirational child's book I've ever read."

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Your word is a spell. A seed. A sword. A sanctuary. In this deeply personal Mindset Monday, Nyomi shares a powerful story about her mother (who has Alzheimer's dementia) and how choosing impeccable words in a triggering moment created heaven on earth instead of hell. This episode is for anyone who's ever said something they regret, anyone carrying heavy emotional labor, and anyone ready to reclaim their power by cleaning up the way they speak—to themselves and to the people they love.  In This Episode:Spring cleaning as a spiritual metaphorNyomi's real story: The conversation with her mother about dementiaWhat "impeccability of the word" actually means in everyday lifeTwo lanes of speech: words that destroy vs. words that createThe 3-Step Word Reset for triggering momentsSpecial message for caregivers and those holding emotional laborThe 24-Hour Impeccable Word ChallengeKey Takeaway: Your word can create the most beautiful dream, or your word can destroy everything around you. Impeccability of the word only creates beauty, love, and heaven on earth.

What if your "difference" isn't a deficit—but your superpower? In this powerful Wisdom Wednesday conversation, Nyomi sits down with Russell Van Brocklen—educator, advocate, and champion for shame-free learning—to talk about breaking cycles of shame, understanding how dyslexic brains work differently, and reclaiming your voice even when the world tried to silence you.

In this powerful Wisdom Wednesday episode, Nyomi Banks sits down with transformation coach and author Peter Kolat (aka “Polish Peter”), creator of the Seven Human Drives Framework and author of Authentic Self-Rebirth. Together, they explore what it really means to heal your past, reclaim your identity, and rewrite your future—without pretending the pain never happened. You’ll hear Peter’s inspiring story of immigrating to the U.S. at 14 years old with zero English, landing in Detroit with a head full of “Hollywood expectations,” and learning how to stop resisting uncertainty and start building belonging from the inside out. Nyomi and Peter also dive into the truth about identity: how it often gets tied to external roles, validation, and survival patterns—and how real transformation begins when you reconnect to who you are beneath the conditioning. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why uncertainty isn’t something to fear—but something to flow withHow to rebuild identity when the “old version of you” no longer fitsWhat “optimistic depression” is (and how to recognize it in your own life)The first steps to healing: awareness, vulnerability, and questioning old beliefsWhy affirmations don’t work without emotion + a strong “why”How to rewrite your story without spiritual bypassing (honor the pain, extract the lesson, create the future)A preview of Peter’s Seven Human Drives Framework—and how your top drives shape your behavior, relationships, and self-sabotage patternsNyomi also shares personal reflections from her own rebirth journey, including her explant transformation and what it means to step into 2026 as Reclaimed & Unashamed—not by erasing the past, but by telling the truth about it and choosing yourself anyway.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Hey my beautiful people—quick note before we begin. Today’s episode is a special vault release—a conversation I recorded earlier that I didn’t get to share when it first aired. And honestly, it’s right on time. Because our 2026 theme is Reclaimed & Unashamed, and this episode is all about reinvention, grief, creativity, and choosing yourself again. So take what you need, let it meet you where you are, and let’s get into it.In this powerful episode of The Season of Self-Love Podcast, Nyomi Banks is joined by Gregory Coppola (artist, author, and creative force) and Dani Foster (writer, spiritual guide, and co-author) for a deep conversation inspired by their book I Am Pink.Together, they explore what happens when you stop chasing the “formula” you were taught—work harder, achieve more, stay small, keep the mask on—and instead surrender to the truth of who you are becoming. This episode is a heartfelt blend of reflection, grief processing, spiritual alignment, and creative rebirth, and it’s especially for anyone who feels like they’re standing in the hallway of life—unsure which door to open next.In this episode, we talk about:Reinvention after burnout: Gregory shares what it looked like to walk away from Hollywood and the reward system that promised happiness—but delivered emptiness.Grief as a turning point: Dani opens up about losing her husband to pancreatic cancer and how grief reshaped her identity, her voice, and her path.Surrender as a spiritual practice: How letting go of control can open the door to a life you couldn’t have designed on your own.Creativity as medicine: Why art, writing, and storytelling can hold you together while you’re rebuilding your life.Breaking the “formula”: The pressure to be who the world expects—and what it takes to reclaim your truth.Visibility, courage, and self-love: Being seen can feel risky, but hiding costs you your life force.Community and chosen connection: The power of having someone who can hold space for your messy becoming.Key takeaways (Reclaimed & Unashamed energy):You are allowed to outgrow who you used to be.You can honor grief without letting it define your future.Self-love isn’t always soft—it can be messy, brave, and disruptive.Your creativity isn’t “extra.” It may be the very thing that brings you back to yourself.About the guests:Gregory Coppola is an artist, author, and entrepreneur. He’s the founder of Stir Up the Paint, a paint-and-sip experience built around creativity, connection, and transformation.Dani Foster is a writer and spiritual guide who supports others in reclaiming their truth through reflection, intuitive tools, and deep self-inquiry.Mentioned in this episode:I Am Pink (book) — available on Amazon (print + Kindle) and Audible (audiobook)Gregory Coppola: gregorycoppola.comIf this episode resonated:Share it with someone who’s reinventing themselves, grieving a version of their old life, or trying to find their way back to their truth. And if you’re stepping into 2026 with us—Reclaimed & Unashamed—leave a review so more beautiful souls can find this healing space.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me What if gratitude isn’t just a feeling, but an energy that wants to move through you and become action? In this powerful Mindset Monday episode, host Naomi Banks closes out the November “Giving Back” series and the final show of the year by exploring how true gratitude naturally overflows into service. This is not about performative “I’m thankful” posts—it’s about becoming a living “thank you” with your life. Naomi guides you through a grounding heart-centered meditation, then unpacks: How gratitude becomes generosity when we let it move, not just sit inside usThe difference between serving from guilt vs. serving from gratitude (and why one burns you out and the other fills you up)Her personal journey from struggle to purpose to service—from adult industry stigma and shame to spiritual awakening, self-love, and advocacyHow her grandmother, her explant surgeon Dr. Sood, and BII advocate Laura Bowden shaped her calling and how she now honors them through her serviceWhy abundance mindset (“I get to give”) transforms how you show up for othersHow joy, purpose, and healing deepen when you serve from your overflow, not your emptinessYou’ll also get practical reflection prompts and a “gratitude-to-action” practice: Write down 10 people or experiences you’re grateful forChoose one person to honor by serving someone else in their nameFor every blessing, commit to one act of service—letting gratitude become motion, not just emotionNyomi reminds you that gratitude and service are two sides of the same coin: You are blessed, and you are a blessing. As this year’s “Rebirth” theme closes and next year’s “Reclaimed & Unashamed” begins, this episode invites you to carry a new truth into the next season: service isn’t meant to drain you—it’s meant to renew you. Listen in if you’re ready to let your grateful heart become giving hands.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  In this powerful episode of The Season of Self-Love Podcast, host Nyomi Banks sits down with Dr. Victoria “Dr. V” Medvec—speaker, mental health advocate, organizational psychologist, and author of Act Like an Ally, Work with an Ally—to explore how service, vulnerability, and allyship all connect back to self-love. Dr. V shares her deeply personal journey with mental illness, cancer, and alopecia—and how choosing to shave her head and “own” her baldness became an act of radical self-acceptance. She also talks about burning out in traditional workplaces, then creating a company that actually honors humanity, flexibility, and mental health. In This Episode, You’ll Hear About: How living with invisible and visible challenges shaped Dr. V’s purposeHer decision to shave her remaining hair and why she sees that as winning, not losingWhat it means to build a workplace that doesn’t require people to sacrifice their well-beingThe moment she pulled her wig off on stage during a talk and reintroduced herself, fully vulnerableWhy vulnerability is a bridge to deeper connection, not a weaknessHow to give from a place of overflow instead of depletionThe real meaning of allyship—and why “ally” is not a label you give yourselfHow her book Act Like an Ally, Work with an Ally is literally two books in one, designed to be read in partnershipKey Themes & Takeaways: Vulnerability as Strength: Sharing your story (cancer, mental health, alopecia, grief) can unlock connection, support, and healing—for you and others.Self-Love & Service: Serving others from a full cup is part of self-love; serving from depletion leads to resentment and burnout.Allyship as Action: Ally is a verb, not an identity. True allyship is a two-way partnership between the ally and the person they’re supporting.Daily Check-In Practice: Ask yourself:What’s one thing I did today that served others?What’s one thing I did today that served myself?About the Book: Act Like an Ally, Work with an Ally is a dual-sided book: one side for allies, one side for partners (those receiving allyship). The two sides reference each other and are designed to be used together—perfect for teams, leaders, and anyone committed to real inclusion.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a Wisdom Wednesday conversation with coach Jamie Lerner. Explore how community service becomes an extension of self-love, why you must fill your cup before giving to others, and how authentic service transforms both giver and receiver. In This Episode: Why self-love must come before service to othersThe difference between giving from a full cup vs. an empty oneHow to find service opportunities that align with your authentic selfOvercoming burnout and the "should" mentality in givingJamie's powerful story about her mother and self-connectionAbout Jamie Lerner: Jamie is a coach, connector, and lifelong advocate of living from alignment and purpose. She brings a beautiful perspective on how community service becomes an extension of self-love. Key Insights: Service Starts with Self-Love: "We need to be in a place where we are loving ourselves before we can authentically be in service to others. Once we're in that place, it never feels like service. It's just the natural extension of who we are. "The Full Cup Philosophy: You can't give from an empty cup without resentmentReceivers can feel when giving comes from someone who isn't full enough"Put your own mask on first"—but this is counterintuitive, especially for womenSelf-service first—it's a lose-lose when you don'tJamie's Morning Practice: First thing in the morning, identify one thing you appreciate about yourself—not what someone else appreciates, but what YOU appreciate about you for you. When to Give:  "When you are in alignment and feeling good about yourself, opportunities present themselves. Then we say yes—there's no hesitation. It's just a yes. "The "Should" vs. "Could" Distinction: Don't give because you think you should—that doesn't feel good. Give because you could and want to.Jamie's Personal Journey:Raised in Service: Grew up in a home where service was the foundation. Home always filled with people from all over the world. Parents' motto: "If there's a will, there's a way." Raised to feel it's a privilege to serve others.Why She Volunteers: "It almost feels selfish on my part. I'm getting so much out of it. "Her Mother's Story: Jamie had no emotional connection with her mother her entire life, despite being extremely connected to herself. When her mother was transitioning in the ICU, Jamie finally felt all the love pour through. Then her mother passed.Jamie realized: Her mother couldn't connect with her because she wasn't connected with herself. This became her book's message—connection with ourselves is the basis for every other connection. Jamie's Superpower:  Born with inner knowing and self-connection. "I was impossible to be influenced. I only heard the sound of my own voice." That self-connection is now her superpower. Listener Q&A: Q: How can I give back when I'm still healing myself? Jamie: "When you're still healing, giving back is maybe not the priority. Use that energy for yourself. Actually, the healing IS the giving back." Q: What's something small I can do to make a difference? Jamie: "Just being present in anyone's space, you are making a difference. When you are present, that is such a present for others ."Powerful Truths: "Know yourself, trust yourself, love yourself—you are your own greatest resource.""Healing is not a destination—healing is an ongoing process.""We need to get back to trusting ourselves, knowing ourselves, loving ourselves. That's where it all is. There's nothing outside of us."Nyomi's Insights: Bob Proctor quote: "I'm being me for me—not for my wife or children or the world, but me for me."Her therapist's advice: Don't fill your cup halfway—let it overflow so others receive your overflowOn today's world: "Tap into the God within you. Outside of you, it's going to be crazy. Find the strength within you."Perfect for listeners interested in: Service without burnout, self-connection, authentic alignment, overcoming the "should" mentality, self-love practices.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a Mindset Monday exploring how to discover your unique calling to serve. Stop trying to serve in ways that drain you and find the intersection where your gifts meet the world's needs—your service sweet spot. In This Episode: • The 5 T's of service: Time, Talent, Treasure, Testimony, and Touch • Why service shouldn't feel like obligation or burden  • How to identify your natural gifts (even the ones you overlook)  • The difference between alignment and obligation  • Why small acts create big impacts • Practical exercises to discover your service sweet spot this week The 5 Forms of Service: Time - Showing up, being present, volunteering hours Talent - Using your specific skills (podcasting, writing, design, teaching, organizing) Treasure - Financial support, donations, supporting small businesses Testimony - Sharing your story so others don't feel alone Touch - Physical presence, hugs, sitting in silence, energy healing You don't have to do all 5. Pay attention to which 1-2 make your spirit say "YES, that's me!" Three Questions to Identify Your Gifts: 1. What do you do effortlessly that others struggle with? Nyomi's example: Creating safe space for hard conversations, sitting with pain without fixing it. From childhood, people always stopped her for advice (called her "the Black Dear Abby"). 2. What activities make you lose track of time? Your gifts are connected to your joy. Nyomi's example: Deep conversations for hours feel like 20 minutes; working on podcast content and forgetting to eat 3. What do people constantly ask you for help with? These aren't random requests—they're mirrors reflecting your gifts. What are YOU the go-to person for? Alignment vs. Obligation: Critical Truth: If service constantly drains you, it's NOT your calling. Service shouldn't feel like a burdenHealthy service flows from your gifts and energizes youSaying no to some forms of service isn't selfish—it's stewardship of your giftsNyomi's Burnout Story: Said yes to everything early in her journey. Result: Burnt out, exhausted, resentful. Started asking before saying yes: "Is this aligned with my gifts? Does this energize me?" Her service became MORE powerful when she gave from alignment, not obligation. Example: The Fashion Show A friend asked Nyomi to help coordinate a fashion show. She knew it wasn't aligned but said yes out of obligation. Nothing worked. She got ill. Days later, her friend texted: "Spiritual guidance told me I'm not supposed to do this." God/the universe had to say no FOR her. The Power of Small Acts: You don't need a nonprofit, platform, or impressive-looking service. Sometimes the most powerful service is quiet and small: Daily TikTok encouragement notes (5-10 minutes)Kind word to a tired cashierTexting "thinking about you today"The way you raise your children (breaking generational curses)Modeling self-love so others learn they can love themselves tooDon't diminish small acts done with great love. You don't have to change the whole world—just change someone's day. Practical Exercise for This Week: Step 1: List 5 things you're naturally good at (not trained skills—natural gifts) Step 2: Which bring you joy when you share them? Circle those—they're your clues. Step 3: Take ONE aligned action this week that flows from your gifts. Notice: Does it energize or deplete you? Affirmation: "My gifts are unique and needed. I don't have to serve like anyone else. I serve like me. I release the pressure to do it all and embrace the freedom to do what I am called to do. Small acts with great love create big change." Perfect for listeners interested in:  Finding your unique purpose, serving without burnout, identifying natural gifts, setting boundaries, turning pain into purpose, creating ripple effects.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a transformative Wisdom Wednesday conversation with Christian de la Huerta—spiritual teacher, breathwork facilitator, and author with 30 years of experience guiding people through deep personal transformation. Explore how personal growth ties into collective healing and why conscious love is the foundation of authentic connection. In This Episode:  • Understanding the ego mind: Why we get stuck in power struggles  • The difference between intensity and intimacy in relationships • How unconscious wounds from childhood sabotage our relationships • Breathwork as a tool for healing past trauma stored in the body • Why self-knowledge is the foundation of loving others • The power of surrender as an empowering (not disempowering) act  • Distinguishing worldly power from soulful power • Why women's empowerment is critical for global healing About Christian de la Huerta: For 30 years, Christian has been guiding people through deep personal transformation. His wisdom spans spirituality, breathwork, and emotional healing.  His latest book, Conscious Love: Transforming Our Relationship to Relationships, helps people break through patterns that block real, meaningful connection. Key Concepts Explored: The Ego Mind Explained: Christian offers a powerful visual: "If you put a baseball in the center of a stadium, that's the ego. Who we are is actually the freaking stadium."The ego = sense of separate identity (the "I")We've allowed this tiny part of who we are to think it's ALL who we areThe ego makes important life choices from a limited, fear-based perspectiveUnderstanding the ego allows us to pause before reacting and choose our responseWhy Relationships Fail: Most people struggle with relationships because:We approach them expecting someone to "complete us" or "make us happy"We're running relationships from subconscious wounds we're not even aware ofWe react to present situations based on old hurts and childhood conclusionsWe suppress painful beliefs ("I'm not good enough") which then sabotage our relationshipsWe attract the wrong people or people who aren't available as a form of self-sabotageThe Honeymoon Phase vs. Real Love: Adapted from Scott Peck's The Road Less Traveled:Initial infatuation/lust = collapsed ego boundaries (feels amazing but temporary)When the honeymoon ends (3-9 months), ego walls come back upReal loving begins when the honeymoon endsLove isn't the feeling—it's the act of placing ourselves outside our comfort zone for another's spiritual growthWe confuse intensity with intimacy, lust with loveBreathwork for Healing Trauma: Christian teaches breathwork that heals past trauma quickly and effectively:Breathe in a circular connected way for 60-90 minutesBypasses the mind and goes directly to trauma stored in the bodyTalk therapy helps us understand why we do things, but trauma lives in the bodyBreathwork clears old wounds permanently—lives change after one sessionOriginally called "rebirthing" because people heal their birth trauma and resetThe Power of Surrender: From Christian's book Awakening the Soul of Power:Surrender is NOT giving up, wimping out, or throwing in the towelSurrender is an incredibly empowering and courageous actIt's about releasing control and allowing Spirit/God to leadMisunderstanding surrender keeps us stuck in ego-driven choicesTwo Types of Power:Worldly/Ego Power: Hierarchy, control, fear, force, domination—requires pushing others downSoulful Power: Gandhi, Dr. King, nonviolence—dramatic change without violenceGandhi brought the British Empire to its knees without shooting a gun or landing a punchWe reject power because we fear corruption, but in doing so, we give our power awayHow many times have we said "yes" when inside it was a "no"?Why Women's Empowerment Matters: From Awakening the Soul of Power:The single most important thing that needs to happen in the worldNot to idealize women or put them on a pedestalNot to give women more mess to clean upBecause we've been running off balance between masculine and feminine energies for 6,000+ yearsPatriarchy turned the feminine into "less than" and "weakness"—a twisted lie and instrument of controlNyomi's Personal Revelation: Nyomi shares her explant journey as an example of soulful power:Had breast implants for 20+ years, causing illnessInitially wasn't going to share her journey publicly (ego/insecurity)Realized: "How can you talk about self-love when you're moving from insecurity?""I used to say I'm 80% authentic—each boob was 10%. I needed to take them out to be 100% fully connected."Watched documentary Explant and saw how authorities dismissed women's voicesBlack box warnings exist on implants, but doctors aren't required to inform patientsMisuse of power: "They dismissed most of the women's voices"Now advocates for her daughters, granddaughter, and all womenPowerful Truths Shared:"How can we expect anybody to love us if we don't love ourselves? And how can we love ourselves if we don't know ourselves?""Love starts within. It all begins with self-knowledge and self-awareness.""Just because we suppress painful beliefs doesn't mean they go away—they fester under the surface.""We subconsciously sabotage relationships to ensure the very thing we're trying to avoid: ending up alone.""The breath is the beginning and end of everything. Breath is life.""When the honeymoon ends is when the work of actual loving begins.""Love is placing ourselves outside our comfort zone for the sake of another's spiritual growth."Christian's Spiritual Journey:Studied psychology; father was a psychiatristRealized psychology ignored spirituality—an integral part of being humanRaised Catholic, told he'd "burn in hell for eternity" for being gayHad to "throw the baby out with the baptismal water" and find other spiritual pathsExplored Eastern religions (Buddhism, Hinduism), indigenous traditionsSpent 20s achieving success but felt an "expanding hole in my gut—something was missing"Started searching for meaning, purpose, and authentic spiritual connectionPerfect for listeners interested in:Conscious relationships and breaking toxic patternsBreathwork and trauma healingUnderstanding the ego mindSpiritual awakening and personal powerWomen's empowerment and feminine energyLGBTQ+ spirituality and finding authentic faithService as a path to self-loveHealing childhood wounds affecting adult relationshipsChristian's Books:Coming Out Spiritually (first book)Awakening the Soul of Power (how to step into power without hierarchy, control, or domination)Conscious Love: Transforming Our Relationship to Relationships (latest—10 challenges we face in relationships)Connect with Christian de la Huerta:Website: SoulfulPower.comBooks available on Amazon or local bookstoresSocial media links available on websiteNovember Theme: Giving Back: The Power of Service and Community (Week 1) Series: Year of ReBirth 2025 - Season 4: The Season of Healing Intentionally This episode is a masterclass in understanding why relationships fail, how to heal trauma at its source, and why personal transformatioJust Be True ~ A Soul-Led PodcastJust Be True is a podcast about spiritual awakening, self-discovery, and real...Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify --- ## 💬 CONNECT WITH ME **Text or Voice Note:** Use the link below to send me a message or voice note directly through Buzzsprout.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a transformative Mindset Monday kicking off November's Giving Back series. Discover why the most powerful act of self-love isn't a bubble bath or spa day—it's serving others from a place of overflow and purpose.  In This Episode: • Why true self-love includes recognizing you're part of something bigger • Service as spiritual practice vs. martyrdom and self-sacrifice • The Full Cup Philosophy: You can't pour from an empty cup • How your healing journey prepares you to hold space for others  • The ripple effect: One person's healing inspires another's transformation • Turning your pain into purpose through authentic service  • Why self-care isn't selfish—it's preparation for service Key Concepts Explored: Service as Spiritual Practice Nyomi reframes what service means—not sacrifice or depletion, but alignment with purpose: Every morning at her altar, she asks: "How can I be of service today?"Service rooted in spiritual practice connects us to something greater than ourselvesWhen service becomes prayer, it stops feeling like obligation and starts feeling like devotionTrue service isn't about what you're doing for someone—it's about who you're being through the actThe Full Cup Philosophy Self-care isn't selfish—it's preparation for service:You can't pour from an empty cup (but there's deeper truth here)Self-care = filling your cup so when it's time to pour out, you have something substantial to givePouring from an empty cup = service feels like sacrifice, leads to burnout and resentmentPouring from overflow = service feels like joy, purpose, and extension of your abundanceWatching you fill your cup gives others permission to fill theirs tooThe Ripple Effect One woman's healing inspires another, creating waves of transformation:Nyomi's story gave women permission to start their own healing journeysSome started podcasts, wrote books, created healing businesses after hearing her truthYou don't always see the ripples you create, but trust they're thereEvery time you choose healing over hiding, you create a rippleYour healing isn't just for you—it's for your children, friends, and strangers who need your storyService That Honors Your Journey Every struggle was preparation:Your pain wasn't given as a gift, but once you survive and heal, you have a choiceKeep that healing to yourself OR use it to light the way for othersWhen you choose service, you reclaim your pain and give it new meaningYou transform what happened TO you into something that happens FOR someone elseThat's alchemy: turning wounds into wisdomNyomi's Personal Stories: The Divine Download Post-Surgery: After explant surgery, tender chest and heart, Nyomi felt an overwhelming knowing: "Your story is someone else's survival guide." She realized everything she'd been through—the pain, shame, unraveling, rebuilding—wasn't just for her. Her Daughter's Birthday Call: Nyomi's oldest daughter (turning 34) called in tears to say thank you: "I moved here 10 years ago at 24 with my baby in a suitcase, wondering how I'd make it without my mama. Now I feel so full. Thank you for talking into me and having hard conversations." Nyomi told her: "Now that you've been through your healing journey, your pain has to be purposeful. Share your story." The Journey from Adult Industry to Healing Advocate:Initially resistant: "Who am I to help anyone? I'm still healing myself."Realized: You don't have to be fully healed to help someone elseThe most powerful medicine is being a few steps ahead and saying "Let me show you the way"In sharing her story, she reclaimed itIn helping other women through explant journeys, she continues her own healingPowerful Truths Shared:"Your story is someone else's survival guide""Self-care isn't selfish. It's preparation for service.""Service isn't about what you're doing for someone. It's about who you're being through the act of service.""My pain will not be wasted. My journey will not be meaningless. I will take what tried to break me and use it to help others break free.""You don't have to have it all figured out to start serving. You just have to be willing to share where you are and what you've learned.""Your healing is never just for you. You are here to serve and the world needs what only you can give."Three Action Steps for This Week: 1. Journal Prompt: "How has someone's service to me changed my life?"Think about when someone showed up for you (teacher, friend, stranger's story)How did that service impact you and change your trajectory?What does that teach you about the power of your own service?2. Identify One Way to Serve: What's one concrete way you can be of service this week from your overflow (not depletion)?Overcome financial struggle? Mentor someone on building their businessHealed from toxic relationship? Hold space for a friend going through a breakupLearned to set boundaries? Model that for your children3. Reflection Question: "What does a full cup look like for me?"Is it rest? Creativity? Spiritual practices? Therapy? Nature? Saying no more often?Get clear on what your full cup requires and make those things non-negotiableAffirmation: "I give from a place of overflow, not depletion. My service is an extension of my self-love. As I heal, I help others heal. As I rise, I lift others with me. My story has purpose. My pain has power. And my service creates ripples of transformation that reach far beyond what I can see. I am full. I am enough. And I am here to serve." Perfect for listeners interested in:Finding purpose through serviceTurning pain into purposeSpiritual practices and altar workBreaking generational cursesCreating ripple effects of transformationAuthentic service vs. martyrdomSelf-care as preparation for serviceBuilding community through healingNovember Theme: Giving Back: The Power of Service and Community (Week 1) Series: Year of ReBirth 2025 - Season 4: The Season of Healing Intentionally This episode reframes service as the ultimate act of self-love—not sacrifice or depletion, but purposeful overflow that honors your journey and creates waves of transformation for others.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me  Join host Nyomi Banks on The Season of Self-Love Podcast for a raw and vulnerable special episode addressing the fear that haunts so many: "Will my past define my worth forever?" Inspired by a DM asking "Do you struggle wondering how others might view your past?", Nyomi shares her journey from the adult industry to healing advocate and teaches you how to reclaim your narrative and live unashamed. In This Episode: • The difference between guilt ("I did something wrong") vs. shame ("I am wrong") • How to reframe your past as your power, not your prison • Why women carry shame differently than men in society • The DVD Principles for reclamation: Decision, Visualization, Discipline • Four practical tools for living unashamed daily • Nyomi's original song "Reclaimed & Unashamed" from her album • Setting boundaries: Not everyone deserves access to your full story Nyomi's Three Pivotal Moments: Age 13: Flat-chested, questioning if breasts defined womanhoodAge 31-37: Building a career in the adult industry that gave her power and voiceAge 53: Post-explant surgery, realizing every judged decision brought her to freedomFour Practical Tools to Live Unashamed: Tool #1: The Narrative Rewrite Framework: "I used to ___, and now I ___" Example: "I used to work in an industry that society judged, but that experience taught me about power and boundaries. Now I use that wisdom to help women heal and step into their authentic selves." Tool #2: Boundary Setting When judgment shows up, you have options: Educate (if you have the energy)Redirect: "I appreciate your concern, but I'm at peace with my journey"Decline: "That's not my story to defend"Tool #3: Spiritual Grounding Create an altar space with items representing your reclamation. Use these daily affirmations: "I release the need for others' approval. My validation comes from within.""My past is my power, not my prison. I am reclaimed.""I am woman/man, whole and complete, exactly as I am."Color Healing Practice: Red (Root): Reclamation, grounding, standing firm in truthGold (Solar Plexus): Power, owning your voiceGreen (Heart): Self-love, compassion for all versions of yourselfViolet (Crown): Spiritual alignment, higher purposeTool #4: Community Over Judgment Build your circle with people who celebrate your evolution, not those who keep you tied to your past. Powerful Truths: "Your past doesn't define you. Your choices today do.""You are not on trial. You don't owe anyone an explanation for your transformation.""Reclamation is an act of self-love and spiritual alignment.""Your past is not a liability. It is your superpower."The Rebirth Concept: Rebirth isn't about erasing who you were—it's about integrating all versions of yourself. Past self + present self co-exist to create the amazing person doing amazing things.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks for this inspiring episode featuring Chancellor K. Jackson, author of "Fourteen Days in Beijing" and testament to the power of transforming adversity into abundance. From a promising football career to an unexpected detainment in China, Chancellor's journey demonstrates how gratitude and resilience can turn life's most challenging moments into platforms for empowerment and purpose. 🎯 What You'll Discover: • How to maintain mental strength and accountability during life's lowest moments • The power of transforming trauma into purpose through storytelling • Why adversity introduces us to our true character and potential • How to rebuild identity after losing what defined you • Practical ways to turn setbacks into comebacks through mindset shifts • The importance of embracing every choice and decision as part of your growth 💫 Chancellor's Transformation Story: Born and raised in Atlanta, Chancellor didn't start playing football until 8th grade - late by Georgia standards where most kids begin at 4 or 5. Through sheer determination and manifestation ("I'm going D-I" became his daily mantra), he earned a Division I scholarship to Stetson University. After graduation, he moved to China to teach English, but six months into what was supposed to be a year-long journey, everything changed with three knocks on his apartment door. ⚡ The Beijing Experience: On April 4, 2019, Chancellor was arrested by Beijing police for cannabis use and spent 14 days in Beijing Penitentiary as the only foreigner among 14 Chinese cellmates. With no shared language, no communication with the outside world, and only a plastic bowl and spoon, he faced the ultimate test of mental resilience. Rather than breaking him, this experience became the foundation for his purpose-driven life. 🌟 The Power of Accountability: "I constantly knew what I was doing and the repercussions from my decision making. I can't really get upset with nobody but myself. I got to take this to the chin. I knew my mental was still going to be intact, my spirit was still going to be intact." 🔥 From Prison to Purpose: What started as casual storytelling to friends about his experience became a bestselling book when his friend DeMarco Reddens suggested he write about it. Taking Chancellor's phone and creating an outline in his notes app, DeMarco sparked what would become a publishing empire - six books and counting, with "Fourteen Days in Beijing" hitting #1 in multiple genres over 15 times. 💎 The Coaching Connection: Chancellor now uses his experience to coach young football players, teaching them that "adversity introduces a man to himself." His prison experience provides powerful lessons about pushing through challenges, maintaining character under pressure, and discovering what you're truly made of when everything is stripped away. 🛠️ Building Abundance from Adversity: Chancellor's journey from detained teacher to bestselling author and coach demonstrates several key principles: Accountability Over Blame - Taking full responsibility for your choicesMental Resilience - Maintaining inner strength regardless of external circumstancesPurpose from Pain - Recognizing that difficult experiences often contain your greatest giftsManifestation Power - Speaking your goals into existence with unwavering beliefIdentity Reinvention - Learning to redefine yourself when old identities no longer serve📚 The Publishing Empire: Since "Fourteen Days in Beijing" launched in 2020, Chancellor has: Published 6 books total (4 authored, 2 mentored)Released "The Power of Becoming: Seven Pillars of Growth and Empowerment"Mentored authors including 15-year-old Tanesa Sadler, whose book held #1 for 9 straight daysBuilt Corlett Publications LLC, specializing in creating bestsellers🎭 Key Insights on Gratitude & Abundance: Gratitude in Crisis: Even in prison, Chancellor found things to be grateful for - his intact mental state, spiritual strength, and the lessons being revealedAbundance Through Service: His greatest success came from helping others tell their stories and achieve their dreamsIdentity Beyond Circumstances: True abundance comes from knowing who you are regardless of external situationsThe Marathon Mindset: Success is a long-distance run, not a sprint - every setback is setup for a comeback🌈 Powerful Quotes & Wisdom: "Adversity introduces a man to himself - you're in the fog of war where the true leader thrives""Nothing lasts forever - this chapter might be done but a new one is beginning""The ancestors were with me for sure - it was like a movie how I remembered everything in full detail""We produce bestsellers here at Corlett Publications LLC"💪 The Nipsey Hussle Philosophy: Chancellor lives by Nipsey's words: "The best teacher in life is your own experience. None of us know who we are until we fail. A person is defined by their reaction to any given situation. Who would you want to define you? Someone else or yourself?" 🎯 Perfect For: Anyone facing major life transitions or setbacksPeople struggling to find purpose after losing their identityAthletes transitioning out of sports careersAnyone interested in turning trauma into triumphAspiring authors and entrepreneursThose seeking practical wisdom on resilience and manifestation📞 Connect with Chancellor: Google: "Chancellor K Jackson" for complete access to all platformsBooks: Available on Amazon, including "Fourteen Days in Beijing" and "The Power of Becoming"Services: Author coaching, courses, and publishing support through Corlett Publications LLCSocial Media: All platforms accessible through Google search🔥 Episode Highlights: The moment three Beijing police officers knocked on his doorHow he remembered every detail of his 14-day experience without pen or paperThe friend who created his first book outline in his phone's notes appWhy he'd consider returning to China if the right opportunity aroseHis definition of himself: "A leader, natural born leader, a goat, God amongst men"🌟 The Ban Update: Chancellor's 5-year ban from China ended in 2024, and while he wouldn't go out of his way to return, he's open to opportunities - and would definitely document it for more great content! #️⃣ Hashtags: #ChancellorKJackson #FourteenDaysInBeijing #ThePowerOfBecoming #CorlettPublications #GratitudeAndAbundance #TurningChallengesIntoOpportunities #PrisonToPublishing #AdversityToAbundance #FootballToAuthor #BeijingExperience #AuthorCoaching #BestsellerCreator #ResilienceStory #ManifestationPower #SeasonOfSelfLove #PurposeFromPain #IdentityReinvention #SpiritualStrength 🌟 Key Takeaway: "Every setback contains the seeds of your greatest comeback. When you take full accountability for your choices, maintain your mental and spiritual strength, and trust that your experiences are preparing you for your purpose, you can transform any challenge into a platform for abundance and service to others." This episode proves that sometimes our biggest mistakes become our greatest gifts, and that true abundance comes not from avoiding adversity, but from alchemizing it into wisdom, purpose, and service to others.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks for this transformative Wisdom Wednesday episode featuring purpose-driven coach, speaker, and upcoming author Jamie Gant. From corporate burnout to digital nomad freedom, Jamie's journey demonstrates how breaking free from hustle culture and embracing gratitude can unlock authentic abundance and joy. 🎯 What You'll Discover: • Why the "busy equals productive" mindset leads to burnout and unfulfillment  • How to shift from task completion to meaningful prioritization • The difference between chasing success and designing an aligned life  • Practical gratitude exercises that attract genuine abundance  • How to identify your true values versus inherited expectations  • Why silence and self-intimacy are essential for authentic living 💫 Jamie's Transformation Story: Growing up in an unstable, abusive household with parents struggling with addiction, Jamie decided early on to be "not that." After getting clean, she threw herself into the hustle - business degree, corporate ladder climbing, checking all the "success" boxes. Despite looking perfect on paper with a great job, marriage, and lifestyle in Chicago, she developed severe anxiety and debilitating OCD that left her unable to function. ⚡ The Breaking Point: "I had done everything right. I was following the rule book. But underneath all of that, I had severe anxiety and panic attacks so bad I couldn't get out of bed. Everything was falling apart, and I couldn't understand why because I had done all the things I was supposed to do." 🌟 The Gratitude Revolution: After quitting her corporate job with no plan, Jamie discovered that gratitude literally saved her life multiple times. In moments of complete surrender and rock bottom experiences, focusing on simple blessings - breathing, tasting food, hearing birds sing - became her pathway back to abundance and authentic success.  🔥 The Hustle Culture Trap: Jamie reveals how hustle culture creates the illusion of productivity through:Task Completion Over Prioritization - Filling to-do lists with busy work instead of meaningful actionReactive vs. Proactive Thinking - Putting out fires instead of building for the futureQuick Wins Addiction - Focusing on what can be checked off today rather than what moves the needle forwardBurnout Cycle - Feeling exhausted and depleted while seeing no real progress💎 The 2020 Message We Missed: Both Nyomi and Jamie reflect on how 2020 was meant to teach us to stay still, but instead of learning presence and gratitude, society hit fast-forward and multiplied the hustle by ten. The pandemic was an invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters. 🛠️ Practical Gratitude & Abundance Tools: Daily Gratitude Practice:Three Good Things Method (University of Berkeley study) - Write down 3 good things dailyTen Blessings Approach - Start small with simple things like working ears or morning coffeeBuild momentum - Once you start, finding 10 things becomes naturalSelf-Love Notes:Leave sticky note love letters around your houseWrite notes on your coffee maker, mirror, and other daily touchpointsCreate future love letters to yourself and hide them to find laterTreat yourself with the same care you'd give a loved oneValues Alignment Exercise:Identify Your True Values - Not what others say is important, but what feels important to YOUFind Your Top 5 - What are your non-negotiables?Do an Alignment Audit - Where are you honoring your values vs. living others' expectations?Course Correct - Make decisions based on your authentic values🧘‍♀️ The Power of Silence: "We cannot hear what our heart has to say if we're not sitting in silence. Our relationship with silence is just as important as our relationship with ourselves." 🌈 Powerful Quotes & Wisdom:"Gratitude has saved my life more times than I can count""When I'm grateful for what I have, I only get more. It never fails every time""We chase these ideas of success, but if it's not who we are, it can all unravel""The most intimate relationship you'll ever have is the one with yourself""At our core, we are love embodied - we just lose that so easily""Your story is just as valuable and important as long as it's yours"📚 About "Becoming Myself": Jamie's upcoming book explores the "beautiful unfolding of authenticity" that comes from choosing what feels good in your gut versus what you've been told is right. It's about unlearning inherited beliefs and trusting your inner wisdom through gratitude and self-love. 🎭 The Comparison Trap: Social media creates "compare and despair" mentality, making us think everyone else achieved overnight success. Jamie reminds us that what we see is "years and years of figuring stuff out" - use others' success as inspiration to unlock what's inside you, not as a reason to copy their exact path. 🌟 Chicago Connection: Both Nyomi and Jamie are Chicago natives, creating an instant kinship and shared understanding of resilience, authenticity, and the power of community support in transformation. 🎯 Perfect For:Women feeling trapped in hustle culture and burnoutAnyone comparing their life to social media highlightsPeople ready to design life around their authentic valuesThose seeking practical gratitude practices that create real changeAnyone wanting to break free from inherited expectationsPeople ready to fall in love with their actual life, not their "supposed to" life📞 Connect with Jamie:Website: radicallyalivecoaching.comInstagram: @jamiegant.coachUpcoming Book: "Becoming Myself"Services: Purpose-driven coaching for authentic living🔥 Episode Highlights:The moment Jamie realized "doing everything right" wasn't workingHow gratitude practices literally attract unexpected abundanceWhy 2020 was a missed opportunity for collective awakeningThe difference between being busy and being productiveHow to write love notes to your future selfThe magic that happens when you align with your true values🏆 Mini Challenge: For the next 7 days, take a "gratitude snapshot" - notice one moment of abundance (joy, peace, stillness) and journal about it with pen and paper.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks for this empowering Wisdom Wednesday episode featuring Trent Carter, nurse practitioner, founder of Renew Health, and author of "The Recovery Tool Belt." From small-town Texas to transforming lives through addiction recovery and mental health, Trent's healing-first approach demonstrates how true resilience comes from addressing root causes, not just symptoms. 🎯 What You'll Discover: • Why traditional medical approaches often miss the root of healing  • How to break free from limiting beliefs that are actually self-imposed  • The difference between motivation and discipline in building resilience  • Practical tools for rewiring your brain through affirmations and journaling  • Why knowledge without action is just potential power  • How small daily wins create a compound effect for transformation  💫 Trent's Transformation Story: Growing up in Boyd, Texas, Trent became a registered nurse working in trauma ICU and neurology ICU before becoming a nurse practitioner. During clinical rotations with a family practice doctor treating opioid addiction, he witnessed transformation but recognized massive gaps in traditional treatment approaches. This led him to become board-certified in addiction medicine and found Renew Health in New Mexico. ⚡ The Gap in Traditional Medicine: Trent observed that traditional medical approaches often treat symptoms with medication rather than addressing root causes. His healing-first philosophy focuses on giving patients tools rather than just prescriptions, emphasizing that lasting change requires active participation from the person seeking healing. 🌟 The Tool Belt Philosophy: "If all you've got is a hammer, then everything's a nail. By having these tools, you can now approach something differently, more effectively, more efficiently, and more safely." Trent's approach gives people multiple tools for recovery and resilience, but emphasizes that it's up to them to use those tools. 🔥 Knowledge vs. Action: "Knowledge isn't power - knowledge is potential power. If you've got this new information but don't do anything with it, it didn't do anything. I would argue it's worse because now you have newfound knowledge yet you're not utilizing it." 🛠️ Building Inner Resilience - Practical Steps: 1. Awareness First:Recognize when you're in a cycle that isn't serving youAcknowledge that something needs to changeDon't judge the situation - just observe it2. Acquire Knowledge:Tap into free resources online, in your community, or through trusted friendsSeek out information that addresses root causes, not just symptomsFind resources that speak your language and resonate with your experience3. Build Support Systems:Lean on positive support that builds you upAvoid people who criticize destructively or want to keep you downAccept constructive criticism that helps you grow4. Take Action:Move beyond just learning to actually implementingStart with small, manageable stepsStay consistent even when motivation is low💎 The Discipline vs. Motivation Truth: "Discipline trumps motivation. Motivation comes and goes, waxes and wanes. If you can set habits, routines, and stay disciplined, you just got stronger when you push through without motivation. This leads to self-confidence and makes it easier to make right choices when motivation is low." 🧘‍♀️ Daily Resilience Practices: Morning Wins Strategy:Start with small wins like making your bedStack 2-3 small accomplishments early in the dayBuild psychological momentum for larger challengesTrack your wins to see progress over timeJournaling for Reflection:Write down thoughts, feelings, and progress regularlyDate entries to track mindset shifts over timeUse reflection to identify what's working and what needs adjustmentTreat it like before/after photos for your mental stateAffirmations & Mindset Work:Practice positive affirmations consistently (not just once a day)Write them down to reinforce the neural pathwaysFocus on changing thought patterns and how you interpret inputRemember: you can think something into existence through consistent practice🌈 The Compound & Ripple Effects: Small daily actions compound over time, creating dramatic changes that seem unrelated to the original effort. When you improve yourself, it ripples into your relationships, parenting, work, and every area of life. Looking back over 12 months, the transformation can seem miraculous. 📚 About "The Recovery Tool Belt": Written for people struggling with substance abuse, their loved ones, and clinicians who want better tools. The book provides practical strategies that can be applied globally, emphasizing empowerment and actionable steps rather than just theory. 🎭 Powerful Quotes & Wisdom:"The limit we put on our beliefs is self-imposed - you can break through that ceiling""There is no failure if you're learning from it - it's only failure if you don't adapt and grow""You can change your world by changing your mindset and how you interpret input""These little tiny wins build up over time - the compound effect cannot be underwritten""Resilience isn't just about bouncing back - it's about building a life with intention, grace, and deep love for yourself"🌟 The Mindset Shift: Moving from shame-based healing to grace-based healing involves:Changing how you talk to yourselfReframing setbacks as learning opportunitiesBuilding on small wins rather than focusing on failuresUnderstanding that growth requires stepping outside comfort zonesRecognizing that everyone's journey looks different🎯 Perfect For:Anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who isPeople wanting to build genuine resilience from the inside outThose tired of surface-level solutions and ready for root-cause healingAnyone ready to move from knowledge to actionPeople seeking practical, evidence-based tools for transformationThose wanting to break through self-imposed limitations📞 Connect with Trent:Personal Website: thetrentcarter.comCompany: renewhealth.com (daily blog with credible, free information)Book: "The Recovery Tool Belt" (available on website)Social Media: @thetrentcarter, @renewhealthnm (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn)Location: New Mexico (serving entire state via telehealth)🔥 Episode Highlights:The gap between traditional medical treatment and true healingWhy discipline beats motivation every time for lasting changeHow small daily wins create psychological momentumThe importance of reflection and tracking progress over timeMoving from shame to grace in the healing processBreaking through self-imposed belief limitations#️⃣ Hashtags: #TrentCarter #RecoveryToolBelt #RenewHealth #EmotionalResilience #HealingFirst #AddictionRecovery #MentalHealthHealing #DisciplineOverMotivation #InnerStrength #GraceBasedHealing #CompoundEffect #SeasonOfSelfLove #BeyondLimits #ToolsNotJustTreatment #ActionOverKnowledge 🌟 Key Takeaway: "True resilience comes from addressing root causes with practical tools, consistent discipline, and grace-based healing. Knowledge without action is just potential power - transformation happens when you take that knowledge and put it into daily practice, building small wins that compound into life-changing results."

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks for this powerful episode featuring life coach, inspirational speaker, and author Brooke DeBoer. From surviving bullying and abusive relationships to building a life of freedom and purpose, Brooke's journey demonstrates how we can transform trauma into triumph and build unshakeable emotional resilience while rewriting our stories.  🎯 What You'll Discover: • How childhood bullying and abusive relationships can become catalysts for transformation  • The difference between coping mechanisms and true healing  • Why your body will force you to stop when you're not processing trauma • Practical tools for building emotional resilience and rewriting your story  • How to help children navigate bullying and build inner strength • The power of reflection, journaling, and prayer in the healing process 💫 Brooke's Transformation Story: At 24, Brooke found herself a single mother escaping an abusive relationship while pregnant with her daughter. This pivotal moment forced her to ask: "What kind of mom do I want to be? What kind of example do I want to set?" Her journey from survival to thriving involved years of healing work, ultimately leading to a happy marriage, three daughters, and her book "Living the Free Life." ⚡ The Health Crisis Wake-Up Call: In her 30s, Brooke experienced a stress-induced thyroid crash that wasn't autoimmune-related. Her doctor's tests revealed the truth: years of stored trauma were manifesting physically. This health challenge became her invitation to finally process the pain she'd been carrying since childhood. 🌟 The Masterpiece Moment: A pivotal conversation with a church mentor changed everything: "God created you as a masterpiece. Are you treating yourself like a masterpiece?" This question became the foundation for Brooke's permission to rewrite her story and demand better treatment from herself and others. 🔥 Understanding Emotional Resilience: "Resilience is when you go through something hard, you take a moment, take a breath, and then you get back up again. It's putting one foot in front of the other, sometimes stopping and pausing to reflect before taking further steps ." 🛠️ Brooke's Resilience Process:Stop and Reflect - Don't just push through painJournal - Process emotions and experiences on paperPray/Meditate - Connect with something greater than yourselfRecalibrate - Adjust your direction based on new insightsTake Next Steps - Move forward with intention and wisdom💎 The Bullying Conversation: Both Nyomi and Brooke address the critical issue of childhood bullying, sharing personal experiences with their own children. Key insights:Help children distinguish between outside voices and their inner voiceEnsure they have at least one supportive person to process feelings withRole-play scenarios and create action plans for handling bulliesConnect them with trusted adults at schoolPractice using their authentic voice in safe spaces🎭 Modern Challenges: Today's children face unprecedented challenges with 24/7 smartphone connectivity and social media pressure. Unlike previous generations who only compared themselves to local peers, today's youth face global comparison and constant external input about how to be, look, and act. 🌈 The Strategic Intervention Approach: Brooke's coaching method involves:Assessment - Using tools like the Wheel of Life to evaluate different life areasGoal Setting - Establishing clear vision for desired outcomesBackward Planning - Creating action steps from goal to presentChallenge Anticipation - Preparing for obstacles and creating alternativesRelationship Analysis - Evaluating who gets access to different levels of your life🏠 The House Metaphor for Relationships:Master Bedroom - Most intimate, trusted relationshipsLiving Room - Close friends and familyFront Door - Acquaintances you keep at a distanceOutside - People you don't allow into your space at all🧘‍♀️ Practical Tools for Daily Resilience: 1. The Body Compass Technique:Stand in a quiet spaceAsk your questionIf your body leans forward = YESIf you feel resistance/lean back = NO2. Morning Pages Journaling:Write 1-3 pages first thing in the morningNo prompts, no plan - just brain dumpHelps you understand your feelings and re-center3. Guided Meditation:Use guided meditations if stillness is difficultCreates space for inner wisdom to emerge💪 Key Insights on Healing:Trauma Processing is Essential - You can't just develop coping mechanisms; you must process and release stored traumaYour Body Will Force Rest - If you don't voluntarily process trauma, your body will eventually shut downPerfectionism is a Trauma Response - Working harder to prove worth is often a reaction to past hurtHealing Isn't Linear - Expect seasons of healing and seasons of moving forward🌟 Powerful Quotes & Wisdom:"We teach people how to treat us by what we accept""You are God's masterpiece - are you treating yourself like a masterpiece?""Women get to set the tone for what the expectations are in relationships""Everything has a season - there's a time to heal and a time to move forward""If you don't process and get comfortable sharing your story, you'll never know others are going through similar things"🎯 The Rewriting Process:Identify current feelings and traumaEstablish your vision and goalsCreate action steps working backward from goalsAnticipate challenges and prepare alternativesAssess relationships and create healthy boundariesClear negative influences before moving forward🌍 Cultural Observations: Brooke notes that other cultures take more breaks and prioritize mental health differently than Americans, who tend to push through without adequate rest and reflection time. 🎯 Perfect For:Anyone recovering from bullying or abusive relationshipsParents helping children navigate social challengesPeople struggling with perfectionism and people-pleasingThose ready to rewrite their life storyAnyone experiencing stress-related health issuesPeople seeking practical tools for emotional resilience📞 Connect with Brooke:Website: thebrookdeboer.comInstagram: @FreebrokeE (Free + Brooke with an E)Books: "Living the Free Life" (for women) + children's bookTikTok: Less regular updates🔥 Episode Highlights:The moment Brooke chose her daughter's future over her abusive relationshipHow stored trauma manifested as physical illnessThe "masterpiece" conversation that changed everythingPractical strategies for helping children handle bullyingThe difference between coping and truly healingWhy your body will force you to stop if you don't process trauma#️⃣ Hashtags: #BrookeDeBoer #LivingTheFreeLife #EmotionalResilience #TraumaHealing #BullyingPrevention #LifeCoaching #StrategicIntervention #RewritingYourStory #SelfLoveRebirth #HealingJourney #ParentingSupport #AuthenticLiving #SeasonOfSelfLove #BreakingFree #Masterpiece 🌟 Key Takeaway: "You are a masterpiece created exactly as you were supposed to be.

Text or voice note me  Join host Nyomi Banks for this deeply transformative Wisdom Wednesday episode featuring nutritionist, food relationship coach, and yoga teacher Abby Mallard. After her own recovery from disordered eating, Abby now empowers others to embrace food freedom, self-acceptance, and emotional well-being as pathways to building authentic resilience from the inside out. 🎯 What You'll Discover:  • How disordered eating becomes a coping mechanism for deeper emotional wounds • The connection between food relationships and authentic self-discovery • Why emotional resilience starts with feeling and naming your emotions • Practical daily tools for building emotional strength and body acceptance • How to navigate social media criticism while maintaining authenticity  • The powerful link between nutrition and mental/emotional health 💫 Abby's Transformation Story: Starting around age 11, Abby felt alone and like she didn't fit in the world. When major family changes occurred, she turned to controlling food as a coping mechanism - developing bulimia, binging, purging, and anorexia that lasted from ages 13-17. What began as seeking control became a cry for help that her family never noticed, until she finally asked her mother for support at 17. ⚡ The Healing Journey: With the help of a nutritionist/dietitian who served as both food expert and therapist, Abby began her recovery. Her dietitian's tough love - threatening not to let her move away for college unless she gained weight and "got her shit together" - provided the necessary wake-up call to commit to healing. 🌟 The Food-Emotion Connection: Abby reveals how disordered eating consumed 100% of her mental space, leaving no room for processing emotions or discovering her authentic self. When food becomes an obsession, it's not about control - it controls you. Healing her relationship with food created space to:Acknowledge and feel emotions instead of suppressing themBuild a relationship with her authentic selfCreate a peaceful, joyful life beyond food obsession🔥 Defining Emotional Resilience: "Being okay with feeling emotions instead of stuffing everything inside. We're taught not to verbalize or feel 'negative' emotions, but it's important to speak emotion out of your body, identify what you're feeling, and accept yourself through that feeling." 🛠️ Abby's 3-Step Emotion Practice:Name Your Top 3 Emotions using an emotion wheel (Google it!) - go beyond happy/sad/angryAsk Key Questions: What's causing this feeling? What is this emotion telling me I need?Take the Next Small Right Action to move through the feeling with compassion, not to fix or eliminate it💎 The Addiction Reality: Both Nyomi and Abby acknowledge that food addiction is real but often unrecognized. Like any addiction, it provides temporary relief while ultimately controlling your life. Recovery means discovering who you are without external validation or comfort mechanisms. 🎭 Social Media & Authenticity: Abby shares how showing up authentically online "ruffles feathers" and attracts criticism. Her approach:Name the emotion triggered by mean commentsTalk it out with trusted friends/spouse instead of stuffing feelingsStand up for yourself without engaging in back-and-forth argumentsSet boundaries - you don't have to tolerate internet bullies🧘‍♀️ Daily Resilience Tools:Emotional Check-ins - especially on harder daysDeep breathing and stepping away from screensGetting outside for fresh air and perspectiveTalking to friends or journaling to get emotions out of your bodyNourishing your body - 40% of nutrients go directly to your brain!Somatic movement - yoga, shaking, spiraling hips to release stuck emotionsDownward dog heel bounces - like "twerking" but for emotional release🍎 The Nutrition-Emotion Connection: "Forty percent of the nutrients you eat go directly to your brain - that's almost half! This impacts how you think clearly, your mood, and emotions." Focus on:Getting adequate protein and vegetablesStaying hydratedNot aiming for perfection, but consistent nourishment🌈 Powerful Quotes & Wisdom:"When something has that much control over you, you don't have space for emotions or figuring out who you are""We don't have to tolerate bullies - internet bullies are a real thing""I can love everyone and hold compassion, but I don't have to let them have access to my heart""It's exhausting when you have to put a mask on all the time""Resilience lives inside of you - it's not something you earn, it's something you already have"🎯 Mini Challenge for Listeners: Start each morning with this affirmation: "I am worthy of nourishment. I trust myself and my body is not my enemy - it is my home." Before your next meal, take 30 seconds to thank your body, tune into hunger cues, and eat with presence. 🌟 The Comparison Trap: Unlike previous generations who compared themselves to immediate peers, today's social media creates endless comparison opportunities. Abby's experience comparing herself to her "tall, skinny" older sister shows how family dynamics can fuel disordered eating patterns. 💪 Boundaries vs. Walls: Understanding that boundaries aren't about cutting people off completely, but about maintaining different levels of access while staying authentic. You can approach everyone with kindness while protecting your personal space and energy. 🎯 Perfect For:Anyone struggling with disordered eating or food relationshipsPeople learning to build emotional resilienceThose recovering from perfectionism and people-pleasingAnyone navigating social media while maintaining authenticityPeople seeking practical tools for daily emotional wellnessThose ready to discover their authentic self beyond external validation📞 Connect with Abby:Business: Health My FriendInstagram: @healthmyfriendWebsite: healthmyfriend.comPodcast: Health My FriendLocation: Charlotte, North Carolina areaNew offering: Booty (B-U-T-I) Yoga classes with somatic movement🔥 Episode Highlights:Raw honesty about the reality of eating disorders as coping mechanismsThe revelation that food addiction is as real as any other addictionPractical tools for emotional regulation and body acceptanceHow authentic self-expression attracts your people while repelling othersThe connection between physical nourishment and emotional resilienceWhy perfectionism is a daily struggle requiring ongoing compassion#️⃣ Hashtags: #WisdomWednesday #AbbyMallard #HealthMyFriend #FoodFreedom #EmotionalResilience #EatingDisorderRecovery #BodyAcceptance #AuthenticLiving #SomaticMovement #NutritionTherapy #SelfCompassion #BoundariesMatter #SeasonOfSelfLove #HealingJourney #FoodRelationship 🌟 Key Takeaway: "Healing your relationship with food creates space to build a relationship with your authentic self. Emotional resilience isn't about avoiding difficult feelings - it's about developing the tools to move through them with compassion while nourishing your body as your home, not your enemy." This episode provides both practical tools and deep wisdom for anyone ready to transform their relationship with food, emotions, and authentic self-expression into a foundation of lasting resilience.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me t Join host Nyomi Banks for this profound Wisdom Wednesday episode featuring transformational healer Ann Hince, founder of Sacred Spirit Journeys. Ann's remarkable journey from profound childhood trauma to deep inner healing demonstrates the incredible power of releasing stored emotional burdens and reclaiming peace through body awareness and emotional freedom techniques. 🎯 What You'll Discover: • How childhood trauma gets stored physically in our bodies for decades • The revolutionary EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping method for releasing stuck emotions • Why asking "why" can take you out of the present healing moment  • How to develop deep body awareness to feel emotions as physical sensations • The connection between emotional release and actual physical growth • Practical tools for becoming "imperturbable" - at peace regardless of external circumstances 💫 Ann's Transformation Story: After 20 years of carrying unprocessed grief from finding her mother dead at 19, Ann's healing journey began when two mothers at her children's school triggered a three-day mental spiral. This seemingly small incident revealed the massive emotional burden she'd been carrying from complex childhood PTSD, including being the only girl at a boys' boarding school where she was mercilessly teased. ⚡ The Breakthrough Moment: During a routine doctor's visit, Ann rated her stress level as 8/10 despite being a stay-at-home mom with healthy children. When asked why, she realized the tears from finding her mother's body were still "just under the surface." Her holistic physician introduced her to EFT tapping, and in just 15 minutes, she could tell the story of her mother's death without tears. 🌟 The Physical Reality of Stored Emotions: Ann's journey revealed that:All negative experiences get stored as physical tension in our bodiesUnprocessed emotions from childhood continue directing our adult livesWe use precious energy keeping suppressed tears and trauma locked insideThe body can actually grow and change when deep tension is released (Ann grew 3/4 inch in her 50s!)🔥 Revolutionary Healing Insights:The Pandora's Box Effect: Once you start releasing trauma, your subconscious opens up and reveals more layers to healBeyond the Big Traumas: Small conditioning from family, teachers, and society also gets stored as tensionThe Progression of Awareness: Healing moves from no body awareness to deep tissue and bone awarenessSound and Physical Sensation: Advanced healing allows you to feel sound vibrations throughout your entire body🛠️ Practical EFT Tapping Method:Identify the emotion or memory that's causing distressTap on 9 specific acupressure points while talking through the experienceGo through the story multiple times - each round reveals new details and emotionsContinue until it becomes "just a story" with no emotional chargeThe tapping does the work for you - you don't need to feel to use it effectively💎 Ann's Unique "Statue Method" for Advanced Healing: When you can feel emotions as physical sensations:Notice a thought with emotion (e.g., "I'm afraid to make this phone call")Find where that emotion lives in your body (fear often sits in the solar plexus)Stop like a statue - no breathing, no movement to maintain focusTalk to the sensation: "I can feel you there. I just want you to relax. It's okay to be felt."Give it attention without trying to change itRepeat until the emotion releases completely🎭 Powerful Quotes & Wisdom:"All those tears we never shed in childhood are still stored inside of us, and we're using energy to keep them in""We don't need to ask 'why' - the sensation is coming up to be felt, and once we release it, the 'why' often pops into our mind anyway""My ultimate goal is to be imperturbable - to stand at peace regardless of what's happening around me""There is so much more depth to life than we're aware of now - once we heal, life becomes fun and we feel physically lighter"🧘‍♀️ The Mindfulness Connection: Ann emphasizes being present with whatever you're feeling rather than trying to analyze it. The moment we ask "why is this happening?" we leave the present moment where actual healing occurs. The sensation itself contains all the information needed for release. 🌈 The Transformation Results: After years of deep healing work, Ann experiences:Physical lightness and actual height increaseEnhanced vocal range due to skull tension releaseAbility to feel sound vibrations throughout her bodyDeep understanding of how life works from the inside outCapacity to watch news and use it as a healing opportunityJoy, laughter, and fun that were previously suppressed🎯 Perfect For:Anyone carrying unprocessed childhood trauma or griefPeople who feel emotionally "stuck" or overwhelmedThose interested in body-based healing approachesAnyone wanting to develop deeper self-awarenessPeople ready to transform emotional burdens into wisdomThose seeking practical tools for emotional resilience📞 Connect with Ann:Website: annhince.com (includes X-rays showing skull bone shifts)YouTube Channel: Ann HinceFacebook: Very active with healing contentOne-on-one coaching sessions available🔥 Episode Highlights:The moment Ann realized her childhood was still affecting her adult reactionsHow 15 minutes of tapping released 20 years of stored griefThe discovery that we can focus awareness inside bones and tissuesWhy going out of your comfort zone accelerates healingThe difference between fixing emotions and feeling themHow suppressed emotions literally weigh us down physically#️⃣ Hashtags: #WisdomWednesday #AnnHince #EmotionalFreedomTechnique #EFTTapping #TraumaHealing #BodyAwareness #EmotionalResilience #SacredSpiritJourneys #HealingJourney #StoredTrauma #MindBodyConnection #TransformationalHealing #SeasonOfSelfLove #RebuildingAfterTrauma #InnerHealing 🌟 Key Takeaway: "We store everything negative as tension in our bodies, but we can learn to release it and reclaim the energy we've been using to keep it suppressed. The journey from no awareness to deep body awareness transforms not just how we feel, but how we experience life itself." This episode provides both profound insights and practical tools for anyone ready to release the emotional burdens they've been carrying and step into a lighter, more joyful way of being.

Text or voice note me  Join host Nyomi Banks for this powerful Wisdom Wednesday episode featuring the inspiring Aneta Waclaw, writer, motivational speaker, and host of "Nourish Inside Out" podcast.

Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks for this deeply moving Special Mindset Monday episode featuring BII survivor Layci Aguirre, who shares her transformative 5-week post-explant journey from debilitating illness to spiritual and physical empowerment. This powerful conversation demonstrates the profound healing possible when we choose truth over fear and trust our body's wisdom.  🎯 What You'll Discover: • The reality of living with Breast Implant Illness symptoms for 23 years  • How teenage pregnancy and societal pressures influenced implant decisions • The connection between adoption trauma, rejection, and body image choices  • Why trusting your intuitive knowing is crucial for healing • Immediate and life-changing benefits of explant surgery  • The spiritual awakening that accompanies authentic self-love 💫 Layci's Transformation Story: Born biracial in 1981 and adopted into a loving family, Layci's early experiences with rejection shaped her relationship with her body. At 19, after becoming pregnant as a high school senior, she entered the dancing industry where societal pressures led her to get implants without understanding long-term health implications. ⚡ The Health Crisis (2023): After 5 years of intuitive knowing something was wrong, everything "went south" after her daughter's graduation party: Chronic fatigue so severe she couldn't reach the kitchenShooting pains from neck down left arm with tingling and numbnessElectric shocks behind eyes, chest, and thighs during sleepBlood pressure spikes triggered by refined sugarMuscle fasciculations throughout entire bodySevere brain fog affecting work performance as a managerShortness of breath and feeling like "dying inside while looking normal outside"🌟 Immediate Post-Surgery Transformation (5 weeks out): Chronic fatigue completely liftedMuscle fasciculations dramatically slowedBrain fog cleared - sharp mental clarity returnedMemory function restored - work performance improved instantlyLibido increased significantly after years of hormonal disruptionPhysical sensation returned - ability to feel family's heartbeats during hugsDark under-eye circles disappeared the day of surgeryShortness of breath completely resolved🙏 The Spiritual Component: Layci describes her explant as "prophetic" - a new chapter in her calling to minister to women and young girls. She experienced divine guidance throughout her decision-making process and views her story as testimony meant to set others free from shame and fear. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Impact: With four children (ages 26, 19, 14, and 10), Layci used her explant journey as a powerful teaching tool for her three daughters about self-acceptance and not conforming to societal beauty standards. Her supportive husband reinforced that love isn't based on physical modifications. 💎 Key Insights & Quotes: "I feel sexier than I have in probably 15-20 years - I'm genuinely me""I'm going to be able to hold that grandbaby to my chest and feel their heartbeat""This opened up connection, not isolation""Our story and testimony is what's going to set somebody else free""My truth is God's truth - He made us beautifully and perfect"🎯 Perfect For: Women experiencing unexplained health symptomsThose considering explant surgeryPeople dealing with body image issues rooted in early traumaAnyone learning to trust their intuitive knowingThose seeking spiritual perspective on healing journeysWomen of color looking for representation in BII stories🔥 Episode Highlights: Vulnerable sharing about adoption trauma and body image connectionThe dramatic health crisis that preceded explant decisionImmediate post-surgery improvements in multiple body systemsPowerful realization about genuine sexuality and femininity post-explantSpiritual calling to help other women through testimonyVision for future "Body Choice and Voice" podcast movement📞 Connect & Support: Layci is available in Facebook BII support groups and encourages women considering explant surgery to reach out.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks on this deeply moving Wisdom Wednesday episode of The Season of Self Love Podcast as she welcomes BII survivor Shelly Jean, whose powerful 3-year post-explant journey demonstrates the profound transformation possible when we choose healing over appearance. Shelly's story provides hope, practical wisdom, and honest insights for anyone considering explant surgery or supporting someone through their healing journey. What You'll Discover:  • The reality of living with BII symptoms for decades without knowing the cause • How the adult entertainment industry influenced her decision to get implants  • The connection between breast implants and various cancers • Why proper explant technique (en bloc capsulectomy) is crucial • The immediate and long-term benefits of explant surgery Shelly's Transformation Story: At 31, Shelly got implants to excel in her career as an entertainer at Solid Gold, a high-end Las Vegas-style club in Minneapolis. After 10 symptom-free years, she began experiencing mysterious health issues that doctors couldn't explain, leading to a "hypochondriac" label in her medical chart. The Health Crisis: Libido loss and relationship strugglesChronic fatigue and lethargyChoking episodes and swallowing difficultiesWeight gain that wouldn't respond to diet or exerciseBrain fog so severe she couldn't remember where she parkedUterine cancer (adenocarcinoma in situ) - unusual presentation outside the uterusLife-Changing Discoveries: Shelly found a Facebook group of 55,000 women with similar symptoms, leading to her BII awakening. After replacing her original implants in 2012 (using inheritance money from her deceased son), she experienced immediate symptom relief, confirming the implant connection. The Perfect Storm: During her healing journey, Shelly faced multiple traumas: her son's death the day before his 30th birthday, her husband leaving for a friend, her daughter's miscarriage, another son's imprisonment, and her cancer diagnosis - discovered only because her husband left and she wanted to date again. Current Reality - 3 Years Post-Explant: Shelly is experiencing some returning symptoms, believing remnants from her first implants weren't properly removed. This honest sharing shows that healing can be ongoing and that proper surgical technique is crucial. Immediate Post-Surgery Changes: Memory returned to 80% capacity immediatelyMental clarity restoredHeart-to-heart hugs became possible againOverall wellness dramatically improvedKey Insights: "Every single implant has a silicone lining" - saline implants are equally toxic"160,000 women in one Facebook group" - the scope is massive"Don't treat symptoms, find the source" - her approach to medical care"The heal is real" - their shared mottoPractical Advice: Research proper explant surgeons who perform en bloc capsulectomyDon't compare your healing journey to othersDocument symptoms with dates and times for doctor visitsBe your own advocate - don't let doctors gaslight youConsider explant surgery an investment in your health and futureResources Mentioned: Robin Towt and Global Advocacy Coalition (gpacunited.org)FDA black box warnings on breast implantsMultiple Facebook BII support groupsLaura Bowden as patient advocateThe Spiritual Component: Shelly's journey illustrates how physical healing intertwines with spiritual growth. Her gratitude practice and ability to find meaning in suffering demonstrate the holistic nature of true healing. Honest Warnings: Recovery varies for everyoneSome Facebook groups can be fear-inducingProper surgical technique is crucialHealing may be ongoing, not always immediateFinancial Reality: Shelly's surgery cost $14,000 without insurance coverage, emphasizing the need to view explant surgery as a health investment rather than cosmetic expense. Perfect for women experiencing unexplained health symptoms, those considering explant surgery, anyone in the adult entertainment industry facing health challenges, and people learning to trust their body's wisdom over medical dismissal.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Join host Nyomi Banks and resident therapist Dr. Will Washington on this deeply personal final Mindset Monday episode of The Season of Self Love Podcast as they tackle one of the most universal yet rarely discussed challenges: managing anxiety before medical procedures. As Nyomi prepares for her explant surgery, this vulnerable conversation provides essential tools for transforming medical anxiety from paralyzing fear into empowering preparation. What You'll Discover: • Why medical procedure anxiety is completely normal and actually healthy • The difference between past trauma-based anxiety and current procedural concerns • Three essential practical tools for managing pre-surgery stress • How to distinguish between mind, body, and heart responses to medical anxiety • The importance of nervous system regulation during high-stress medical situations Nyomi's Vulnerable Sharing: Nyomi courageously opens up about her current 2 AM wake-ups filled with surgical anxiety, despite knowing her decision is right and trusting her surgeon. She also shares her powerful story of severe anxiety attacks during pregnancy - complete blackouts, shortness of breath, and psychosomatic reactions that required roadside emergency stops with her young daughter. Understanding Medical Anxiety: Dr. Will explains that anxiety around medical procedures is natural because it represents a moment when "your control is in the hands of someone you've just met" with outcomes you cannot control. The uncertainty triggers normal human responses - if you weren't anxious, that would be more concerning. The Anatomy of Anxiety Attacks: Psychosomatic Reactions: When the mind and body disconnect, leading to physical symptomsDissociation: The mind says "I'm out" while the body tries to keep functioningAll-or-Nothing Thinking: One of ten types of distorted thinking that can trigger severe anxietyThe Loop Effect: Anxiety as separation from the present moment, like "fishing with no water"Nyomi's Transformation Story: From severe pregnancy anxiety attacks (complete with blackouts and emergency calls) to current manageable pre-surgery concerns, Nyomi shares how 22 years of spiritual growth, self-awareness, and healing work have transformed her relationship with anxiety. Her journey from industry retirement through spiritual awakening illustrates the power of intentional healing. Dr. Will's Three Essential Tools: Bring Support: Have someone with you to help process medical information and share the emotional loadDo Your Research: Don't mystify the situation - learn about recovery, connect with others who've had similar proceduresCreate New Engagement: Start a journal, hobby, or skill during the process to channel energy constructively rather than destructivelyKey Insights: "We all have our own mental illness loop - some are bigger circles, some are smaller""Stress is the number one killer, but anxiety opens up your awareness to stress""The goal is to learn your mind, body, and heart as three different people""Nervous system regulation is key - it doesn't know how to reset without proper grounding"The Mind-Body-Heart Framework: Dr. Will emphasizes learning to recognize mind, body, and heart as three separate experiences, allowing you to sit in the center and make balanced decisions. This awareness is crucial for managing anxiety and practicing effective self-care. Practical Techniques Covered: Grounding through awareness of room, relationships, and internal temperatureIce therapy and temperature regulation for nervous system resetBreathing techniques and guided meditation for pre-procedure calmJournaling as a tool for processing and documenting the healing journeySpiritual Growth Through Challenge: Nyomi's story illustrates how medical challenges can become catalysts for spiritual awakening. Her pregnancy bedrest period became "the beginning of deep, deep healing" and her spiritual journey, showing how forced stillness can lead to profound self-discovery. Episode Highlights: Nyomi's honest admission about 2 AM anxiety wake-ups despite surgical confidenceThe powerful story of pregnancy anxiety attacks and roadside blackoutsDr. Will's explanation of dissociation and psychosomatic reactionsThe connection between past trauma and current medical anxietyPractical tools for building a "calm kit" for medical proceduresPerfect for anyone facing upcoming medical procedures, those supporting loved ones through medical journeys, people dealing with medical anxiety or trauma, and anyone learning to manage stress and anxiety through spiritual and psychological tools.

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me Welcome to Threshold Thursday on the Season of Self-Love podcast! 🌟 I'm your host, Nyomi Banks, and today we're diving deep into the sacred dance of self-compassion. This week has been nothing short of transformative as we explore the powerful, interconnected streams of healing — from sacred words to music as medicine, and finally, listening to our body's wisdom. 🌱✨  On today's episode, we’re exploring the three essential streams of self-compassion that flow through us, each offering its unique healing power. From Dr. Will's guidance on the power of mantras to Darlene's deep dive into intuitive body healing, we learn how true self-compassion is holistic and multifaceted. These three streams — words, music, and body wisdom — come together to create real transformation. 🎶🧘🏽‍♀️  We also connect this to our DVD principles — Decision, Visualization, and Discipline — and see how they integrate these streams of healing into our everyday lives. By making decisions to heal, visualizing ourselves whole, and committing to the discipline of consistent healing practices, we unlock our deepest potential for growth. 🌿💪 If you’re ready to embrace full, compassionate healing, this episode is for you.
