Ep 42 Connection

Nov 24

Are you "phoning it in" or truly showing up in your life and relationships? True connection begins with a ruthless commitment to authenticity—connecting to what is happening inside yourself first.

In this deeply human episode, Felicia, Devin, and Chris navigate technical glitches and personal emotional challenges (including the anniversary of a great loss) to demonstrate the power of authentic presence in real time. They reveal why hiding your feelings is a disempowering act of self-disconnection that immediately compromises your relationships.

You’ll discover:

The Functional Approach to Connection: Why connecting to your own "tenderness" or frustration is the critical first step to genuinely meeting others.
The Clarity of Needs: Learn how self-connection instantly clarifies what you need (e.g., "I need rest," "I need a hug"), transforming "frantic searchy energy" into peace.
The Disconnection Body Scan: Chris shares her visceral experience of "body compression" and high blood pressure when attempting to deny feelings.
Incoherence and Inauthenticity: How our shared sensitivity to energy makes "phoning it in" obvious and damaging to connection.
A powerful guided demonstration to help you consciously compare the exhausting energy of disconnection with the empowered state of connection.

Your invitation: Stop pretending, embrace what is, and unlock deeper connection and joy.
