Let’s talk about it. That deep ache to be seen. The times you bent yourself in half just to be picked. The moments you overgave, stayed too long, or said “yes” when your soul was screaming “no.”

This episode is for the part of you that thought being chosen meant being worthy.

And it’s time to rewrite that story.

In this episode of the Grow & Glow Guide Podcast, we’re breaking down:

🔸 Why we chase approval, connection, and closeness — even at the cost of ourselves

🔸 How self-abandonment becomes a habit we mistake for love

🔸 The difference between validation and true self-worth

🔸 5 steps to begin healing the pattern of overperforming just to be picked

🔸 And a reminder that your worth isn’t up for negotiation. It’s yours, no matter who claps.

🧍🏽‍♀️ Whether it was childhood wounds, past relationships, or a fear of being alone — this cycle ends now.

🌱 GROW & GLOW CHALLENGE

Theme: Stop waiting to be chosen — choose YOU.

1. Write a letter to the version of you who begged to be picked. Let her know: “You were always enough. You never had to chase love. You can rest now.”
2. Identify one moment this week where you feel the urge to perform, please, or prove. Ask yourself: “Am I doing this from truth or a need to be accepted?”
3. Affirm this daily: 🗣 “I no longer beg to be seen by people who refuse to recognize me.”
4. Do one thing just for YOU. Not for applause. Not to be liked. Not to be picked. For your peace. For your healing. For your freedom.

We’re doing the work over here — and every episode is one step closer to freedom.

It’s time to stop performing. It’s time to start honoring yourself.

You ever look up and realize you’re in the same emotional space, the same type of relationship, the same dead-end situation — all over again?

This week on the Glow & Grow Guide Podcast, we’re getting to the ROOT of it. We’re talking about why cycles repeat in our lives, how to spot them, and most importantly — how to break free.

Whether it’s emotional patterns, toxic relationships, or limiting beliefs…

This episode will help you reclaim your power and rewrite your story.

💬 What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why the same patterns keep showing up
• How cycles are formed (and how to unlearn them)
• 5 steps to start breaking the cycle today
• How to choose differently — even when it feels uncomfortable

📝 GLOW & GROW CHALLENGE:

1️⃣ Write down one pattern in your life that keeps repeating

2️⃣ Identify the trigger or emotion that starts it

3️⃣ Ask: What’s the belief behind this pattern?

4️⃣ Replace that belief with a truth that supports your growth

5️⃣ Choose one small action this week that breaks the cycle

🧠 Because awareness is the first step — but action is what sets you free.

🦋 Let’s glow & grow, y’all.

Because protecting your peace is only the beginning — keeping it takes courage.

You set the boundary. You finally said no. You told the truth.

And then came the guilt trip…

The silence…

The “you’ve changed” comments…

In Episode 16 of the Glow & Grow Guide Podcast, I’m breaking down what happens when people don’t like your growth — and how to stay rooted in your boundary even when it’s uncomfortable.

You’ll learn:

🛑 How pushback shows up (guilt trips, gaslighting, emotional manipulation)

🧠 What to do when someone tries to make you feel like the problem

💬 How to restate your boundary without overexplaining

🧍🏽‍♀️ Why you don’t need approval to honor your truth

GLOW & GROW CHALLENGE: Stand Firm Anyway

This week, I want you to practice holding the line.

1. Choose a boundary you’ve already tried to set — but someone pushed back.
2. Write down how you want to restate it — clearly and without apology.

Example: “Like I mentioned earlier, I’m not available for that.”

Or: “I understand it’s frustrating, but my answer remains the same.”

1. Say it out loud. Practice it. Own it. Breathe through it.
2. Hold the line. Even if they get uncomfortable. Even if you feel guilty. Because protecting your peace isn’t about pleasing them — it’s about choosing you.

💬 Let me know in the comments what boundary you’re holding this week — or which type of pushback you’ve faced before.

✨ Share this with someone who’s been second-guessing their glow.

It’s time to stop shrinking.

Hold the boundary. Even when they push back. 💛
