Ep. 19 Witch Hunt Consciousness, Self-Censorship + Sourcing Freedom From Within with Olivia Westerman

In this episode I have  one of my long time friends, soul sisters, and inspirations on the podcast to share about her experience being "cancelled" online, mastering our relationship to our pain, breaking free from the self-censorship that comes from the fear of offending/hurting others, and creating embodied safety and freedom within. We'll cover:

• Who Olivia is and about her work
• How she transformed her life experiences by learning to alchemize her pain into her gifts
• The importance of taking responsibility for our experience and how this perspective shift creates order from chaos and suffering
• Why learning to embrace discomfort is essential
• My perspective on cancel culture, witch hunt consciousness, and self-censorship 
• The difference between being committed to love vs. fear, and how you can't be in pursuit of both at the same time
• How external separation, judgment, and shame is the manifestation of internal separation, judgment, and shame
• My personal experience "cancelling" friends and mentors in the past and the undigested wound that were informing my actions when I did so
• How we re-create our wounding by searching for others (including coaches/mentors) to fulfill our unmet emotional needs, and later reject them when they don't meet our subconscious expectations
• Why we must reclaim our freedom of speech and face the fear of being "cancelled" 
• Why we must reclaim our own ability to discern truth for ourselves and learn to trust ourselves to form our own opinions and beliefs 

Resources:

• Aaron Rose for healing separation consciousness and liberating yourself from fear-based programming
• Africa Brooke for releasing self-censorship
