Description

Self-intimacy is the foundation of healing—learning to deeply know, trust, and care for yourself.

In this episode, I share how I reclaimed my sense of self after years of self-abandonment and explore four key components of self-intimacy:

1. Practicing self-forgiveness and self-compassion
2. Setting boundaries to protect your well-being
3. Tuning into body signals and incorporating somatic practices
4. Rebuilding self-trust by showing up for yourself

Healing isn’t just about moving forward—it’s about reconnecting with who you truly are.
