EPISODE 21: Who Are You When You’re Not Performing?

The Sacred Rebellion Against Approval Culture

Who are you… when you're not performing?
Not the people-pleaser.
Not the peacekeeper.
Not the polished version that shrinks her truth to make others comfortable.

In this episode, Dawn Elgin cracks open the performance trap so many of us were conditioned to live inside—where love had to be earned, approval came with rules, and self-abandonment wore the mask of being “good.”

You’re not here to be liked.
 You’re here to be you.

Inside this transmission, we explore:

• Why performing for approval is self-abandonment in disguise
• How your nervous system learned to equate authenticity with danger
• The sacred cost of masks and how to reclaim your truth without guilt
• Dawn’s personal story of losing (and finding) herself in marriage
• A powerful grounding practice to reclaim your sovereignty
• How Soul Alchemy can support your return to wholeness

🔎 Segment 5: Integration & Reflection

Ask yourself:

• Who do I become when I want to be accepted?
• What parts of me do I silence just to feel safe?
• What would it feel like to be fully seen—and loved anyway?

If you’ve ever felt like the “strong one,” the “nice one,” or the “peaceful one”… but inside you’re tired, resentful, and aching to just be YOU—this is for you.
