Take Up Space with Shafonne Myers
Manage episode 357995469 series 3308666
On this episode, we are having a threesome with Shafonne Myers! Shafonne is a multi-passionate coach, entrepreneur, and influencer who started Pretty Pear Bride; a magazine for plus-size brides.
Our show talks about how conditioned self-judgment blocks love, intimacy, and business success. We acknowledge that reclaiming self-worth isn’t a job that you do once and then you are finished. LEARNING TO CARE LESS ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE’S JUDGMENT OF YOU, ALLOWS YOU TO CARE FOR YOURSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE MORE.
Shafonne has found that no matter where she is and no matter what topic she is speaking on, she becomes an inspiration to women who are afraid to take up space. Rachel shares her feelings about her own big body. There’s new confidence during sex but she’s experienced a block about being fat as a business owner and how she’s afraid of the misconceptions or judgments of others as she works.
The entrepreneurial space is often where people are confronted with the next thing in their self-development that they need to work on.
Rachel tells us about an appointment she had earlier in the day with a plus-size client who's part of her project with 40 women over the age of 40. To see more go to Rachel’s Instagram @rachel_shootsweet.
The client warned Rachel that she just wouldn’t like any of the photos, she never likes photos of herself, but as they looked at the images of her on the beach at sunrise she loved them all! She felt powerful, proud, and beautiful.
THE IMPORTANT THING IS NOT ACTUALLY WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE, IT’S HOW YOU FEEL. When you feel happy you shine and that’s what comes through. Nothing had changed physically for these photos more than the other photos she’d had taken. THE THING THAT CHANGED IS HER PERSPECTIVE.
Clare gets the conversation heading to the good stuff - sex! And we all discuss how anybody's insecurities- size, age, scars, the list goes on - can hold us back from enjoyment. But what we all need is to remove judgment from the bedroom. REMOVING JUDGMENT OF OURSELVES ALLOWS US TO ENJOY MORE PLEASURE AND REASSURES OUR PARTNERS THAT WE’RE NOT JUDGING THEM.
Our message for any woman listening is: Show up in your life. Show up in your love life and take up space. It was only after Shafonne started sharing photos of herself that her business really blossomed. That’s the beauty of accepting yourself, it affects everything, even your business. When you feel good about yourself it will skyrocket your business AND your life.
