SELF LOVE LEGACY

Slut, whore, tart, hoochie, skank, hoe, or anything similar are all words that you will never hear me say, not even joking around with friends!

In this episode, we will break it down how no matter how many people you have slept with it does not make you a slut. Sex is complicated and there is no reason to make it more complicated by beating yourself up for your choices. Excited to hear your thoughts on this episode.

Today's affirmation is "I Allow Myself To Receive Everything I Desire." So many of us block ourselves from allowing good into our life, no matter big or small. It is time we sat and gave ourselves permission to receive everything we desire.  

So say it with me... I allow myself to receive everything I desire!

The power in the divine feminine energy can literally knock someone off their chair, just the way a masculine divine could as well - Whitnee Nicely

In this episode of Self Love Legacy, we have invite Whitnee Nicley to give us insights about masculine and feminine energy, and how it affects our daily interactions with others especially our relationships with our partners, family, and even with our children.

Whitnee Nicley is your guide for healing and transformation. She channels her energy and knowledge to transform lives by helping us discover their own divine masculine and feminine energy breakdown to bring internal energy balance leading to the truest versions of ourselves.

Episode Timeline:

[03:11]

People's basic knowledge of masculine and feminine energy is more around gender roles. Masculine & feminine energy has nothing to do with sexual orientation or sexuality.

[03:31]

Masculine energy is more in line with being a leader, being protective, it's more energy going out.

[04:03]

Feminine energy is about being in touch with your intuition, being empathetic, being able to let flow happen, and allowing energy in. It is connected to their spiritual self, to their higher self, and to God.

[05:39]

The call of the new world and our new future is about integrating a balance of masculine and feminine energy within oneself.

[09:22]

Most of us are not perfect in both. We tend to lean a little more one way or the other, a little more masculine, and a little more feminine.

[10:44]

For any major life shift (grief, loss, having children, marriage wars), you have to remember everything has a vibrational signature. So it's going to affect you vibrationally, which could affect your masculine feminine balance. It really is a lifelong journey.

[18:14]

Sometimes feminine energy is about holding space, and believing in spirit and God, and the integration of what will be will be. A lot of people have a hard time with that when they have a lot of overactive masculine energy because they want to control, they want to see things pan out a certain way because that's their safety zone that makes them feel more secure. 

[26:58]

Look at the ones you have already grown and the ones that you're already strong in. Because you need to know that in terms of knowing what direction you want to go in, or where you lean because these are things you may want to really keep. It's better to be authentic, which is more in line with divine energy.

In this episode of Self Love Legacy The Podcast, we are going head to head to know the difference between self-love and self-care.

What is self-love?

[02:52]

Self-love means loving yourself unapologetically through the good times and the bad, through the ups and the downs. Self-love is loving yourself unconditionally no matter what.

It is also allowing yourself to feel the emotions as they come up, to grieve, to forgive, to help yourself and or people.

[3:28]

Self-care is the daily actions that we do to help us achieve self-love. Example of self-care activities are relaxing bubble bath at the end of the day or going to your favorite museum to relax. Being out in nature and being just with yourself. Those are acts to help you get familiar with yourself.

Self-care are acts to remind that you should prioritize yourself to make sure that you are getting closer to self-love.

YOU CAN HAVE SELF-CARE WITHOUT HAVING SELF-LOVE by still:

• Beating yourself up every day
• Refusing to forgive yourself for mistakes
• Being your worst critic in your head

On the other hand, YOU CAN HAVE SELF-LOVE AND SELF-CARE by:

[04:39]

If you are fully in the state of self-love and you are loving yourself unapologetically, you are naturally doing self-care maintenance to stay in a place of self-love.

[05:28]

Confusions are around the fact that if we love ourselves, we have to be okay and feel happy every single time. Absolutely not. Going through life in general means you are going to have negative emotions. It is okay to grieve and be angry and acknowledge that those emotions are healthy. It just means you are human.

[08:53]

Self-love is accepting that you are human. It is forgiving yourself for your shortcomings. It is wanting to learn and improve the relationship that you have with yourself and others around you. It is the self-awareness that really helps us stay in a beautiful state of self-love, where we can accept all sides of us and see all sides of us is beautiful and loving.

You can have Self Care without ever getting to Self Love!

Self Care is a tool to help you get to Self Love.

Are you suffocating yourself and or others with your overwhelming positivity??? Are you thinking there is no such thing as being too positive?? Then this is the episode for you. In this episode, we are going to ripe off the band-aide and expose toxic positivity for what it really is... hurtful, shaming, damaging, and leaves victims feeling alone, not seen or heard, and isolated. 

Toxic Positivity and How It Is Impacting Your Emotional Wellbeing

Are you masking your emotions with positivity? Did you know that this is toxic? We often push our positivity as the socially acceptable response to others and ourselves when we should be offering our support instead. 

Feelings are natural, healthy, and empowering and not something to be ignored or be ashamed of. It is important to allow yourself or others to go through the darkness in order to find the purpose and be truly happy. 

In this episode, I talk about toxic positivity and how we have normalized the response of ‘be positive’ all the time. We’re sometimes pushed to positivity by religion or spirituality where we fail to acknowledge what is really going on but rather putting our emphasis on other things. 

Listen in to learn the importance of expressing your anger in a safe and healthy space.

Episode’s Timeline:

• [4:49] Defining toxic positivity. 
• [6:18] How we unknowingly shoot our positivity at others instead of offering our support. 
• [7:36] How my therapist taught me a lesson on the importance of allowing people to go through the darkness without intervening with my positivity.
• [9:56] The beginning of the true meaning of positive thinking- being truly happy by feeling your emotions and darkness and later finding the purpose in them.
• [13:43] The power of acknowledging and expressing your emotions healthily and safely. 
• [16:21] Learning to move forward with support rather than pushing positivity all the time even with yourself.
