In this episode of the Healing Talks Podcast, we explore tuning in to your desires and granting yourself permission to honor them.  We delve into the concept of permission in both big and small ways (from making life-changing decisions to giving yourself permission to just rest more). We’ll also examine why we often don't grant ourselves permission, or aren’t yet sure what our inner voice is even saying. If you're feeling overwhelmed or burnt out, this episode offers valuable insights into exploring your own limits and granting yourself the permission to make changes that will help you feel like you.  This episode has journaling prompts to accompany the conversation, too.
