How To Stay Sovereign When The World Knocked Your Crown Off

Episode Summary

Key Takeaways: Maintain sovereignty and stay grounded despite what is happening around you. Practice sovereignty daily to develop resilience amidst crises. Seeking excessive control diminishes peace; embrace flexibility. Reclaim sovereignty through presence, grounding, and intuition. Move beyond binary thinking and win-lose dichotomy; embrace a third way. Lean into lived experience, coping abilities, and third-way solutions to navigate crises. Foster resilience through intentional spaces, supportive relationships, and community-building. Reclaim sovereignty and power through boundaries, self-advocacy, and maintaining high standards. Inner worth transcends outcomes. “Sovereignty means that I say how I feel and I define who I am regardless of the circumstance.” “The more you need control, the more out of control you feel.” “Lean into the experiences that you have had, and also, understand that there are people around you who have been through this. Watch them and pay attention to how they move through these crises.” - Maryanne Dersch Ask for and receive all you want, need and deserve without feeling rejected, ineffective, or pushy.
