Episode 15: Embodying Freedom + Self-Compassion with Edinah Chewe
“At the moment I’m living a very labeless life, so to speak...and I don’t know if that’s spirituality, but I do know it’s freedom.”
IN THIS EPISODE
How do you show yourself compassion? What does freedom mean to you? In this episode, Shelby sits down with Edinah Chewe in conversation around embodying freedom and self-compassion. They discuss the freeing power of experiencing our emotions, learning what we can from them, and then releasing them without allowing them to define us. Edinah shares how a period of grief instantly shifted her relationship to fear, opening her up to more actively pursue her passions and curiosities. She gets into what a commitment to freedom looks like in her personal and professional life, and what practices center her in self-compassion along the journey. Shelby and Edinah remind us that loving and caring for ourselves empowers us to organically love and care for others with more ease. Everyone benefits when we take time to feel out what we honestly need and desire, beyond the limitations of fear or expectations. This episode will leave you feeling emboldened to move through your fears to see what freedoms lie on the other side.
