Episode 31: You’re a Prize, Sister: The Power of Self-Worth (w/ Netta Fei)
Manage episode 489098917 series 3609063
When you own your power you don’t settle for less than you deserve. It means standing up for what’s right and making decisions that align with your divine purpose. Because self-love starts when you stop making excuses for being unhappy and begin to really listen to your own heart.
In this episode with Netta Fei, we explore the powerful connection between self-worth, self-love, and the choices we make in relationships. Netta Fei shares how her journey through a 20-year marriage shaped her debut novel, A Most Useful Betrothal, and gave her the courage to reclaim her voice. Together, we unpack the quiet truths we overlook, the signs we ignore, and the healing that begins when we stop conforming and start loving ourselves again.
