Ep 62 Navigating Self-Abandonment

In this episode, we discuss self-abandonment and all the different ways it shows up. We share stories of our personal experiences with self-abandonment and what they’ve taught us. We talk about some of the implicit and explicit messages we receive in childhood, how an attempt to control our environment is often the consistent theme underneath most of our maladaptive behaviors, the extent to which a patriarchal society pushes us to feel unsafe being our authentic selves, and what you can expect from our upcoming virtual retreat. There’s still time to join us at our upcoming LIVE virtual retreat, “From Self Abandonment to Inner Belonging” on June 25-27, 2021. Visit vanessabennett.com/retreats for more information.

Om Podcasten

Vanessa Bennett and Dené Logan are two soul sisters and therapists who connected over their shared love of depth psychology—known as the psychology of the soul. It is a template for diving beneath the surface to examine the complex natures of being human while on the quest for wholeness, including the relationship to spirit. Through their training and lived experiences with depth, yogic psychology, and mindfulness, they developed a passion for supporting others in living their most authentic lives while cultivating a fulfilling and rich relationship with the Self, capital “S.”Every Wednesday, Vanessa and Dené look to demystify, de-stigmatize, and desensitize what goes on both inside the therapy room and in daily life, through soul-provoking conversations with fellow seekers, thought leaders, changemakers, and real people during live coaching sessions as they navigate the hard work it takes to be a human.This podcast is, for sure, Cheaper Than Therapy. Follow Cheaper Than TherapyInstagram: @cheaperthantherapypodcastTikTok: @cheaperthantherapypodYouTube: @cheaperthantherapypodcastConnect with Vanessa:Instagram: @vanessasbennettTikTok: @thecodayodaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@vanessabennettlmft5631 Connect with Dené:Instagram: @dene.loganTikTok: @denelogan
