60. Staying Present in the Ashes | The Hard Part After Boundaries

You don’t owe everyone access to you.
But what no one talks about is what happens after you set the boundary.

Join PRESENCE Presale

In this episode, we talk about the part that comes after you leave the relationship, get sober, set the boundary, or change your life, its the in-between phase. The uncertain, uncomfortable season where everything feels quiet, scary, and unclear. I call this the “ashes” or the “soup” phase. This is the part where the caterpillar turns into soup before it becomes a butterfly.

This episode is about staying present in that phase, because that’s where most people go back, relapse, sabotage good things, or numb out just to escape the discomfort.

What we talk about in this episode:

• Why you don’t owe everyone your presence or access
• What boundaries really are and why they change your life
• The hardest part is what comes after the boundary
• Staying present in the “ashes” and uncertainty
• The caterpillar turning into soup before becoming a butterfly
• The seed needing darkness before it grows
• Why people relapse, go back to toxic relationships, or sabotage good opportunities
• My experiences with an abusive relationship, sobriety, divorce, estrangement, and heartbreak
• Why tools and support are necessary in the in-between phase
• Turning pain into growth and not interrupting your own miracle
• Choosing the butterfly again and again
