SPEAKER_00:

I have colleagues and they will challenge certain things oh but is it this and is it that and no it is what I said it is you know I don't challenge the experience of my clients because I understand what you went through I understand what's going on here

SPEAKER_01:

Greetings everyone and welcome to another episode of Naturally You Radio. My name is Leah Summer, I'm a Naturally You coach and we are here to support Black women on their journey to eating for health, thinking for happiness and living in harmony. And in today's podcast I would like to welcome the amazing Hannah who is a counsellor and therapist and moving into other areas of healing and she's someone that I've followed on social media for a while and it's been delightful to see her journey. And I wanted to introduce her to you all and to speak to her. And one of the things that she, when I asked her, what would you like to speak about on this? The thing that she wanted to speak about is absolutely so important for Black women to hear the conversation and acknowledge that in their own life. But before we go into that, Hannah, welcome to Naturally You Radio, and could you introduce yourself to everyone?

SPEAKER_00:

Hi, Leah. Thank you so much for inviting me on. How exciting. So I'm Hannah. I am a counsellor. I've been a counsellor for eight years, and I am moving into coaching as well. And I believe we met when I came to you. Yeah, you did. Yeah. Which is fantastic. I loved

SPEAKER_01:

it. Thank you. In fact, let's start on that. So what would you say is the difference between counsellors and coaches? Because you said you are a counsellor and you're moving into...

SPEAKER_00:

So the main difference is coaching focuses on the here and now and giving you the tools to move forwards towards whatever your goals are. And with therapy, it can go backwards. back into the past, find root causes, find the original traumas of things, like sit with those and process them. So for me personally, I believe that it is all necessary. As a therapist for all these years, I'm naturally solution focused anyway. So I would kind of add coaching and CBT, which is cognitive behavioral therapy into my work anyway. So I feel that the somatic coaching for me is just adding an extra layer of, I don't know if I should call it a layer. It's more depth, working more in depth. And the therapist in me is going nowhere. So I'm always going to be wanting to help people to process and heal those past experiences and traumas.

SPEAKER_01:

So that's the point. Is there one that you think is more beneficial now? Because I know some people are like, okay, we shouldn't dwell on the past, focus on the future. Other people are like, we can't move into the future until we've dealt with the past. Which one do you think is more important? Or do you think that people should be kind of accessing both of them? I

SPEAKER_00:

feel like that is specific to the client because it depends on what they're willing to do. Sometimes our traumas aren't always... in the forefront of our minds anyway. So we don't necessarily know that a trauma is a trauma. There's a difference between big T trauma and small T traumas, which can be just everyday things that are quite common that have actually had a massive impact on your life. And not everyone thinks that it is beneficial to go back and look at that. However, if it's impacted your life, I would argue that it is beneficial to look at it. However, I don't think one is more important than the other because having the tools to move forwards in a healthy way and to adopt healthy coping strategies, I feel like is really, really important and challenging limiting beliefs so that you can live the best version of your life. It is so important. So I don't know that one is more important than the other.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, Can you just let us know what made you decide to go into therapy and counselling and then what's inspired you to add coaching, somatic coaching specifically, to the work that you're doing as well?

SPEAKER_00:

So I feel like I've grown up with this conditioned belief that Black people don't check their business. And yes, we all recognise this, right? And so I luckily did have someone that I used to speak to as a child, but I was made to feel bad for speaking about things. And I've always known deep down that this isn't right. We need to speak. And there is so much science and evidence to back that speaking therapy and talking therapy practices. is healing and growthful. So I think that soul knowing in me has always been there, but there's not been a safe space or platform or container for that. And so what's that quote? Be what you always needed. So I thought, yeah, we need... And I thought, back in the days... There wasn't really a lot of online. I mean, there was, but I wasn't really going to be working online. And so in my town, there isn't a lot of black therapists. So I thought we need to talk. Black people need to talk. We need to start our healing. And that's, yeah, that's really what kind of drove me to become a counsellor.

SPEAKER_01:

And do you think that... how do you feel when, about the idea that, basically the idea of, you know, the idea of this podcast and the work that a lot of more people are doing now, where we are arguing that Black people need to work with Black practitioners, because that is basically the work that I'm doing, but I'm happy to be challenged on it. But how do you, as a Black practitioner, do you feel that, that it's important, how important do you feel it is? I'm not even gonna go into do you think it's important, because I think that's standard. Everyone knows it's important that Black people work with other Black people, but can you just let us know why? Why is there a difference when a Black person works with a Black practitioner versus a practitioner of other cultures?

SPEAKER_00:

So there are a few basic conditions for therapy, and one of them is empathy. And so when you are working with, when you're a black person, you're working with a black therapist, immediately you have common understanding. So I believe in the black experience and another black person, we just understand it. So clients can say certain things to me and I understand what you're saying. Whereas I have colleagues and they're

SPEAKER_01:

not listening you can say what you need to say

SPEAKER_00:

yeah I have colleagues and they will challenge certain things oh but is it this and is it that and no it is what I said it is you know I don't challenge the experience of my clients because I understand what you went through I understand what's going on here you know and I think that's so important because People need to feel heard. They need to feel understood. That's kind of very, that's very significant for vulnerability. For someone to feel comfortable to open up to you, they have to feel like you're going to understand them as a person and what they're saying. So if you're going to go to your white therapist and talk about your black experience, they might not understand or they'll say, oh yeah, but is it because of this? Can't be that

SPEAKER_01:

bad.

SPEAKER_00:

Exactly. Because there's just not that base. I mean, don't get me wrong. They can draw from other experiences in their lives when they have been marginalised. But you just know that when you go to a black therapist, you're going to have that basic understanding.

SPEAKER_01:

So what inspired you to go from that to add coaching? And specifically somatic coaching. And for those that don't know what somatic coaching is, if you can let them, you know, let people know what somatic coaching is and what made you choose to add that to the work that you're doing.

SPEAKER_00:

So somatic is all about the body and embodying your, so really feeling and witnessing your emotions, connecting with the body and And most importantly, drawing your answers from the body. And I feel that that kind of reads trust in yourself, which is key for guiding yourself through life, really. So with speaking therapy or counselling, talking therapy, I should say, I have found that there is a limit to where I can take my clients and I can give the tools and But it's really up to the client to go away and implement the tools. Whereas in somatic coaching, we're using the tools in the session. So we're starting off the session with grounding into your body. So immediately, you're relaxing into the session. You're releasing your shoulders. You're releasing the tension. You're grounding. You're feeling your body in the session because we are going to... focus on whatever is present in your body and that's where the work starts. And the key focus is on observation and witnessing and being curious. And I feel like for a lot of black people, we're often in survival mode quite a lot. And so we're often quite detached from our bodies and our bodies are here as messengers really to let us know certain things are going on for us so if you have a certain pain in your body or a certain tension that's there I guess as a signal to let you know what is going on in your environment if you need to change something if you need to like something might be out of balance and so the body has so much information for us that I think that is so important to listen and connect with it And when you notice it and really feel into it, it magically heals itself. So you've heard the phrase, you've got to feel it to heal it, right? And so somatic coaching for me is really adding in that feeling part into my work. And also, I didn't mention I'm an energy healer as well. So yeah, I love all of it. Yeah, so somatic healing really brings in the... intuitive side of it and the um soma the body the body side of it as well so for me it's more complete it's body mind and soul i recommend the whole person holistic i love it

SPEAKER_01:

yes so again for people that for sisters that aren't aware of what um energy healing is. And I think it's becoming a lot more popular with black women. I literally spoke to someone who took, who is a social worker. She went on a healing journey, took six months off work. And she, one of the things she did is studied Reiki. I studied Reiki when I was younger. And I think Reiki is maybe the one thing that people do know about. But again, for sisters that don't know what Reiki is, to know whether it's something they might want to implement in their lives, explain what energy healing is in general. So,

SPEAKER_00:

okay, start from the beginning. Everything is energy, right? And so energy healing is basically using yourself as a conduit to channel energy, right? When you are Reiki attuned, your hands are activated to hold a lot more energy and light. And so when that's channeled, either in person to somebody or even remotely, as long as the recipient is relaxed and open to receiving, that healing energy will go to where it's needed. Exactly.

SPEAKER_01:

Okay, so again, people have no idea about any of this. Where is the energy coming from in the first place?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh my gosh, we're going deep. Okay.

SPEAKER_01:

We're going to the beginning, literally for someone that's never heard of energy healing before. Where is the energy that we're talking about? Where is it even coming from?

SPEAKER_00:

So this is sometimes described as chi or prana and it is universal energy. I'm just going to say this is like coming straight from God itself. as a channel through the conduit to the recipient. So universal energy, light, basically. Everything is energy, we're just channeling it. So... Which

SPEAKER_01:

one did you... Which... Did you do Reiki?

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. So I did all of the levels of Reiki. However, I don't call myself a Reiki healer because... I learned Reiki in a big class of people and I was mainly taught to do it intuitively. So I, being a good student, I used my intuition. And when I opened my eyes, I was doing things very different to how other people were doing it in the class. And it's like my body, when I say I'm a conduit, my body literally takes me, pushes me, pulls me. I find myself doing the most intuitive, wild things in a Reiki session and this is how I know it's not it's not my energy something is like helping me to move the energy to where it needs to be and and transmute and all of this so I don't do typical Reiki and so that's why I don't call myself a Reiki healer I say energy healer um I was attuned again in a large group of people and before the guy got to me to attune my hands they were radiating so it's like I had a soul remembrance just by being in that environment and it's like the environment was just set there to give my mental body permission to allow this energy through that has obviously already been with me that I just didn't know so yeah that's why nice

SPEAKER_01:

so with all the things that you do how how do you help how do you help your clients what is it that clients how can clients benefit from the work that you do how can they benefit from the combination of the therapy the coaching um the somatic healing the energy healing you know is there just kind of like one specific thing that it helps with? Because a sister might have a lot of things going on and she may not even know whether any of this is gonna be beneficial and is gonna help her. So what kind of people or what kind of conditions or symptoms or challenges does the work that you do help people with?

SPEAKER_00:

So I would say, so common, mental health issues like anxiety, stress, depression, work stress, family relationships, like all of the common things are what people generally come into therapy for. With the somatic side of it, this even extends into physical pains because we can really look into those, feel into them, see what that pain is, wanting to tell you, wanting to let you know what the imbalance is. And with the somatic coaching as well, it is trauma-informed, and I am a therapist, so I've already been working in a trauma-informed way. So, you know, depending on your level of trauma, I could definitely help there. And with the healing, there is something kind of– well, not for everyone necessarily, because with the somatic coaching– there is a need to go a little bit deeper. So if you're very left-brained, very logical thinker, the somatic coaching might not suit you as much. But if you're open to exploring, exploring your body and exploring your intuition and seeing how you can heal yourself, then yeah, definitely, I think it would be beneficial for those types of people.

SPEAKER_01:

Thank you. Can you give us some examples of the somatic healing, for example, some practical somatic healing exercises that you do with clients that sisters can do on their own to start that kind of journey of somatic healing and feeling their body?

SPEAKER_00:

Mm-hmm. I... I feel like what I'm going to say, people are going to already know. Things like grounding, like grounding yourself, like feeling, like really tuning.

SPEAKER_01:

Not everyone knows what grounding is. Okay. Yeah. So even if you could explain what grounding is, and then if you can describe a process that someone can do to ground and what they will, you know, how they will benefit from doing that process.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah. So grounding, when I say grounding, what I mean is kind of really feeling in your body in the present moment, not thinking about the past or the future, just being present in the moment in your body. So this means feeling your feet on the floor, Feeling your body on whatever you're sitting on or laying on. You could even do a body scan. So you're feeling every single part of your body. So your feet, starting from your toes, your feet, your ankles, going all the way up your body and really feeling into that and feeling grounded. and embodied, we can take this further and put your feet on the natural ground. And that's what most people mean when they say grounding is connecting with the earth because earth has an energy and we are energized by connecting with it without our shoes on. Grounding as well is one of the tools for anxiety. So really connecting into your senses like what can you see what can you hear what can you smell what can you taste what can you touch and that again draws you out of your anxiety which is looking into the future draws you out of your depression which is based in your past into the um present moment being focused um on what is happening in the here and now another great one is gratitude um i've Yeah, I do use this in somatic coaching as well, is gratitude. Being grateful for having all of your needs met in this now moment. So in this exact moment right now, all my needs are met. And that is really good to ground you into the present moment. Because life is so fast paced and we often kind of get lost in that moment. and get quite disconnected. So yeah, that's what I mean by grounding. There's a lot of meanings to grounding.

SPEAKER_01:

Yeah. And what kind of, can you describe an exact practice that someone can do to ground themselves?

SPEAKER_00:

So if you're going to use a body scan, you can do just that. You can sit still and focus on your body in part. You can do these guided as well. There are things online where you can, someone will speak you through it. And so often when something is, or done in community, it's easier to tune in, but you can do it by yourself just by stopping for a minute, sitting still, and literally focusing on each part of your body. And that is going to ground you into the present moment. So that is a practice that you can use. Do you do it in a particular order or? Good question. Yeah, no, I would do it in order. Yeah. But is that just because I'm just like that? It's okay. It's just having something that they can get

SPEAKER_01:

away with, yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah, I would do it in order, starting from the feet upwards, just because it would flow more naturally and you're less likely to think, what have I missed out? You don't necessarily want to think too much about it. You more want to kind of embody it and ease into it.

UNKNOWN:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

So yeah, I would do each part in turn.

SPEAKER_01:

Cool. Do you have any examples or case studies of people that you've worked with and different kind of challenges that they've had and then they've worked with you and what's happened afterwards?

SPEAKER_00:

So many. I think... this is what keeps me in this job, is that feeling of, oh my gosh, did that actually just happen? I think when you, okay, specifically black women. I've had some clients who, I think you touched on it earlier, are doing a certain thing in their life because they've been guided to because of parents or family members or expectation in some way. And in therapy, in psychological theory, we call this your ideal self. And this isn't necessarily in alignment with your true self. And so you're living out an ideal version of yourself based on your community, based on the need to be validated, accepted, and that's what we need the most because we're communal beings. It's like we survive best in community. And so you're doing something that is not necessarily in alignment with your true self. And so when we really look at that and unpack it and challenge the beliefs, maybe find some autonomy, look at autonomy and personal agency, I have seen people who have maybe had like side hustles that were making the money the whole time, but they're doing this other thing to suit somebody else. And I'm just like, but it's clear that this thing is already successful, but because whoever it may be, they don't approve of it. They're not making that thing their main thing. And so I've seen the switch happen. In therapy. So they've kind of made that their main thing and their career's just gone off. And I'm just like, huh? Wow. Sometimes I'm shocked myself by when you really challenge your beliefs and why you're doing certain things, massive changes can be made. And I feel like actually that's another thing that we grow up Believing is that life has to be hard and you have to work hard and you have to do a job just to survive and to get money and to pay the bills. And this is the way that you live your life. And for me, I'm more like empowerment. I love seeing someone doing what they love, regardless of what that is. I love seeing that in someone. So that's naturally where I'll go to. Like, where is your heart at? That's where I want to see you. And so I've had many clients who have changed careers whilst being with me and just finding something more aligned to them. It's kind of like being given permission to be you. And it is okay to just be you. because actually that's your gift and that's the blessing that you're here to give the world is to be you.

SPEAKER_01:

So one of the things that we spoke about, which is in alignment with what you were just talking about is the very negative trope of being a strong black woman. Can you speak on that? Your thoughts and feelings on it, the repercussions of it? Yeah,

SPEAKER_00:

the repercussions are that you're going to hold things inside that are most probably going to cause pain in some way, either mental, physical or otherwise. For me, this was modelled to me strongly. And perhaps I do maybe still suffer a little bit in my life. However, you kind of grow up thinking, okay, you kind of suck it up and you get on with it and you don't ask for help. And actually throughout my journey, I've learned that that is kind of the opposite to strength and I've learned that actually there's power in vulnerability. Sometimes I think being strong black women means that you don't reach out for help. You don't connect with other people. You don't allow other people to help you. And people therefore don't know how to help you because they don't think that you, they don't envisage you like that. Someone who needs to be looked after or nurtured. So naturally they're not going to be that way with you. However, I feel like that leads to a lot of denial. So not focusing on past traumas, not focusing on maladaptive behaviors, perhaps even using like anger or aggression as a go-to I feel like that's quite common. And not really looking at where that comes from or not kind of going back through the generations to see, okay, this really isn't even my anger. This isn't really the strong black women. I don't even need to be strong anymore. I have, you know, I have a community around me. I have people I can lean on. I can actually ask for help. And people would feel privileged to help me.

SPEAKER_03:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00:

So I feel that it is so detrimental because it kind of encourages avoidance of issues, denial of issues. And I believe after learning all that I have that actually there's strength in meeting your issues head on. That's hard. Really looking at your wounds, that's hard. This is why people don't really come to therapy because it's hard. It's not necessarily a nice experience. It's not like popping a pill. It's not that easy. Yeah. You have to look at things that aren't nice to look at. You have to see things and people for who they really are. You have to look at yourself and say, okay, maybe this isn't an ideal behaviour, attitude, thought, feeling, and perhaps change it. And change is also incredibly difficult for certain types of people, so...

SPEAKER_01:

So what if someone says, okay, Hannah, I hear all of that. I have to be strong. I don't have time to talk about my feelings. I don't have a community. Nobody does care about me. I am all on my own. Maybe I'm a single mother. or, you know, my husband's too busy to talk to me or my parents are not very affectionate. I have to, I have to be this way. That's why I am this way. So with all the nice chat about, I don't have to be strong, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I have to do this.

SPEAKER_00:

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01:

Say to that sister.

SPEAKER_00:

That is so funny because that used to be me. I used to be like, I haven't got time for emotions. I haven't got time to cry. I have to go and work so that my lights work. And so I've got food in the fridge, right? Which is true. We need to survive. We live in a 3D world where we have to do certain things to get money, which we need to exchange for the things that we want, for the life that we want to live. However, I feel like there is a need for balance in this. Like I said, nobody can help you if they don't know that you need help. So, yes, always, number one, our reptilian brain, our ego is there to make sure that we survive. And so that is our primal part of our brain. So before you do anything, you're going to scan the situation and think, right, what's the danger here?

SPEAKER_03:

And

SPEAKER_00:

so... We're always geared towards survival, whatever that means. And we've been brought up to think that, okay, working hard is how you survive. Which isn't necessarily always the case. Sometimes asking for help is how you survive. Sometimes letting people know around you, I'm struggling with this, this and this. Somebody else might have a better idea than you. So I would say... Yes, we're always, always going to put ourselves and our survival first because the organism always wants to remain alive. However, I would find balance. I would challenge when you could ask for help, maybe when you could relax. Do you always need to be on guard? Can we relax? Can we put ourselves first for a minute, you know, for... an hour a week, at least, if you can. Can you find some sacred space, some sacred time, just to not have to be strong? And I think humans are communal beings. We are communal beings. We are meant to be together. And along the way, that has gotten lost. Although I think Black people are very communal beings, definitely. We like being together and partying together and all of that stuff. But I think, yeah, reach out for community of people who are trusted and that you can be vulnerable with.

SPEAKER_01:

On that, at the beginning you were talking about traumas, big traumas, small traumas, and we obviously have the dynamic that a lot of Black women are not feeling like they can be vulnerable or they're not feeling like they can ask for help because... there has been a trauma in the past and it could have been a big T or a small T trauma, like an acute trauma or a chronic trauma, but something in their past has led them to believe when they're vulnerable, when they experience feelings, even like with yourself, when you were younger and you did express your feelings and you got shut down or you got questioned or you got, you were told your feelings are not true or I didn't really mean that or when... When that's happened, how would we then encourage that sister? Because you're saying to them, you need to be more vulnerable. They're going to be like, sis, I've been vulnerable and I got, that's why I'm traumatised. How can we help that sister?

SPEAKER_00:

I feel like finding people who you are in alignment with. And like I said before, we naturally scan for danger. So looking for people who are safe sisters. to be vulnerable with. So maybe that is a therapist or a coach or a mentor of some sort. Maybe it starts off being someone who is trained at listening and holding space. But even just finding new people in softer spaces, I feel like there are a lot of black women looking for healing and going to healing spaces like sister circles and black yoga and places like that and I feel like do you know do you know okay sometimes your soul just knows this woman I can trust her because yeah sometimes you just see a woman that just looks like an oracle yeah and you just want to

SPEAKER_03:

hug her

SPEAKER_00:

yeah there are and in psychology we call this the good enough mother oh yeah so there will be a person somewhere in your life who will fill in the gaps that your primary caregivers left. So there will be someone there. It's just a case of finding them. So you have to trust that they're there. Right. And then keep your eyes open because you'll attract the people that you need.

SPEAKER_01:

What would you... What advice would you give... Black women at this time, just like sister to sister, on how they can look after their mental health, especially with the kind of challenges that are almost always present. you know, and obviously now we have access to social media and the news, and not only are we knowing, learning about what's happening or living what's happening in our own world, we're also being exposed to the challenges of our family everywhere that right now we have another LA riot happening right now, you know, mainly targeting black and brown people. And, you know, we, both of us are in the UK and, So we're seeing the rise of the reform party and the rise of basically people who want to bring back more institutional racism. Even in music, literally Beyonce won best singer. country and western album and now the grammys are saying next year there's going to be two different country and western awards one for traditional country and one for contemporary country they're segregating and awards um and all of these things are you know and then the microaggressions you might experience in your own life the trauma you're going through um There's a lot. There's a lot of mental load. And as mothers, and I know a lot of mothers are in our network as well, mothers already carry a mental load. And then we're getting a mental load from social media and the world in general. What kind of advice would you give Black women as to how they can look after themselves during this time?

SPEAKER_00:

So I would probably... Oh, my light's just gone out. I would probably... Limit the amount of media that you're consuming. If you have the ability to observe but not consume it, then fantastic. But if you find that you're really embodying all of this bad news, I would probably just steer clear of it. Me, myself, I don't. You just told me my news today. I don't. Because you have to protect your peace, right? You know, a lot of media is after your attention because it's that valuable. It's your energy. They want your energy. And so I think maybe even that, recognising that your energy is all that you have and it needs your protection and just focus on where you're directing your energy. Like I said, you want to be putting into yourself, pouring into yourself, pouring into yourself. It's so easy to... We're naturally empathic beings. So when you see other black people on the news being brutalized or whatever is going on, it's going to make you angry. It's going to have an effect. It's going to have a pull on your energy. However, think about what it is that you can do with that energy. How can you channel what's now just changed in your body? What can you do with that? And sometimes it might be a case that you just protect yourself from that. And look at how you can keep yourself protected in your own community, in your own lifestyle, and just pour into you as much as possible. Really focus on yourself, I would say that. And have faith in yourself. Believe in yourself. Get to know yourself. Get to understand yourself. Yeah, that's a difficult one because I don't see that any of that is going to stop anytime soon. So I feel like protect your peace as much as possible.

SPEAKER_01:

What kind of... services can you let the sisters know about the kind of services that you offer and the kind of you know events that you do I saw that you did sacred sister circle the kind of things that they can access and how they can find you to to access the the one-to-one help and support or the group one group support that you offer um

SPEAKER_00:

so I do counselling and coaching online. And you can find me at info at hnicholsontherapy.com or I'm on social medias as Hannah Nicholson 1010 on Instagram and Hannah Nicholson on Facebook. I'm currently only doing my circles in person, which is in Buckinghamshire. However, next year, I am looking to put them online. So there will be various different circles that you can get involved with, and they will heavily be taking you through that somatic experience where you really connect with yourself and have transformational experiences. The circles that I've ran have been... Amazing. Again, I just love this work because the change that you see just blows me away. As long as you allow yourself to be vulnerable enough to feel. Yes. Where else can you find me? I think they're my channels. There will be a lot more to come, but I'm not going to spoil it. So at the minute, yeah. One-to-one online or one-to-one in person in Buckinghamshire as well.

SPEAKER_01:

Before we wrap up, what do you see... in your future as far as the work that you're doing and how do you feel that that's going to impact, you know, the people that you work with, your local community, your circle and the world in general?

SPEAKER_00:

Oh, wow.

SPEAKER_01:

The

SPEAKER_00:

world in general. Well, one person can make a difference. Do you know what I love the most is each one teach one. So with all of the things that I'm bringing into my practice now, I'm hoping, well, I know that I will help more than one person, but even if I only helped one person, that person is going to go on to help one person and that person might just go on to help another person. And so it goes on. And so that's how we make an impact in the world. And so going back to what you were saying with, you know, looking, watching what is going on in the world and how that makes you feel. If you can keep your vibration really high, channel that light, and affect even just those close to you, then that effect will ripple out. And that's how we change the world, by being the best version of ourselves. And that's why I love it. That's why I love it.

SPEAKER_01:

Excellent. Thank you so much, Hannah. Thank you for being here and for sharing so honestly and for sharing tools that the sisters can go away with. And I look forward to, again, I'm going to share all your links with everyone, put them on the screen, put them in the notes so everyone can find you. Do you have any closing words or any closing messages for our sisters before we wrap up today? I

SPEAKER_00:

think believe in yourself, have faith in yourself, give yourself sacred space, know that you are a glimmer of light. You are a fragment of God. Know how blessed you are and let's all just keep it moving in love. Thank you, sis.
