Today’s episode is for any woman who finds it difficult to put herself first and prioritise her needs, and instead gets stuck over-giving, people-pleasing and putting everything and everyone ahead of herself. In this episode, I unpack how to unravel from this pattern and stop feeling guilty, selfish or indulgent for prioritising what you need and what makes you happy.

In this episode I cover: - Why many of us as women struggle to prioritise ourselves and our needs - How our self-worth has become tied to what we achieve - Why society values masculine achievement over feminine pleasure - Why we feel guilty or selfish when we prioritise rest & self-care - Unraveling from good girl programming, over-giving & people-pleasing - Why putting yourself first isn’t selfish, it is self-loving - How sel...

It is easy for us to fall into patterns of self-abandonment when life gets busy - we begin to prioritise what needs to get done and what others need above ourselves, and in turn what we truly need becomes neglected.

I recently put a Q&A poll on my Instagram stories where I asked you how you wanted manifesting your desires to feel, and the responses came through with some very clear common themes. You shared that you wanted manifestation to feel natural, easeful, fun, effortless and enjoyable where you could trust the process and relax into the journey without stress, anxiety, self-doubt and fear. So I decided to dedicate a whole podcast episode to this topic and share with you the keys to experiencing easeful, effortless and flowing manifestations. In this episode I cover: + Manifestation is a natural process that is always happening + How you may be misusing your creative energy to create what you don’t want + The difference between manifesting intentionally vs on autopilot + The importance of aligning your energy before you take action + Why you are taking all of the action but not getting results + Why you need to surrender the ‘how’ + Manifestation is a co-creative process with the Universe + When to take action and when to surrender + Feeling guided by your intuition through the manifestation process + Embodied manifestation and the using your body as your guide + How to calm, soothe and regulate your nervous system + Holding yourself through your emotions and inner blocks + Accepting and allowing where you’re at and not resisting the process + How to have faith when you see no proof or evidence of what you want + Receiving the action steps from your intuition + Enjoy the process rather than striving for the outcome + Holding the belief that manifestation can be easy Join CREATRESS my 7-week manifestation program: https://conniechapman.com/creatress/ Full Post & Show Notes: conniechapman.com/easeful-manifestation Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdzKyrp_d8o Connect With Me: Instagram: www.instagram.com/connie_chapman Website: www.conniechapman.com If you love Awaken Radio, be sure to subscribe and leave the show a rating and review on iTunes, as this will help it reach and support more people.

I am finally emerging after going through a big transition of moving interstate and manifesting a dreamy new home, and today I am walking you through the whole process! I take you back to when this desire very first came to me, the inner and energy work I did to align with it, how I navigated the unknown, practiced surrender, and trust the divine timing and higher plan. I also share how I called in the exact home I wanted by fully claiming my desire, never settling, working with my human design, trusting my body wisdom, embodying my magnetism and never ever giving up on what I wanted (no matter how long it took). You get a big behind the scenes on my manifestation process in this episode, and I hope you enjoy it!
