00:00:01.257 --> 00:00:08.537
Well, hello, my valued listeners, and welcome back to another episode of Living in Your Power.
00:00:08.857 --> 00:00:14.557
I'm your host, Dr. Marlene Greenleaf. And before we dive into today's episode,
00:00:14.817 --> 00:00:18.857
I want to take a moment to honor the meaning of this day.
00:00:19.837 --> 00:00:27.937
On this Memorial Day, we pause to remember and give thanks for the men and women
00:00:27.937 --> 00:00:32.877
who sacrificed their lives in service to our country.
00:00:33.437 --> 00:00:38.157
We also hold space for those who carry the weight of grief today.
00:00:39.357 --> 00:00:45.557
Your loss is seen, your pain is honored, and your loved ones are remembered.
00:00:45.557 --> 00:00:52.617
May we move forward in their honor by living our lives with purpose,
00:00:53.017 --> 00:00:55.517
freedom, and gratitude.
00:00:57.817 --> 00:01:03.797
Now let's continue as we wrap up our May series, rooted in self-worth,
00:01:04.077 --> 00:01:06.737
healing, growing, and rising.
00:01:06.737 --> 00:01:14.077
Now all month long, we've been tending to the inner garden, healing old wounds,
00:01:14.437 --> 00:01:18.337
setting boundaries, nurturing ourselves with grace.
00:01:18.897 --> 00:01:23.377
And today, we will close with a bold declaration.
00:01:24.737 --> 00:01:28.677
Your worth is not up for negotiation.
00:01:30.797 --> 00:01:35.657
Living boldly is healing and wholeness.
00:01:37.637 --> 00:01:44.697
Because when you are rooted in your God-given identity, your worth is already established.
00:01:45.577 --> 00:01:49.517
You don't have to prove it. You don't have to earn it.
00:01:49.757 --> 00:01:57.337
You simply have to live it boldly, confidently, and unapologetically.
00:01:58.857 --> 00:02:00.557
So let's get into it.
00:02:02.497 --> 00:02:11.237
One of the greatest lies we are taught in this, we are taught is that our worth is conditional.
00:02:13.542 --> 00:02:21.542
I'll say that again. One of the greatest lies we have thought is that our worth is conditional.
00:02:22.342 --> 00:02:28.402
It's conditional on our success, conditional on our performance,
00:02:29.182 --> 00:02:31.702
conditional on our relationships.
00:02:33.762 --> 00:02:44.062
But let me remind you, you were worthy before the titles, the achievements, and the accolades.
00:02:45.402 --> 00:02:49.762
You were worthy the moment God breathed life into you.
00:02:50.242 --> 00:02:54.362
And you are still worthy even when you're healing.
00:02:54.882 --> 00:03:03.602
You are still worthy even when you're resting. And you're still worthy even when you're becoming.
00:03:04.982 --> 00:03:10.522
You don't have to hustle for it. You don't have to negotiate for it.
00:03:10.782 --> 00:03:14.642
You simply have to stand in it.
00:03:18.582 --> 00:03:21.682
Now healing isn't about fixing yourself.
00:03:22.602 --> 00:03:26.582
But it's about returning to your true self.
00:03:26.582 --> 00:03:34.102
And wholeness doesn't mean perfection, it means living authentically,
00:03:34.562 --> 00:03:39.622
aligned and anchored in who God called you to be.
00:03:42.062 --> 00:03:48.462
So living boldly in healing looks like speaking up for yourself even when your
00:03:48.462 --> 00:03:54.382
voice shakes, choosing peace even when chaos demands your attention,
00:03:55.042 --> 00:04:01.622
and loving yourself fully even when the parts that are still growing.
00:04:03.562 --> 00:04:06.442
Now healing and wholeness,
00:04:07.709 --> 00:04:14.929
Gives you the freedom to stop negotiating with life. And you stop asking for permission to exist.
00:04:15.369 --> 00:04:17.929
To dream. Or to rise.
00:04:23.509 --> 00:04:31.429
Now. I believe that we all need to guard our worth with grace.
00:04:33.329 --> 00:04:43.189
So as you step forward. I want you to remember that everyone won't understand your healing journey.
00:04:44.969 --> 00:04:48.769
Everyone won't honor your boundaries.
00:04:49.829 --> 00:04:54.709
And everyone won't celebrate your growth. And that's okay.
00:04:55.309 --> 00:05:03.529
That is okay. Why? Because you are not responsible for making your worth acceptable to others.
00:05:04.429 --> 00:05:10.109
You are only responsible for walking in it fully and faithfully.
00:05:10.809 --> 00:05:16.549
The people who are aligned with your growth will recognize your light.
00:05:16.769 --> 00:05:23.529
And the people who can't or won't, they were never assigned to your next season.
00:05:26.629 --> 00:05:31.969
So here's your bold challenge to close out the month of May.
00:05:34.809 --> 00:05:42.389
Affirm your worth out loud. Every morning this week, I want you to declare,
00:05:43.289 --> 00:05:46.289
My worth is not up for negotiation.
00:05:46.429 --> 00:05:52.129
I am rooted, I am rising, and I am enough.
00:05:55.303 --> 00:05:59.343
I want you to release the need for validation.
00:06:00.903 --> 00:06:04.963
You already have God's validation and that's more than enough.
00:06:06.783 --> 00:06:13.363
And this week also I want you to honor your wholeness with one bold act of self-love.
00:06:14.143 --> 00:06:18.943
I mean, again, whether it's saying no, applying for something you taught you
00:06:18.943 --> 00:06:22.563
weren't ready for, or resting without guilt.
00:06:23.023 --> 00:06:25.903
You have to choose yourself.
00:06:26.663 --> 00:06:31.983
Honor your wholeness with one bold act of self-love.
00:06:33.903 --> 00:06:40.243
So as we close out this month, I want you to carry this fruit deep into your spirit.
00:06:41.643 --> 00:06:45.163
Know that you are not your wounds.
00:06:45.683 --> 00:06:52.003
You are not your worries. You are not your weaknesses.
00:06:53.003 --> 00:07:03.883
But you are a masterpiece in progress, rooted in purpose, planted in grace, and rising in power.
00:07:03.883 --> 00:07:14.083
So walk boldly Love yourself fiercely And remember I want you to live boldly
00:07:14.083 --> 00:07:19.743
in your power And if it gets tough Just breathe,
00:07:20.983 --> 00:07:30.783
You still have the strength to rise So until next time dear listeners Keep shining
00:07:30.783 --> 00:07:38.183
Keep rising and keep living in your power.
00:00:01.257 --> 00:00:08.537
