ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Welcome back, valued listeners, to another episode of Living in Your Power. After a brief hiatus, I'm thrilled to reconnect with you. In today's episode, I share personal insights and experiences from the past few months, highlighting the importance of recognizing your worth and valuing yourself.
Life's challenges, including health issues and personal obstacles, required me to step back, rest, and recalibrate. This pause provided an opportunity to reflect on how we live and value ourselves. Today, I emphasize the significance of acknowledging your unique talents, experiences, and perspectives.
We often stay in situations where we feel undervalued due to fear or financial concerns, but it's crucial to remember that you are invaluable. Living authentically begins with recognizing your worth and refusing to settle for less. I encourage you to evaluate your current situation and consider making a change if you aren't truly valued.
Growth happens outside of your comfort zone, and sometimes, unexpected opportunities can lead to immense personal development. Embrace your true power by setting boundaries, exploring new opportunities, and giving yourself the rest you need. Your worth is non-negotiable, and you deserve to be celebrated for who you are.
Thank you for your patience and support. I'm excited to continue this incredible journey with you as we live and grow in our power every day. Stay empowered and always remember: your worth is non-negotiable.
This is Marleen Greenleaf, and I'm excited to be back, journeying with you as we continue to live and grow in our power every day. Continue to live in your power.

TRANSCRIPT 🔗
00:00:00,017 --> 00:00:06,557
Welcome back, my valued listeners, to another episode of Living in Your Power.
2
00:00:06,817 --> 00:00:12,277
I know, I know, it's been a while and I've misconnected with all of you.
3
00:00:12,417 --> 00:00:18,177
I know you've probably been wondering, where have I been since my last episode at the end of January?
4
00:00:18,537 --> 00:00:22,197
And today, I want to share some personal insights with you.
5
00:00:22,757 --> 00:00:28,237
Life has its challenges and in these past months, I've faced my fear share,
6
00:00:28,237 --> 00:00:31,397
both physically and emotionally.
7
00:00:32,177 --> 00:00:37,857
Health issues and personal challenges took me away from this space and I had
8
00:00:37,857 --> 00:00:40,037
to step back and take care of myself.
9
00:00:40,957 --> 00:00:48,437
As much as I wanted to continue sharing, I realized that I needed time to rest, heal and recalibrate.
10
00:00:48,777 --> 00:00:55,317
And that's perfectly okay because sometimes life calls for a pause.
11
00:00:55,877 --> 00:01:01,177
And during that pause, we are given the opportunity to reflect on where we are,
12
00:01:01,297 --> 00:01:06,957
how we're living, and most importantly, how we value ourselves.
13
00:01:07,937 --> 00:01:12,577
This is why today, as I step back into the space,
14
00:01:13,317 --> 00:01:17,997
I want to talk to you about recognizing your value and knowing your worth,
15
00:01:18,117 --> 00:01:24,437
a message that has become even more personal for me over these past few months.
16
00:01:25,117 --> 00:01:30,157
It's easy to find ourselves in situations, whether in our personal lives or
17
00:01:30,157 --> 00:01:35,817
careers, where we don't feel value, where we don't truly feel value.
18
00:01:36,657 --> 00:01:43,097
And if I'm being honest, I have experienced that feeling myself during my time away.
19
00:01:43,957 --> 00:01:49,217
We often stay in these situations longer than we should, not because we want
20
00:01:49,217 --> 00:01:54,357
to, but because Because we fear we're not good enough for something better.
21
00:01:54,977 --> 00:02:00,717
Or maybe we worry about our financial stability. Or we doubt that there's a
22
00:02:00,717 --> 00:02:03,077
space where we'll truly be appreciated.
23
00:02:03,997 --> 00:02:11,677
But here's the thing. I need you to really hear this. You are invaluable.
24
00:02:12,937 --> 00:02:20,957
Your unique talents, experiences, and perspectives are irreplaceable. Thank you.
25
00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:27,440
So staying in a place where you're undervalued, whether that's in a job,
26
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:33,060
a relationship, or even within your own mindset,
27
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:39,880
not only limits your potential, but it also chips away at your self-worth over time.
28
00:02:40,460 --> 00:02:45,040
It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
29
00:02:45,180 --> 00:02:48,900
No matter how hard you try, it just won't fit. it.
30
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:55,320
So recognizing that you are enough and that you deserve more is the first step
31
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,920
to truly living in your power.
32
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,480
I know I've said this time and time again in my various posts,
33
00:03:01,620 --> 00:03:05,680
but this is truly the first step to living in your power.
34
00:03:05,860 --> 00:03:08,980
So stepping out of your comfort zone is scary.
35
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:13,720
We all know that. But it's also where growth happens.
36
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:19,720
It's where you discover opportunities that align more closely with your worth,
37
00:03:19,900 --> 00:03:22,360
your dreams, and your aspirations.
38
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:30,300
And let me tell you from my own experience that growth can come from unexpected places.
39
00:03:30,980 --> 00:03:35,860
This isn't just about finding a better job or a healthier relationship,
40
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,220
although those things are incredibly important.
41
00:03:39,020 --> 00:03:44,420
It's more about living authentically, and embracing your true power.
42
00:03:44,580 --> 00:03:52,280
And that power begins with acknowledging your worth and refusing to settle for anything less.
43
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,720
I encourage you to take a moment today to reflect on your current situation
44
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,660
and ask yourself, am I truly valued here?
45
00:04:03,260 --> 00:04:07,080
Am I being given the opportunity to grow and flourish?
46
00:04:08,528 --> 00:04:12,808
Now, if the answer is no, it might be time to consider a change.
47
00:04:13,168 --> 00:04:20,068
And I know, I know, change is hard, it's uncomfortable, and it often comes with risk.
48
00:04:20,508 --> 00:04:23,868
But believe in yourself and your capabilities.
49
00:04:24,328 --> 00:04:29,148
You deserve to be in a space where you are not just accepted,
50
00:04:29,288 --> 00:04:31,948
but celebrated for who you are.
51
00:04:31,948 --> 00:04:43,928
So let's not let fear or financial concerns dictate our worth. I'll say that again.
52
00:04:44,808 --> 00:04:50,168
Let's not let fear or financial concerns dictate our worth.
53
00:04:50,428 --> 00:04:53,908
You have the power to change your situation.
54
00:04:54,188 --> 00:05:01,408
And sometimes the first step is simply recognizing that you deserve better.
55
00:05:02,148 --> 00:05:08,348
So take that step, whether it's setting new boundaries, exploring new opportunities,
56
00:05:08,488 --> 00:05:12,088
or even just giving yourself the rest you need to reset.
57
00:05:13,148 --> 00:05:16,968
Take that opportunity. You have to take that first step.
58
00:05:17,308 --> 00:05:25,048
Take that first step so that you can live more authentically and live in your power.
59
00:05:25,048 --> 00:05:30,988
I thank you for your patience, for holding space for me, and for allowing me
