Episode 13: Living Your Truth Out Loud: From Healing to Embodiment
Welcome, Sacred Disruptor.
The world taught you to shrink.
To silence yourself.
To play it safe.
This is where you unlearn all of that.
This is where you stop believing in your power and start being your power.
🔥 From Knowing to Embodying
It’s one thing to journal about alignment.
It’s another to speak your truth in a room wired for your silence.
It’s easy to write affirmations.
It’s sacred—and terrifying—to live them when your nervous system remembers the moments you were punished for standing out.
"Embodied sovereignty isn’t theory.
It’s the congruence between your values, your voice, and your body."
🧠 Why We Fear Living It Out Loud
If you’re scared to take up space, it’s not because you’re weak.
It’s because your body remembers:
The times you spoke up and got punished.
The moments you stood out and got abandoned.
The conditioning that told you it was safer to comply.
But hear this:
You were never too much.
You were just in places too small for your truth.
And now? It’s your responsibility—not your shame—to choose differently.
🌀 The Out Loud Activation Practice
(You can guide this in real time or adapt it for a blog/guide.)
Find a quiet moment. Close your eyes or soften your gaze.
Bring your awareness inward, as if closing all the external “windows” of your senses.
Center yourself in your heart space.
Bring to mind one area where you’ve been silencing yourself.
Without judgment, ask:
"What would it feel like to speak this truth out loud?"
"What would it feel like to move from this place of knowing?"
Breathe in your truth. Breathe out your fear.
Speak this aloud (or silently):
"I choose to speak from alignment.
I choose to move from truth.
I embody the version of me who already knows."
Let that land.
One choice.
One word.
One move.
That’s how embodiment begins.
💬 Personal Story: The Moment I Stopped Shrinking
For years, I watered down my truth.
Made myself digestible.
Played small because I thought that was how to be safe—and liked.
It wasn’t until I dropped the mask, let myself be fully seen—edge, softness, spirituality, rage and all—that the right people came.
The right opportunities aligned.
And most importantly, I felt like me again.
Healing isn’t complete when you believe you’re worthy.
Healing deepens when you live like you are.
🗝️ This Week’s Reflection
Ask yourself:
Where am I still dimming my light for comfort?
Where am I still choosing silence over sovereignty?
Then take one bold action:
Speak it.
Choose it.
Change it.
Even if your voice shakes.
Even if it terrifies you.
I see the Light in you, and it is brilliant. I want you to see it too!
Brightest of blessings,
Dawn xo
