This episode is about working through the unconscious resistance that is keeping you from fully integrating healing work. Today’s caller, Sara, wants to bring love into her life and feels that she has done so much work. She is wondering why the work isn’t working. If you can relate to doing a lot of work but not seeing the impact or you have a lot of awareness but are not seeing the results, this call will help you to understand it and move forward.

In relationships, the three-month mark is when the honeymoon period starts to wear off. Hormones wear off and old wounding starts to bubble up. This allows us the opportunity to work through it.

Our issues with our parents show up in our relationships, regardless if the issue was with mom or dad. For example, you don’t have to have daddy issues to have relationships with men. If you are a heterosexual woman you could have mommy issues and attract men like mommy. The same goes for men. You could have daddy issues and attract women like daddy. It doesn’t matter the gender or sex of your partner it’s more about the unresolved issue that is causing the wound.

Our safety beliefs set a strong vibrational tone. They unconsciously broadcast that you won’t let anyone in. This also ties into why certain counselors or therapies aren’t working. There is a conscious openness but there can be an unconscious resistance also. It’s that resistance that can stave off the full integration of your healing work.

Healing takes time. Sometimes parts of us aren’t ready to let things go or sometimes the tools have to be upleveled. We have to find different teachers or different tools. When it comes to patterns that have been there since we were young, it takes time. You can’t just go to one retreat or do therapy for a year or one big emotional release and think that you are done. I’m not saying it can’t happen but if it’s not happening, please don’t beat yourself up.

I empathize with being a black sheep of the family. Maybe your truest self wasn’t nurtured. If you focus on finding your voice and your power and let go of finding a man not only will you eventually find a man who is more aligned with you but you also find a like-minded community and tribe where you don’t feel like the black sheep.
