  • Unleash Your Inhibitions!
    Sep 23 2025

    Join Marqui, Ednesha, and Kim as they discuss slowing down and really pay attention to the noise...the voices inside our heads, the whispers of our inner critic, the opinions of friends and family, and even the subtle messages society repeats to us about who we should be.


    Sometimes those voices come from a place of love and protection, but often they leave us second-guessing our own truth. We begin to wonder: Am I good enough? Am I ready? Is this dream even mine—or just someone else’s expectation of me?


    When we stop to ask, what’s really holding me back? we uncover more than fear, we uncover the old stories we’ve been carrying, the doubts that no longer serve us, and the patterns that keep us stuck. The truth is, completion and change rarely arrive wrapped in comfort. They demand courage, honesty, and a willingness to step into the unknown. But on the other side of that discomfort is freedom—the freedom to choose yourself, to honor your joy, and to finally step into the life you’ve been imagining.


    Takeaways

    • Change is essential for growth, but it can be uncomfortable.
    • Astrology can provide insights into personal challenges and strengths.
    • Vulnerability is a source of power, not weakness.
    • It's important to stop apologizing for being your true self.
    • Embracing joy can lead to a more fulfilling life.
    • Self-care and personal growth are ongoing journeys.
    • The fear of being seen can hold us back from our greatness.
    • Life is too short to hold yourself hostage from your potential.
