In this deeply soulful episode of Don’t Shrink to Fit, host Claudia Noriega Bernstein welcomes Rachel, an author and coach dedicated to helping women master the art of self-love. Rachel shares her journey of moving past the cultural "domestication" that teaches women to be quiet, compliant, and small.Rachel introduces us to her revolutionary concept of "Policies", a softer, more empowering alternative to rigid boundaries, and shares the secret to her famous "slow mornings." Together, Claudia and Rachel dive into the complexities of motherhood (and the choice not to have children), the grief of outgrowing past versions of ourselves, and the radical realization that if something is easy, it might just be your "Zone of Genius."Learn more about Inner-Abundance Coaching by visiting Claudia’s website.Stay connected with Claudia Noriega Bernstein:Follow on Instagram for daily inspiration and insightsConnect with Claudia on LinkedInJoin her community on FacebookWatch her empowering videos on TikTokGrab her best-selling book, Brighter Days, on Amazon🤝 Connect with Rachel:Follow Rachel on InstagramConnect with Rachel on LinkedInJoin her community on Facebook Visit her WebsiteGrab her best-selling book, How to Love Yourself, on AmazonOverwhelmed?
