#15 - Three Simple Practices to Shift From Self-Abandonment to Self-Worth

APR 8, 202511 MIN

Description

You know those moments when you say yes even though every cell in your body whispers no? When you over-explain, shrink yourself, or apologize for simply existing? In this episode, Kena reveals the deeper truth behind those patterns, and why so many midlife women carry a quiet thread of unworthiness without even realizing it.

 Through raw honesty and soulful reflection, she breaks down how cultural conditioning, “good girl” programming, and old survival patterns shape the way you speak, love, and show up in your relationships. 

Kena then guides you through three powerful practices to start rewiring your self-worth.

If you're navigating reinvention, healing, or spiritual awakening in midlife, this episode will help you return to your truth: You are worthy simply because you exist. Period.


✨ In This Episode You’ll Learn

  • How lack of self-worth silently shapes your choices, relationships, and voice.
  • Why “good girl” conditioning keeps you proving, pleasing, and perfecting.
  • What happens when you shift your inner dialogue and stop trashing yourself.
  • How to set micro-boundaries that rebuild your nervous system and self-trust.
  • The truth about becoming the woman who knows her worth without earning it.


🦋 Reflection Questions

  1. Where in your life are you still abandoning yourself to be liked or accepted?
  2. What boundary — even a tiny one — would honor the woman you’re becoming?
  3. If you fully believed you were worthy today, what choice would instantly change?


 I created a mini-coaching session called "How to Stop Feeling Not Good Enough and Reclaim your Worth." It's a bite-sized coaching experience you can complete in about 45 minutes at your own pace to help break free from this cycle and embody your worthiness. Check it out here!
