with Celinne Da Costa

DISCLAIMER:
To honor my integration and create space for meaningful shifts to occur, this session was recorded on August 4, 2023 and is being released now.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO TRULY LOVE OURSELVES?
And, how does that impact our ability to have fulfilling relationships with others?
In my latest podcast episode, I am releasing a private session that I had with my soul sister and life coach Leighann Amanda, where we explore how these tender topics have played out in my love life.
Our conversation gets vulnerably honest as we examine the ways high-achieving women can lose themselves in relationships. Even when we feel empowered in our work, there can still be unconscious patterns of compromising our needs for a romantic partner… something I did repeatedly in the past
Leighann guides me through a soul-stirring coaching session, helping uncover my core wounds and limiting beliefs around love. It’s a powerful reminder that we all carry pain around feeling “unlovable” at some point in our lives.
Healing this starts with learning to love ourselves unconditionally – a practice that I’ve been dedicated to in my 1 year and 9 months of being in celibacy, and have continued to deepen since my session.
The good news is – since recording this session, I opened myself up to men again and have been deeply enjoying dating and relating! I look forward to updating you on my progress in the next few months…
EPISODE INSIGHTS:
- The seductive trap of relying on others to fill our need for love, versus cultivating self-love
- How the theme of “losing myself in relationships” shows up even for successful women
- Getting to the root of control patterns and fear of disappointment
- Exploring the childhood experiences that shape beliefs around love
- Realizing when the cost of love is too high
HIGHLIGHT QUOTES
We are more easily swept off our feet when someone chooses us without us putting them through the filter we would usually put someone through to see if we want to choose them.
Leighann Amanda
Powerful women deserve love.

What pained me the most was the level at which I compromised and completely lost myself in love.
Celinne Da Costa
If we weren’t necessarily taught to cultivate self-chosening, then being chosen is really, really seductive.
Leighann Amanda
No one goes their whole life believing they are lovable all the time.
Leighann Amanda
One of my decisions was I am going to learn how to love myself. Learn how to be kinder and in the right relationship with myself.
Celinne Da Costa
She was getting the love that she wasn’t giving herself.

My intention in sharing this with you today is to open up this important conversation – because there are so many of us out there having similar experiences when it comes to matters of the heart. If this resonates with you, know that you’re not alone. I see you and I feel you.
Sisters and brothers – let’s walk this path together and support each other to overcome the insecurities, the limiting beliefs, and any part of life that is holding us back from the beautiful, emotionally sober relationships in love that we desire and deserve.
Stay tuned for Part 2 of this episode which releases next week, where our journey continues and more breakthroughs unlock.
You won’t want to miss the powerful conclusion.
