Episode 002: The Root with Erica Hawthorne-Manon
What’s at the root?
Of perfectionism.
Not-enoughness.
And the need for external approval.
What would happen if you surrendered?
In today’s episode, I invite my hilarious friend & artist (and my first guest!) Erica Hawthorne-Manon, to share her healing journey and how she got to the root of her hustle & burnout. We dive into what really leads us to a place of burnout, the importance of healing in community, and the bank of Benevolence. Yes you heard that right! Bank of Benevolence. Erica dropped some gems.
We dive into:
Erica’s healing journey, how burnout touched her experience & what got her ass to sit down!
Making pivotal shifts during Covid, and beyond
Tough love - does it work?
Why I celebrated when Erica cried with me for the first time
Cultural conditioning around perfectionism - and releasing yourself from it
And so much more
