We talk about finding God, why women struggle to feel worthy (I think we all know why...ahem...cough...patriarchy) and how we can join our sisters to fight systematic oppression.Also? Intersectionality, fear and doubt, the pitfalls of the self-help industry…the good stuff just keeps coming!  Listen in and let Thais' wisdom fill you with hope and strength and so much resilience. Because remember...YOU are a powerful creature.Listen in to hear Thais and I talk about:•Why Thais felt drawn to coach women and our unique psychological needs.  •The first time Thais prayed to God and the response she got.•How our wounds, traumas, addictions, etc can be our greatest source of power.•A candid conversation about binge eating, and the pivotal moments that allow us to heal.  •Why forcing 'readiness' rarely works.•The worthiness wound and the innate sense of not belonging.•Spiritual practices and habits we use to build up our inner worth.•Dismantling the systems that oppress us from within.Meet Thais Sky: Two parts sass, one part straight up truth talk. Thais is an international speaker, writer, women’s leadership coach and feminist on a heart-led mission to support the seekers, the visionaries, and the "why the heck do I feel so broken” of the world reclaim their worthiness by learning how to explore, trust and express themselves unapologetically.
