Healing the Urge to Prove: A Shift to Self-Permission | Rhiah Kujat
Welcome to the Say YES to Yourself! Podcast—the show for midlife women, empty nesters, and those navigating major life transitions like divorce, reinvention, and rediscovery. If you're ready to shed old roles and finally put yourself first, you're in the right place.
In this episode, Wendy sits down with author Rhiah Kujat for a heartfelt conversation on releasing the need to prove and learning how to live from self-permission instead.
They explore:
- How the urge to “do more” disconnects us from our inner knowing, and how to return to presence through self-permission
- How slowing down can unlock deeper self-trust, peace, and presence
- What it looks like to live from your own permission instead of external validation
This conversation is a powerful reminder that you don’t have to earn your worth—you just have to remember it. Say YES to a life that feels like you.
