8 - Reclaiming Self-Trust: Letting Go of False Urgency and Learning to Listen Again with Christene Marie

In this honest and restorative solo episode, Christene Marie tackles something so many of us wrestle with: the loss of self-trust in the face of pressure, past pain, or performance.

She unpacks the subtle and not-so-subtle ways urgency, fear, and external validation creep in—and how learning to pause, listen, and respond from truth is a radical act of self-leadership.

You’ll hear:

• What it feels like when you’re no longer grounded in your own inner “yes”

• The cost of making decisions from urgency, trauma, or outside pressure

• Why healing begins when we slow down long enough to hear our own voice again

• The importance of rebuilding integrity with yourself after seasons of burnout or betrayal

• How to stop outsourcing authority and reclaim your capacity to respond with clarity and calm

This is a gentle, powerful invitation to return to your own knowing—not through hustle or performance, but through presence and practice.
