0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to the Self-Healer Soundboard.
0:08.4	Today's episode we're going to talk about being misunderstood.
0:12.5	The last couple of weeks we've been exploring, connecting with our truth,
0:16.0	speaking and living into our truth, which for a lot of us begins when we go through
0:21.2	a spiritual awakening or connecting to that disconnection between that deeper truth
0:26.9	and how we're living. We also explored a practice of pausing to reflect so that we can center
0:33.2	ourselves or be connected again to what that truth is. So now of course here we are living breathing
0:39.8	our truth into the world and we are met with misunderstanding. So today we're going to dive into

1:26.8	journey, whether it's a healing journey or just a life journey or existence itself, rather than
1:33.0	avoid those things, we can learn to practice accepting them and really expecting them. So much
1:41.3	like failures and challenges that we expect in our lives being misunderstood is 100% in expectation
1:49.5	that we can really all open ourselves up to in an empowering way. I love that and I think
1:54.6	Jenna, that's an amazing place to start. You know why do both of us feel so affirmed that this
2:00.8	is such an inevitable part of our journey and the reason is because truth is so incredibly subjective.
2:09.0	We are all in our minds, our brains, one of its main functions actually is to make meaning of the
2:14.8	world around us. And of course, the meanings that we're making are informed by our past lived
