In this transformative episode of BUILD, I sit down with the renowned author and spiritual mentor, Sheleana Aiyana, for an incredibly deep and personal conversation. Together, we explore the profound themes of healing, relationships, and the intricate dynamics between the masculine and feminine energies.
What We Cover:
- The Hidden Depths of Relationships: Discover how adult romantic relationships often become a mirror for unresolved childhood wounds. Aiyana unpacks why we unconsciously seek closure from our past through our present relationships and what it truly means to heal these patterns.
- Navigating Triggers and Trauma: Aiyana shares her wisdom on understanding trauma, whether it's from childhood, past relationships, or the subconscious, and how it affects how we show up in love. Stephen opens up about his own struggles with abandonment wounds, making this conversation both relatable and revelatory for anyone working through similar experiences.
- Attachment Styles and Their Impact: The duo discusses the powerful interplay of attachment styles in relationships—how anxious and avoidant dynamics play out and what strategies can be used to navigate these challenges. If you’ve ever found yourself in a "hailstorm and turtle" scenario in your relationship, this is the conversation you need to hear.
- Healing is a Lifelong Journey: Aiyana reminds us that healing is an ongoing process. She shares her personal insights into how the journey can feel like navigating different seasons, with moments of darkness and light, and how to maintain hope and connection through it all.
- Practical Tools for Inner Work: Aiyana doesn't just offer philosophical insights; she also provides practical tools to help listeners on their healing journey, from inner child meditations to using nature as a grounding force for deep emotional work.
Whether you're seeking tools to improve your relationship or working through your own healing process, this conversation will leave you with a renewed sense of hope and clarity.
