About this episode

#241: Healing and “doing the work” have been hot topics for years — but what does doing the work truly mean? And how do we know when we’ve healed?

In today’s episode, I’m welcoming self-healing expert and mental wellness advocate, Yasmine Cheyenne back to the show for a deep dive on how to identify what serves you best and understanding how relationships shape our healing journey.

Whether you're seeking clarity in your romantic partnerships, friendships, or family, Yasmine offers wisdom on balancing meaningful connections with self-care and joy.

  • What inspired her new book “Wisdom to Path: The Beautiful and Bumpy Ride to Healing and Trusting Our Inner Guide”
  • Establishing healthy relationships while focusing on yourself
  • Overcoming people pleasing and honoring your feelings
  • Setting boundaries and accepting change in relationships
  • Advice on prioritizing your wants, needs, and goals
