479: The Power of Energetic Cord Cutting

MICHELLE CHALFANT
About this episode

Today, I’m diving into the powerful practice of cord cutting - a simple but transformative way to release old ties and reclaim your own energy.

We create energetic cords with everyone we interact with, from loved ones to strangers. These connections can weigh us down with resentment, heartbreak, and even other people’s emotions. Cord cutting isn’t about ending relationships. It’s about keeping your energy field clean, clear, and truly your own.

In this episode, I share:

  • What energetic cords are and how they affect us

  • Why cutting cords doesn’t mean cutting people out of your life

  • Simple, practical ways to cut cords through visualization and intention

  • How cord cutting frees us from resentment, trauma, and unhealthy dynamics

This isn’t just about feeling lighter. It’s about stepping into your own power, creating space for peace, and opening the door to healthier, more fulfilling connections.
