Unknown:

Hello, and welcome to the Warriors experience. I'm

Unknown:

your host Aurora. And I'm so happy to be spending some time

Unknown:

with you today. It's just going to be 10 minutes, 15 minutes,

Unknown:

maybe a little longer. But it's time where you can just focus in

Unknown:

on yourself and relax. disconnect from a busy life. I

Unknown:

really like that new little entry years. So I'm really

Unknown:

excited to post this episode. I hope you like it too, by the

Unknown:

way. So yeah, the other day I was talking about playfulness

Unknown:

and how you should try out new things that excites you, or

Unknown:

where you know, you're going to fail. But eventually we'll get

Unknown:

better at it and learn. I just went skiing today on like

Unknown:

backcountry skis. And it's a very weird new thing to try out

Unknown:

because I'm only alpine skiing otherwise. And I fell pretty

Unknown:

hard and hurt myself pretty badly. But in the end, I can

Unknown:

just, yeah, laugh about it and be excited to try it again and

Unknown:

know that Yeah, I might get hurt. But I'm going to do it

Unknown:

differently next time. So, so much to trying out new things,

Unknown:

and really being playful and stuff. Today, I want to talk

Unknown:

about your truth. Yes. Do you live your truth? Do you speak

Unknown:

your truth? Do you live an honest life? I think that's a

Unknown:

very uncomfortable topic to talk about for some. And for others.

Unknown:

It's very inspiring, energizing and mind opening. So I will try

Unknown:

and talk to both today. What is your truth? And how honest Can

Unknown:

you be with the people around you? especially if you live in a

Unknown:

committed relationship? monogamous, committed

Unknown:

relationship? If you live with roommates, or if you are in

Unknown:

really good contact with your family? How about your friends?

Unknown:

How much do they know about you? And how truthful Can you be with

Unknown:

them? It is hardest, I think to have these conversations where

Unknown:

you know, you're gonna speak your truth. And the person who's

Unknown:

listening, the person who's sending a sorry, sitting in

Unknown:

front of you might not receive it well might not accept you

Unknown:

respect to. After you spoke your truth, they might see you

Unknown:

differently. A relationship might change after you spoke

Unknown:

your truth out. But what can we do about it? Should we just

Unknown:

suppress our truth and try and figure it out on our own? I

Unknown:

don't know. Some people have to some people are way too scared

Unknown:

to open up and share the truth is a lot of cases out there of

Unknown:

people who are craving a same sex relationship and they just

Unknown:

can't make that leap because they are still too scared of

Unknown:

what the judgment of others is going to feel like and the sharp

Unknown:

opinions of society. So they decide to live in a closet and

Unknown:

not come out. And is that good for their soul and for their

Unknown:

health? Not only mental health, but physical health? Of course

Unknown:

not. But they still see the price is too high to come out.

Unknown:

And they prefer to keep it a secret what they're desiring.

Unknown:

What if you are in a partnership where you all of a sudden don't

Unknown:

know if you want to have kits? You get along so well. You both

Unknown:

have jobs, you're happy together. And initially when he

Unknown:

met he talked about having kids but now you changed your mind.

Unknown:

What about these big topics? What if we don't talk about

Unknown:

them? And what if we talk about them? I think the most Important

Unknown:

thing I learned is that you have to talk about it. And you have

Unknown:

to stick to your guns.

Unknown:

And you also have to communicate it in a way that the person

Unknown:

really understands and sees you and maybe can see how hard it is

Unknown:

for you to talk about it. And at the same time, being very

Unknown:

vulnerable, I think it's very important to also know exactly

Unknown:

where you stand, and then stick to it. Because a lot of people,

Unknown:

when they hear something they don't want to hear, they're

Unknown:

gonna distract away from the topic, maybe, or they will

Unknown:

attack you, or they will be defensive about it. Have a

Unknown:

strong reaction. And sometimes we don't expect that. But if you

Unknown:

can anticipate it, and know, okay, there might be a strong

Unknown:

reaction coming up from the other part. But I know what I

Unknown:

want, I know what is best for me, I know what brings me joy.

Unknown:

And I will not move away. Step away from that path I'm on, or

Unknown:

different direction I want to take on. So let's take your

Unknown:

parents, maybe your parents see working in a specific job, maybe

Unknown:

your dad has a company. And ever since you little he can see you

Unknown:

working in that company. But ever since you're little, you

Unknown:

can see that he doesn't really support your artistic side, he

Unknown:

doesn't really understand that becoming a movie director is one

Unknown:

of your biggest dreams and would make you feel so fulfilled and

Unknown:

awesome. So what do you do about that? Do you have to submit to

Unknown:

your parents wishes? Or can you go out there and live your truth

Unknown:

and be proud of yourself at the same time, and not wait for

Unknown:

them? To give you approval, or to be proud of you that will

Unknown:

come eventually that will come as soon as they see that you're

Unknown:

happy, and really shining out there. But you can wait for it.

Unknown:

Because people sometimes can't give you that approval because

Unknown:

they didn't receive it. And what you're trying to do out there is

Unknown:

so far off that they just can't give that thing to you. And I

Unknown:

said that before when it came to approval? How is evolution

Unknown:

possible if you don't step out of the box of your family? A

Unknown:

couple people out there I know are born into families where

Unknown:

they have to make that first step into a new world.

Unknown:

Otherwise, it's just going to be a continuous circle of a good

Unknown:

little mediocre life, that this person was not born to live,

Unknown:

that person has to break out and risk to maybe be rejected for a

Unknown:

certain time. But trust that it's only going to be for a

Unknown:

certain time and those people will turn around if they truly

Unknown:

love you and see your happiness, and that you're living your

Unknown:

truth. It is really so inspiring. When you see someone

Unknown:

and their flow, when you see someone speaking their truth,

Unknown:

and that's something that is so admirable, someone who knows how

Unknown:

to set boundaries and knows how to say yes, but also to say no.

Unknown:

So what I want you to do today or maybe over the next couple of

Unknown:

days is reflect reflecting about your relationship. And how

Unknown:

truthful Can you be with those people around you? How do they

Unknown:

react when you speak your truth? And can you speak your truth in

Unknown:

a kind way, in a very confident way so that the other doesn't

Unknown:

feel attacked or rejected. Of course if you're in a committed

Unknown:

relationship, mana gammas What's your guy's style so far, and now

Unknown:

all of a sudden, you feel like Oh shit, I want to be with

Unknown:

different people, I still love that one person. But I also want

Unknown:

to be with different people. That's a very scary conversation

Unknown:

to have, because you guys might not be on the same page. But can

Unknown:

you trust that there's a way to be truthful, but still

Unknown:

respectful with the other person? And yeah, maybe it means

Unknown:

that you guys have to break up and you have to find someone who

Unknown:

is okay with open relationships. But you can't just go out there

Unknown:

and start cheating and start living a double life that's

Unknown:

gonna hurt your soul and your health way more than if you

Unknown:

decide to have that very deep and honest conversation. I feel

Unknown:

a lot of times when you talk with people who went through a

Unknown:

divorce, you can also see there that communication was not

Unknown:

always open and honest. Like the guy who is the provider and does

Unknown:

all the money making work. And instead of talking to his wife,

Unknown:

his partner, and telling her that he's overwhelmed, and that

Unknown:

he needs support and all that jazz, you know, if she truly

Unknown:

loves them, then they're going to find a way that he feels more

Unknown:

supported. But if he decides to start drinking, instead smoking,

Unknown:

going out to the bars, maybe committing adultery, having sex

Unknown:

with others, that it's not going to make it better, it's going to

Unknown:

temporarily make him feel better, and make him feel

Unknown:

supported and understood. And help him to cope with that

Unknown:

stress.

Unknown:

But long term, it's totally going to ruin himself and the

Unknown:

relationship. So I think if we learn to, from the start, be so

Unknown:

honest, and also realistic about what we need and want. There'd

Unknown:

be less breakups, less divorces out there.

Unknown:

Yeah.

Unknown:

I think that's it. That's my message for today. You can't be

Unknown:

radically truthful. from one day to the other if you see yourself

Unknown:

now living a lie or not being completely honest. But you can

Unknown:

slowly steer your steering wheel into that direction and start

Unknown:

being more honest, more transparent with people. And you

Unknown:

will see it will change your relationship in such a beautiful

Unknown:

way. They will be able to relate with you on a deeper level. All

Unknown:

the people who don't like your truth are gonna fade out and

Unknown:

move away and that's okay too, because you're gonna attract new

Unknown:

people into your life that are more in alignment with

Unknown:

you. So

Unknown:

now, I want to thank you for listening to this. I hope it was

Unknown:

not too much of a swallow bitter pill to swallow. I will heal my

Unknown:

wounds now from my little accident today. take really good

Unknown:

care of yourself. If you want to connect with me, and then

Unknown:

Instagram, the Borealis experience or on Facebook,

Unknown:

Aurora Eggert and yeah, I'll be out there tomorrow again. Thanks

Unknown:

for letting me be very raw, genuine and truthful here. I

Unknown:

never have to put on a smiley face, or happy face. I enjoy

Unknown:

that deeply. The way
