Empowering Women: Setting High Standards and Nurturing Self-Care
This podcast episode delivers a powerful message to women about recognizing their worth, setting high standards, and nurturing self-care. Maurice Harker, Director of Life Changing Services, emphasizes that women should not compromise on their boundaries and self-respect, emphasizing the importance of maintaining personal standards.
The episode discusses the advantage that women in pioneer days had, where they had time to clear their heads and evaluate their interactions with potential partners. Modern technology often accelerates the process, but Maurice encourages women to take a step back and give themselves time and space to decompress and reflect.
The episode introduces the "Christ Cycle," a psychological process involving attempts to engage, setbacks, decompression, reluctance, and return. This cycle is portrayed as a path of resilience and growth, highlighting the importance of perseverance in relationships.
Maurice also underscores the significance of having a clear vision of one's emotional "greenhouse" and returning to it after setbacks. Self-care is presented as a means to empower women to continue giving and thriving, rather than being a selfish act.
In closing, Maurice expresses gratitude for the courage and resilience of women who are willing to seek and expect miracles in their relationships, emphasizing that the principles shared are based on eternal truths.
