When I’m having conversations with other people, some common questions I hear are things like: “How do I get my spouse, parents, or in-laws on board with this work? How do I save my marriage when I feel so distant from the people I love?”
Believe me, I have been there – I GET it.
The truth is, though, healing begins with you. Individual healing is collective healing!
In today’s episode, I’m talking about why you need to stop carrying everyone else’s healing and do the work for you first. I personally had to learn the hard way that you can’t step into doing the inner work and healing for other people. If you try, it’s not going to unfold the way you hoped!
You’re not meant to carry everyone else’s healing on your back. As you’re working through your own “stuff”, you become a steady presence for those around you. It shows others what’s possible, and gives them permission to explore their own healing!
When you choose to do the work for you first, you’ll find that good movement always draws more good movement.
If you’re ready to dip your toe into this work, the doors to the Good Movement Collective are open TODAY. I’d love to welcome you in and walk with you on this journey, friend!

- Why it’s vital that your own healing comes first
- Why you’re NOT responsible for carrying everyone else’s inner work
- What it really looks like to begin healing yourself first
- How the Good Movement Collective can support you on this journey

More about the Good Movement Draws Good Movement podcast:
In stockmanship (the art and science of handling cattle in a safe, effective, low-stress manner), we have this phrase . . . good movement draws good movement.
It’s this thing that happens when we ask a small group of cattle, maybe a cow, or a pair to move out in a certain direction and their movement draws the whole herd into moving in the same direction.
Good movement happens when we approach the cattle with a positive attitude, read and really listen to what they’re telling us, and communicate accordingly.
We don’t approach the aware, flighty cattle the same as we do the tame, docile cattle. We adjust ourselves, our energy, and approach, and communicate with each differently.
These adjustments help us effectively draw good movement from each, which then draws good movement from the herd. But it starts with us.
The same is true for humans. Good movement starts with us.
Welcome to Good Movement Draws Good Movement, the podcast where farmers, ranchers, and rural folks can grow relationally through awareness, understanding, and effective communication.
Hey, it’s me – T. I’m your host, and I, along with my guests, will be covering topics related to drawing good movement – things like self and social awareness, brain science, positive psychology, extending grace, and so much more.
We’ll share tools that can help you understand why you are the way you are, why others are the way they are, and how you can use that to step out of self-told lies with grace and compassion to draw good movement in conversations, relationships, and life in rural America.
Tune in every Tuesday and make sure to hit subscribe so you never miss an episode! Let’s go draw good movement!
