Stop Giving Your Power Away, The Secret to Living an Empowered Life
Today, I am sharing this incredibly eye-opening conversation with Sowjanya Shetty, founder of @AttitudeMakeover about something we all experience: power. Not just the power we see in boardrooms or political arenas, but the very personal, often elusive sense of power within ourselves.Many of us feel a deep sense of powerlessness in our families, careers, and even on our spiritual paths. We struggle with self-empowerment, often fearing that if we step into our own strength, we might overstep or even overpower those around us. But what if our understanding of power is fundamentally flawed? What if true power comes from a deeper, more spiritual place and can be embodied in a way that elevates everyone?In this powerful discussion, Sowjanya shares her incredible 25-year diverse experience and explains how perception shapes reality, and understanding can change everything. She shares her personal journey, starting with losing her dad at three years old and growing up in adversity. This early experience made her an observer of power, always seeing it outside herself. You'll hear about the first time she felt powerful by selling her notes at 15-17, realizing "it's all within you".Learn why Sowjanya believes her observations of missing links in the professional world and people's mindsets compelled her to help others build themselves in their personal journey. We dive into practical ways to tap into this inner strength, especially when feeling a lack of control. Sowjanya offers simple, actionable steps to start reclaiming that power, even through small "nudges" from your own mindset and by changing the language you use to yourself.We also tackle the crucial distinction between "power over" others (which can lead to manipulation) and the "power within" to create and influence positively. Sowjanya emphasizes understanding the three "Ps": Power (choice), People (always part of it), and the Politics of power (the system you navigate). You'll discover why being oblivious to "politics" can actually mean giving your power away. This conversation is a must-watch if you've ever felt stuck or like you're giving your power away.Comment below: What's one area in your life where you feel you've given your power away, and what's the first baby step you'll take to reclaim it?For more insights from Sowjanya Shetty and Attitude Makeover, check out: Website: https://attitudemakeover.com/ YouTube Channels: Attitude Makeover, Instagram: @attitudemakeover LinkedIn: Sowjanya Shetty's00:00 Intro Podcast Teaser02:10 Podcast Starts03:22 Guest Introduction: Sowjanya Shetty05:14 Sowjanya's Personal Journey with Power10:29 The Power of Inner Architecture16:07 Practical Steps to Reclaim Power33:51 The Role of Community and Tribe43:40 Understanding the Blueprint44:24 The Journey of Spirituality46:58 Navigating Adversity49:07 The Conflict of Identity52:15 Reengineering Yourself01:00:43 The Importance of Scaffolding01:05:11 Embracing Change01:18:01 The Role of Politics in Change01:24:01 Conclusion#InnerPower, #SelfEmpowerment, #ReclaimYourPower, #PersonalGrowth, #MindsetShift, #AttitudeMakeover, #SowjanyaShetty, #PowerWithin, #Empowerment, #LifeTransformation, #AuthenticPower, #SpiritualJourney, #PersonalDevelopment, #Motivation, #Inspiration, #HiddenStrength, #ChangeYourLife, #SuccessMindset, #HealingJourney, #SelfDiscovery, #SpiritualAwakening, #ConsciousLiving, #GrowthMindset, #NewBeginnings, #InfluencePositiveInner Power, Self Empowerment, Reclaim Your Power, Personal Growth, Mindset Shift, Attitude Makeover, Sowjanya Shetty, Power Within, Empowerment, Living Empowered, Personal Development, Spiritual Journey, True Power, Lack of Control, Giving Power Away, Power Over Others, Power to Create, Politics of Power, Personal Change, Self Sabotage, Inner Strength, Life Transformation, Overcoming Adversity, Mental Fitness, Emotional Triggers
