What Power Really Means (and What It Doesn’t)

Welcome to the season 3 of Awaken Your Power. In a world that rewards fitting in and staying small, what does it really mean to step into your power? In this solo opening, I dig into the myths and misunderstandings about power that keep so many of us from living fully. Is power the same as control? Does it always corrupt? Is it just for a chosen few? Together, we’ll explore a very different kind of power—one rooted in agency, awareness, and alignment with our deepest values. This episode is both personal and cultural: it’s about reclaiming your own voice, and it’s about what happens when more of us rise up and bring that voice into the world. What You’ll Learn in This Episode Why control and power are not the same thing—and how mistaking them keeps us small. The damaging cultural myths about power (like “power corrupts” and “it’s a zero-sum game”). How “fitting in” differs from true belonging, and why that difference matters for your authenticity. Why humility has been weaponized against women—and how to step beyond it. The kind of power that nurtures wisdom, resilience, and alignment, both in your life and in our world.
