Today on Feminine Roadmap Gina’s guest, Dr. Rana Al-Falaki is calling all women who want to do and be more. Dr. Rana believes we spend our lives wanting and forget to actually be. Our distractions become massive and we put everyone before our selves so we forget who we are and what our dreams are. She wants women who want to do and be more to know it is possible to achieve and resonate on a higher level. One of the key elements of doing and being more is to retain our energy by being the same in every situation, no longer changing ourselves to suit others. The immense value of knowing who we are and what we believe about ourselves and our world is the foundation of us doing and being more of who we truly are. Dr. Rana shares strategies to overcome powerlessness and anger and shift into gratitude and acceptance. Armed with the knowledge that whatever we tell ourselves triggers our feelings so in order to do and be more we must also shift our inner dialogue, let go of attachments and allow ourselves to be guided. As women we empower ourselves to do and be more as we recognize we have a choice, we don’t have to remain stuck and by releasing our attachments as can move forward.
