Stephanie Canavesio: The Journey to Authentic Self-Love | The Edit Alaverdyan Podcast #47

Send us a textTruth-telling might be one of the most radical acts of self-love we can practice, yet many of us struggle to speak authentically even to those closest to us. This transformative conversation with Stephanie Canavesio explores why we get trapped in people-pleasing patterns and how our bodies eventually rebel when we betray our authentic selves.Stephanie shares her powerful journey from addiction and disconnection to wholeness, revealing how her own breakdown became the breakthrough that allowed her to finally honor her truth. She explains that our physical symptoms—whether back pain, exhaustion, or illness—are messages from our body saying "no" to situations that no longer serve us. Through guided practices, she demonstrates how we can pause, breathe, and listen to these sensations with curiosity rather than judgment.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as we explore how relationships mirror our emotional wounding, creating perfect opportunities for growth if we're willing to turn inward rather than blame others. Stephanie shares a deeply vulnerable moment when speaking her truth almost ended her marriage—but instead transformed it into something far more authentic and fulfilling. This becomes a powerful reminder that the people who truly love us will celebrate our authentic selves, not the carefully crafted versions we present to gain approval.Perhaps most moving is the exploration of inner child work as a gateway to self-connection. Through a beautiful guided exercise, Stephanie demonstrates how visualizing and nurturing our five-year-old self can reveal what we truly need beyond the noise of societal expectations. The episode concludes with a profound insight: the most important person you need to impress isn't your boss, partner, or friends—it's your inner child who's been waiting for your attention all along.Support the show
