This week’s episode is about the inner child. We simply cannot achieve that deep, genuine self love without incorporating our inner child. Special guest, Mercedes Otano, shares with us what the inner child is and why it’s so important to connect with them every day.

Mercedes is a psychic medium, spirit led life coach, shamanic healer, and inner child specialist. She helps her clients move through the wounded inner child so they’re able to reclaim the love they were born with for themselves.

“When we’re learning to reaccess our truth, it's reconnecting with the part of our inner child that needs to be celebrated and still has that innocence and still has that joy. It’s our truth.” [4:40] – Mercedes Otano

“If we don't nurture our inner child, we could never be in the space of fully loving all of ourselves.”  [9:50] – Mercedes Otano

“We’re so conditioned to think that love needs to come from outside of us when we don't even realize we are love incarnate…when we can reaccess this energy, we can understand that the love we are seeking, the praise, the validation, the everything we are seeking, it already lives within us. I don't think you can fully love yourself without accessing this part.” [12:57] – Mercedes Otano

“Remembrance is remembering you don't have to fall victim to your experience. You get to heal it. You get to understand it. You get to move through it. You get to validate her [the inner child] so you can choose the consciousness that's going to empower you.” [19:21] – Mercedes Otano

“It becomes an unpopular opinion to say the inner child is connected to your sexual energy but if you think about it, when i connect to my inner child, I feel joy, pleasure. Sexual energy doesnt need to be this dark thing…all it is is pleasure and I deserve to feel pleasure.” [21:30] – Mercedes Otano

“Surrendering to the experience is probably one of the biggest acts of self love we can give ourselves…I don't need to control this. I just need to allow this and I get to learn from it.” [25:45] – Mercedes Otano
