Unknown: You are listening to
the limitless podcast. I'm your

host. Deanna Herron, what if you
had no limitations keeping you

from your dream life in 2016 I
had a major tug on my heart to

write a book about my story, and
in the process, I learned that I

had been operating with a very
faulty belief system for the

majority of my life. I've had a
huge transformation since then,

and my life's passion and
mission is to teach you how to

live a limitless life. Join me
on this journey. Let's get

started. Hello and welcome back
to the limitless podcast. This

is Deanna hearin. This is part
two of the unlock the keys to a

better marriage series. In this
part, I will be talking about my

seven keys to freedom. Not only
will these seven keys to freedom

help you with resentment,
they'll help you reclaim your

power. And when you reclaim
power in one relationship in

your life, it transfers to every
relationship. So let's begin.

All right, so here's my proven
success for our healing, and

this is something that I use on
my clients, regardless of if

it's marriage business, whatever
it is, but my proven process is

to heal your stories. When you
heal your stories, you take your

power back, and this is my
favorite part. And once you take

your power back, you actually
experience freedom. And like

I've said a bazillion times, and
I'm going to continue to say,

this process will transfer into
every area of your life. So here

are the seven steps to freedom.
Anybody want freedom in their

life? Yeah, we all want a little
bit of freedom. The first step

in my process is recognizing the
truth behind your union. So when

it comes to marriage,
recognizing that you two are

here to heal each other, and
it's basically your awakening

and your awakening to Okay, so
there's more to we're just here

to live happily ever after, and
he's supposed to meet my needs

and carry me off on the white
horse. It's awakening to the

truth of I am here to heal, and
he is here to heal the stories

of lack and limitation.
Together, you are to help each

other. And like I said, it's not
by pointing out the wrongs in

him, although that's so inviting
sometimes, right? Not pointing

out the wrongs of each other.
But it's by recognizing that

your triggers are here to teach
you something. Your triggers are

here to teach you something.
Your triggers have a hidden

message about the stories, about
the false narratives, and about

what you're believing about
yourself, your triggers are

keeping you in the state of
victimhood of circumstances. Why

did he say that to me? Huh? Why
does he always treat me that

way? Right? So we become victim
of our circumstances, and you

guys, I don't know if you you
experience this when you have an

argument with your spouse or an
argument with your partner or an

argument with your parents, but
it's that swirling of thoughts

that plays around in your head
for days and sometimes weeks and

sometimes months. It's very
hurtful and it's very painful,

but your triggers are actually
keeping you in that state of

victimhood from your
circumstances. And what I teach

is we have to separate from the
circumstance and deal with the

story that's within us, or you
will always be a victim of the

world, a victim of
circumstances. So we have to

look at the circumstance,
separate from it. Okay, what's

the story? What's this meaning
about me? And our goal is to

take our power back, to really
take our power back. Number two

of my seven steps is to release
resentment, and that's what

we're going to talk about
tonight. We're going to talk

about resentment, and this is
what I'm going to coach through

on the resentment. Number three
is to recognize the pattern

that's playing out in all areas
of your life. These are called

blind spots. These are blind
spots our stories. And in this

particular stage, we do a
pattern interrupt. So in order

to change the story, to change
the pattern, we have to

interrupt the pattern. And I do
that in a very unique way.

Number four is rewrite the story
to your truth. Because remember,

you are limitless, boundless,
with limitless possibilities,

infinite, infinite. So rewrite
the story. Number five is

release stuck emotional energy.
And I'm going to tell you, this

is what makes me a little bit
different in what I do is

because a lot of people do a lot
of mind work, and you can't just

do mind work without, without
actually healing the emotions

that we have stuck in our body.
Those emotions, when they are

not expressed, they get stuck.
They get stuck in your body. And

over time, I can look at your
physiology in a few years. Those

of you who are in your 20s and
30s, you may not have any

symptoms right now, but those of
us who are 40s, 50s, 60s, and

we're the starting just. Show in
our body, the physiology of not

dealing with our emotions. You
have to release that stuck

emotional energy, and I do that
in in several different ways.

Number six is the true meaning
behind forgiveness. We've been

taught forgiveness in a very
interesting way, and so I really

dive into the true meaning by
about forgiveness and why it's

so important, and how it makes
the difference in your life,

difference in your life. And
number seven is Respect for

self. I'm going to teach you
respect for yourself, and that

means you learning how to be
safe with you. You learning how

to love and accept yourself. We
can't fully love other people

unless we can love and accept
ourselves. We can't fully

receive love, unless we can
fully receive love and

acceptance of ourselves, Respect
for self also includes using our

voice. We have a tendency to not
speak up sometimes and just

sweep things under the rug
because they haven't gone well

in the past, and so things go
unresolved, teaching you how to

respond instead of react to the
triggers communication, taking

your power back clarity, and
learning how to fully expand

your knowledge, your Freedom and
every part of you, and then

lastly, those are the seven
stages. And then lastly, you're

going to experience freedom. And
that's the best part, my friend,

that is truly the best. The best
part is experiencing freedom

from the constraints, the
prisons that we once had no idea

were a part of us. You know,
resentments are something that

really can tear a marriage down,
and they aren't built overnight.

Truly, they're not formed
overnight. They're formed over

years and years and years. So
how are they formed? Let's talk

about how our resentments are
formed. We start to see at some

point that the perfect man that
we married, there are things

that we don't necessarily

like, and it breaks down the
illusion of the prince charming

story that we have been sold. So
there, you know, there may be

little things in the beginning.
I remember in the beginning of

my marriage, we had separate
bathrooms. I had my own

bathroom. He had his own
bathroom. But when I would go to

use his restroom and I would
close the door, there were about

three or four or 10 pair of
underwear behind there. And so I

started to see this man that I
thought was perfect, like he

left his underwear behind the
door. And so there may be some

other things that happen, like
he chews too loud, or he wears

the same shorts to the gym every
day. Whatever it is, there may

be just these little things that
it starts to break down that

illusion of the prince charming
story. Okay? And, you know, I'm

sure you have your own. We all
have some, but a lot of us,

it's, it's kind of the same
thing. They chew too loud, they

belch a lot, or whatever. So
just think about how that

illusion has actually started to
fade away, the perfect person.

Then we have arguments that
never get resolved. They never

get resolved because we are not
taught how to communicate

effectively, I would say 90% of
the population does not know how

to communicate effectively, and
so you end up in this argument,

and you you go in separate ways,
and nothing is ever talked

about. So it's swept under the
rug until a later time, and that

same argument comes up, and it
gets a little louder, a little

louder, a little louder, more
screaming, and then you go off

in different directions, etc. So
it's the same thing that happens

over and over, but it never gets
resolved, and the friction gets

bigger and bigger and bigger.
It's like, almost like a tornado

that is forming over years and
years. We stop using our voice,

right? We stop using our voice.
We stop talking about or voicing

our needs, our concerns, our
wants and our desires. So let me

ask you something. Have you
actually forgotten what your

desires are? I remember a point
in my marriage where I'm like, I

don't even know what I want. I
don't even know what I want, but

this is like, not fun. It's not
fun. I'm not enjoying this. And

back in my day, I never really
had an idea of the ideal person.

I mean, I had some things I you
know, my the things that I had

in my mind were, I'm not going
to marry a man that had been

married before. I'm not going to
marry a man that had a child,

and I'm not going to marry a man
that was a Baptist. I don't know

where that came from. Anyway, I
That's the man I married. All of

the knots, all of the knots.
That's the man I married. So do

we really know what our desire.
Czar, do we really know what we

want? We need to get crystal
clear on that. And in my

program, limitless lounge,
there's Queen's criteria

criteria where we talk about
that and you really narrow it

down to really what you want.
Because until you really know

what you want, you're going to
continue to have the same issues

pop up over and over and over.
So it's profound when you

actually know your criteria.
Over time, we begin to feel

unseen, unheard and
unappreciated. Anybody relate to

that unseen, unheard and
appreciated, unappreciated and

just so you know, they do too.
They do too. They don't feel

seen, they don't feel heard,
they don't feel supported. Same

thing, actually, the same thing.
Okay, over time we start to shut

down. We build up walls, and
those walls are basically armor

of protection. We don't want
those hurts to go in. So we

build up these walls of
protection, of perfection, that

too. We build up these walls.
And basically what we are doing,

without even recognizing what
we're doing, is we've got these

walls. We don't want the hurts
to come in, but we're also not

putting in ourself in a position
to receive. So when you're

constantly giving in the
relationship, when you have kids

and you're giving, giving,
giving. You're doing, doing,

doing the dishes, the laundry,
all the things. You've got this

armor up because you don't want
to get hurt again, but you're

also not allowing yourself to
receive. So it is a cycle and a

pattern of a lose lose
situation, absolutely lose, lose

situation, and you slowly begin
to slip away from each other,

and you lose your relationship.
And over time, the intimacy,

like I said earlier, the
intimacy becomes null and void,

or it's just checking off our
list. We feel heavy, we feel

drained, we have no energy, and
we have lost our zest, we've

completely lost our zest and
your resentments, though they

tell a story. They tell a story
about what you are going

through. That's the seven steps
to freedom, the process that

helps you come back home to
yourself and create peace in

every area of your life. In the
next episode, you'll hear how

this work comes to life as I
coach a woman from the workshop

through her own story. You'll
hear her struggles and how we

begin to untangle what's really
been holding her back. I'll meet
