What if you didn’t have to choose between being wealthy and being poor, or being in love and being alone? In this episode, Rhonda Britten brings warmth and wisdom to the heart of paradox—revealing why true freedom comes not from fighting opposing truths, but from embracing them fully.

Today, I want to explore the mystery of paradox—and how it can unlock freedom and peace in every part of your life. This episode was inspired by a listener’s question I realized I hadn’t answered fully yet. We’ll dive into what paradox really means: why two seemingly opposite things can both be true at the same time, and how accepting both sides leads to real wholeness.

I’ll share simple, real-life examples—wealth and poverty, love and aloneness—to show how fear keeps us stuck chasing what we want and rejecting what we don’t. You’ll learn that embracing both sides (even the ones that scare you!) is the key to bringing your whole self into every endeavor and relationship. If you crave true freedom, this episode offers a gentle invitation to let go of the either/or mindset and discover the sweet spot where both/and can exist.

What You’ll Discover

1. Why paradox means both sides of the story are true—and how that changes everything
2. How chasing only what you want (and avoiding what you fear) keeps you trapped
3. The reason embracing the possibility of poverty is essential to becoming truly wealthy
4. Why being willing to be alone allows you to experience deeper love
5. How living inside the paradox creates space for your full, whole self
6. Simple practices to help you accept the entire range of your experience—from abundance to lack, intimacy to solitude

Key Takeaway

True freedom comes from embracing both sides of your story—not just chasing one or running from the other. When you live in the paradox, wholeness becomes possible.

Key Quote

“A paradox means that two opposing things are both true. If you can live in the paradox—‘I want an intimate, loving relationship and I’m okay being alone’—that is true freedom.”

How often do you race through your day, swept up in frustration, overwhelm, or confusion—caught in feelings that seem to run your life? In today’s episode, I’ll share why self reflection isn’t just about thinking—it’s about reclaiming your power, rewiring your response to emotions, and building what I call witness consciousness.

I’ll walk you through the simple, gentle practice of pausing, asking yourself what you’re feeling, and giving yourself permission to slow down—especially when everything inside says “go faster.” You’ll learn why moving quickly is often about fear, and how slowing down can put you back in charge of your life, helping you see yourself and others in a new light.
