How do we forgive ourselves when we’ve hurt the ones we love, and how do we simultaneously extend grace and compassion to others when they make mistakes?

We’re all human, which means we’ve all hurt someone at one point or another, but the defining moments often come after when we have to decide how to restore balance. The most harmonious relationships require us to lead with love, and in today’s episode, my walking companion, Lisane Basquiat, is sharing how she applies this philosophy in her life.

As we continue our conversation from our recent episode together on her podcast, Shaping Freedom, we dive deeper into how she has worked to restore balance internally and externally, how this shift requires flexibility and determination, and why it’s important for us to evaluate our wants vs. our needs.

Join us on this walk to find out how you can foster alignment and harmony in yourself and your relationships.

Notable Quotes

  • “Just like in the relationships that we have with other people, there is this ongoing dialogue with ourselves, and it includes the same elements of a quality relationship that we have with other people. Forgiveness, you know – ‘Please forgive me, and let’s move on.’ Because that’s the way, I believe, that you get right with yourself… Because once I’m willing to see myself as a human being who makes mistakes and is trying her best, then I can have true compassion for other people.” – Lisane (24:00)
  • “Now I’m asking myself some very different questions that are not about ego. They’re about something beyond that, something broader than that. And I say it that way because very often, I had to go through this. When I would ask questions like, ‘What are my values?’, a lot of the values that I had, or I should say the definitions of the values that I had, were chosen out of ego and preference. They were chosen out of, ‘If things are like this, then I feel like life is aligned and life is good.’ And now it’s, ‘Actually, no. Let me look at what are the qualities in me that are part of my essence that, when I bring them out, I’m bringing the value to my life – as opposed to lining things up that feel valuable.’” – Luke (43:08)
