00:01:07.350 --> 00:01:16.630 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Hello, and welcome to the expansion room, where inner work meets impact. I'm your host, Siobhan Larice.
00:01:16.710 --> 00:01:29.310 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Psycho-spiritual guide and coach on this journey, and today's episode is going to be a little bit different. It's kind of what I'm calling a threshold episode.
00:01:29.620 --> 00:01:35.389 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It's a moment of completion as a door
00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:39.689 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Closes, and another opens to something new.
00:01:40.290 --> 00:01:46.340 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So… I started this podcast about 5 months ago.
00:01:46.630 --> 00:02:01.209 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And it was something that I had thought about, and others had asked me to do for some time, and it was one of those things that I was like, oh, nope, I'm not interested in that.
00:02:01.210 --> 00:02:08.900 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And then I came across, talkradio.nyc and was curious about this particular platform.
00:02:09.180 --> 00:02:21.379 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And I reached out and had a conversation, with the executive producer, and we started formulating, and talking about
00:02:21.790 --> 00:02:22.780 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: a shell.
00:02:23.310 --> 00:02:29.090 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: what I could bring to the community, to the world.
00:02:29.150 --> 00:02:48.789 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: with the kinds of gifts and works… work that I've done, in my career and in my life. And so, we started back in August, and it has become something for me of a gift, of being able to prepare every week
00:02:48.820 --> 00:02:56.860 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: for this show, and to realize how much, I already,
00:02:56.940 --> 00:03:10.160 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: had within me that I could bring forth. And the guests that I've been able to have on, the show have really added to that richness.
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:24.360 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, today's episode, I'm calling the threshold episode, because I will be transitioning. Today's episode is my final episode on TalkRadio.nyc's platform.
00:03:24.900 --> 00:03:29.139 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Though, it is not the end of the expansion room itself.
00:03:29.190 --> 00:03:46.549 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It has truly been an honor for me to host this show here, on this platform, and to grow with you, and explore the depths of healing and consciousness, and bring meaningful conversations to life here.
00:03:47.260 --> 00:03:52.259 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And, as with all sacred journeys, right, there's some…
00:03:52.760 --> 00:04:05.650 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: kind of a moment that comes up where there's a transition, not necessarily an ending. And those transitions are an initiation to the next chapter.
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:15.890 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so that's the way I'm seeing it. And so today's episode, we're going to explore what it means to cross a threshold.
00:04:16.180 --> 00:04:21.320 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What it means to let go and to become
00:04:21.610 --> 00:04:29.349 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And what it means to honor the sacred next chapter unfolding within us all.
00:04:30.070 --> 00:04:31.480 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So let's begin!
00:04:33.210 --> 00:04:37.400 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There's a sacred art to completion, I think.
00:04:37.910 --> 00:04:55.939 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: every cycle in our lives, whether that's a relationship, whether romantic or professional, a role that we're playing in the world, a season, a creative offering that we might be bringing to the world, it all asks
00:04:55.960 --> 00:04:59.780 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To be completed with intention.
00:05:00.290 --> 00:05:09.120 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: the same kind of intention we hopefully began with, right? Creation
00:05:09.270 --> 00:05:24.709 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Allows us to see something be birthed and come into fruition, and as we know with nature, everything has its ebbs and flows, its rise and fall, its growth.
00:05:24.760 --> 00:05:34.709 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And then it's, descent, right? And so, completion is not the same as closure, necessarily.
00:05:34.770 --> 00:05:37.809 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But it is an energetic release.
00:05:37.990 --> 00:05:42.949 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It is a conscious honoring of what has been.
00:05:43.820 --> 00:05:59.169 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so, over these past, 5 months of hosting the expansion room on this platform, it has been a practice in presence, leadership, and vulnerability for me.
00:05:59.820 --> 00:06:10.949 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I feel like I've grown in ways that I did not, imagine that I would in being able to offer this show to the community.
00:06:11.090 --> 00:06:15.160 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It has confirmed for me a few things.
00:06:15.290 --> 00:06:22.849 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That the inner world always guides the outer expression of our lives.
00:06:23.460 --> 00:06:29.289 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And that conscious leadership begins with deep listening.
00:06:30.390 --> 00:06:35.319 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And that expansion requires integration.
00:06:35.530 --> 00:06:39.309 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Not rushing into the next thing.
00:06:40.510 --> 00:06:47.010 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And that transitions are sacred portals, if we allow them to be.
00:06:48.460 --> 00:07:08.429 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So I want to take a moment to honor this chapter, these five months, to name its gifts, to acknowledge its growth, and to thank this space in particular for holding me and this community, all of those who have tuned in regularly, to listen or watch.
00:07:09.140 --> 00:07:14.599 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So I'm inviting you to do the same in your own lives.
00:07:14.630 --> 00:07:30.090 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? So I'm doing this for myself, with my show, with my practice, and what I offer in the world, and it is the end of a year.
00:07:30.260 --> 00:07:44.869 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We are here in… at the end of 2025, and so this transition for me comes at a time when there's a natural transition
00:07:44.870 --> 00:07:58.920 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: happening all around us, right, in our environment. We're moving right into winter. Those of you who are here watching or listening on the East Coast, particularly the Mid-Atlantic, you know it's been cold.
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:06.270 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? Probably one of the coldest Decembers some of us have experienced in a while. So we're transitioning in
00:08:06.270 --> 00:08:07.549 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: to Winter.
00:08:08.530 --> 00:08:23.690 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We are coming in to the end of a year, and people traditionally like to start the new year with resolutions, and I tend to believe in
00:08:23.690 --> 00:08:30.390 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: intention setting rather than resolution. So, intentions for me are broader.
00:08:30.390 --> 00:08:43.789 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And we bring ourselves each day, almost in a ceremonial way, to action towards those intentions, right? And so we're doing that now.
00:08:44.510 --> 00:08:50.659 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: as we move towards the end of this year. And so…
00:08:52.050 --> 00:09:00.619 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: as you tune in for yourself while hearing my voice, I invite you to ask yourself, what cycle
00:09:00.940 --> 00:09:06.320 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: In your own life, Is coming to completion right now.
00:09:09.490 --> 00:09:14.160 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What cycle in your own life is coming to completion right now?
00:09:17.160 --> 00:09:20.349 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Sometimes, things come up for us.
00:09:20.790 --> 00:09:25.079 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: For completion, and we don't even realize it.
00:09:25.400 --> 00:09:38.790 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We still forge ahead with our day-to-day activities, our goals, our to-dos, our schedule, And we miss…
00:09:39.180 --> 00:09:47.780 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: These opportunities that might come in that hint to us, or nudge to us, There's a shift.
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:54.220 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That needs to be made. That there's a completion of one thing.
00:09:54.990 --> 00:09:59.569 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And the possibility of a new thing that lays ahead.
00:10:00.610 --> 00:10:02.979 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We miss it because
00:10:03.460 --> 00:10:12.440 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: For some people, we like our routines, we like things to be the way they are, the way that we've known them to be for some time.
00:10:13.920 --> 00:10:21.149 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: For others, there's a resistance, right? A desire to still hold onto.
00:10:21.920 --> 00:10:29.499 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Something that either we love, or cherish, or we've simply gotten used to.
00:10:29.750 --> 00:10:37.220 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so we don't really want to let it end, right? Or let it go.
00:10:37.940 --> 00:10:45.759 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: come to completion with it. Sometimes that's a relationship, Sometimes, it's a job.
00:10:46.020 --> 00:10:51.909 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: For me, I've had relationships that definitely needed to end, and I…
00:10:52.660 --> 00:10:59.629 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: can count the amount of years that I stayed after I knew.
00:11:00.130 --> 00:11:02.680 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That that relationship should end.
00:11:05.040 --> 00:11:10.969 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I have stayed at jobs longer than I should have.
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:16.350 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Because there's security in having
00:11:16.620 --> 00:11:22.540 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: An actual job where you get, you know, it's a 9-to-5, basically, and you get a paycheck.
00:11:22.810 --> 00:11:31.859 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I remember when I left my job with the federal government, and one of my… there were a couple of co-workers that were like, what? You're gonna leave?
00:11:32.260 --> 00:11:44.620 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: the federal… you're gonna leave this… the safety net of the federal government, of this good-paying job, and it's consistent? What? To do your own thing? But one… one co-worker in particular said.
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:53.850 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That she would never consider such a thing, because there was safety in knowing that every two weeks.
00:11:55.060 --> 00:11:59.060 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That she was going to receive a paycheck, and to be…
00:11:59.390 --> 00:12:06.609 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Self-employed or to be an entrepreneur or a business owner was too… felt too risky for her.
00:12:07.750 --> 00:12:21.330 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: For me, the thought of being an entrepreneur felt freeing. It felt exciting to know that I had turned in my notice, and that I was free
00:12:21.330 --> 00:12:28.519 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: to move forward doing something that I really, truly enjoyed, and really, truly loved.
00:12:29.450 --> 00:12:32.380 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so… Yes.
00:12:33.340 --> 00:12:46.709 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I could have stayed there, and maybe there's some alternate universe version of me that is still working that job, although with the things that have been going on in the last year, maybe not.
00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:51.319 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But this version of me… Said yes.
00:12:51.680 --> 00:12:58.069 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To myself, and to that nudge that was going on in the back of my mind.
00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:07.029 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, ask yourself that question. What cycle in your life is coming up For completion right now.
00:13:07.580 --> 00:13:16.080 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And where might you need to pause, breathe, and consciously close a chapter?
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:19.079 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Before you begin another.
00:13:20.820 --> 00:13:28.580 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Because completion creates space For what is next? For what is new.
00:13:29.950 --> 00:13:40.410 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, we're up at our first break, and when we come back, we're going to be talking a little bit more about letting go.
00:13:40.600 --> 00:13:42.549 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, come on back.
00:15:28.070 --> 00:15:36.549 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Welcome back to the Expansion Room. I'm your host, Siobhan Larisse, and today we are talking about thresholds.
00:15:36.650 --> 00:15:47.739 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: The shift that we… Make when we're stepping away from one thing and moving towards something else.
00:15:48.230 --> 00:15:56.219 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And this, today's episode will be my last episode on this particular platform.
00:15:56.380 --> 00:16:00.389 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But it does not mean that the show will end.
00:16:00.650 --> 00:16:06.509 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so, when we think about threshold moments.
00:16:07.660 --> 00:16:14.159 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: They're powerful experiences shift… people can usually point to
00:16:14.510 --> 00:16:20.170 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Threshold moments in their lives when something big changed.
00:16:20.510 --> 00:16:33.240 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: When they let go of one way of being in the world, and stepped into another, or a new way of being.
00:16:34.070 --> 00:16:37.520 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so, threshold moments are powerful.
00:16:37.630 --> 00:16:45.620 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Not necessarily because they're dramatic, Because they are quiet invitations to the soul.
00:16:47.250 --> 00:16:51.570 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Letting go of anything is rarely easy.
00:16:51.830 --> 00:16:55.829 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But it is usually clarifying.
00:16:56.110 --> 00:17:05.659 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so, for me, shifting Where my podcast, is hosted, is an act of alignment.
00:17:05.950 --> 00:17:07.290 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And…
00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:26.210 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It's a choice to create something new, a show that expands even deeper into the work I've been doing within myself and with my clients. It is work that is rooted in embodied spirituality.
00:17:27.170 --> 00:17:31.169 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Nervous system attunement and alignment.
00:17:31.850 --> 00:17:38.140 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Identity expansion, energetic alignment, somatic wisdom.
00:17:38.470 --> 00:17:43.540 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: and The Sacred Architecture of Transformation.
00:17:44.200 --> 00:17:49.650 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And in all of that, there's a freedom.
00:17:50.400 --> 00:18:03.059 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… The freedom for me is to be able to have more flexibility, and… Maybe even more time.
00:18:03.820 --> 00:18:04.960 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:18:05.210 --> 00:18:06.800 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: more space.
00:18:08.300 --> 00:18:19.319 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To do the things that are starting to come up for me, nudge me forward into deeper work within the community.
00:18:19.890 --> 00:18:21.069 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: that I serve.
00:18:21.830 --> 00:18:25.540 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: A threshold is a spiritual metaphor.
00:18:26.070 --> 00:18:32.710 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It is kind of like the place where the pass… Cannot follow.
00:18:34.330 --> 00:18:39.020 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And yet, the future has not yet formed.
00:18:39.670 --> 00:18:42.940 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I liken it to this feeling…
00:18:43.310 --> 00:18:51.509 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: This is the first time I remember this feeling coming over me, was about…
00:18:52.380 --> 00:19:00.099 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: 20 years ago, and I remembered this this morning as I was thinking about this episode, 20 years ago.
00:19:00.980 --> 00:19:03.860 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It's a little over 20 years ago, it was this…
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:08.979 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: moment where I had gotten the acceptance letter.
00:19:09.890 --> 00:19:24.479 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: for grad school, for the program that I wanted to move through to become a pastoral counselor. And I had taken some time, some years, to find the right
00:19:24.750 --> 00:19:27.090 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Graduate program for me.
00:19:27.610 --> 00:19:34.770 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And when I found this program, it was just intuitive. I knew it was the right program for me.
00:19:35.310 --> 00:19:41.119 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It allowed for not only, psychology.
00:19:41.770 --> 00:19:55.739 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: and mental health, and theory to be in the space of working with a client, but it also invited spirituality in, because even then, I knew you could not
00:19:55.860 --> 00:19:59.759 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Know yourself fully until you knew your spirit.
00:20:00.280 --> 00:20:16.730 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? And so this program, as a… becoming a pastoral counselor, I got the letter and was very, of course, excited. And this was at the beginning of 2001. So this is a little… almost 25 years ago.
00:20:17.170 --> 00:20:22.989 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And I felt like I was standing, literally, on the precipice
00:20:25.330 --> 00:20:30.849 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: like, the image that came in my mind was I was standing on the edge of a cliff.
00:20:31.160 --> 00:20:36.869 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: or a mountain, And I was about to jump into the unknown.
00:20:37.220 --> 00:20:44.590 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so… What was behind me was everything I knew and was familiar with.
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:47.380 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And what was ahead of me.
00:20:47.490 --> 00:20:51.939 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: was something that I didn't know, but was calling me.
00:20:52.700 --> 00:20:54.040 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so…
00:20:54.380 --> 00:21:06.070 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There are those… there are these moments that have come up for me again and again over this past 25… almost 25 years.
00:21:06.220 --> 00:21:16.479 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Wow, time has flown. And so every time I feel that feeling of standing with the mountain behind me.
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:23.110 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And all I know… And the unknown ahead of me that's calling me
00:21:24.120 --> 00:21:40.339 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: it's exciting, it's titillating, it's… it's a… it's a yearning within me, or a desire within me that's bubbling up to the surface that needs to be expressed, and I have to move towards it.
00:21:41.630 --> 00:21:48.619 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It's the moment for me, and probably for all of us, where we feel both
00:21:48.800 --> 00:21:51.180 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Maybe a sense of loss.
00:21:51.480 --> 00:22:07.000 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Of what has been, because you do have to let go of something, right? I have really enjoyed being on this platform, and I have really enjoyed working with all the people that I've worked with on this platform, and have connected with on this platform.
00:22:07.730 --> 00:22:17.859 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But in letting go of what has been, there's also the possibility of what is becoming, what is ahead of me.
00:22:18.220 --> 00:22:35.580 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So I'm standing at that threshold now, and I suspect, especially since we're at the end of a year, and soon to step into a new year, all of you, or at least many of you, are experiencing that as well.
00:22:36.140 --> 00:22:38.060 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There could also be…
00:22:38.800 --> 00:22:49.999 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: A number of you who are experiencing threshold moments in your own life, whether that's in career, whether that's relationship, whether that's
00:22:50.000 --> 00:23:06.290 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: some other area of your personal life, like my… one of my favorite things that I've been talking about with women in my life, because we are of that age, is menopause. That is a threshold moment as you're moving through perimenopause towards menopause.
00:23:06.640 --> 00:23:09.329 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There are things you let go of?
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:22.269 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: that have been familiar to you, and there is something a little unfamiliar that you're moving towards. So, we all have these kinds of transitions in our lives.
00:23:22.300 --> 00:23:31.769 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And I'm inviting each and every one of you to be aware of them, right? These transitional threshold moments.
00:23:32.320 --> 00:23:39.730 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, as we are coming to the end of this year, I'm gonna ask you another question.
00:23:40.970 --> 00:23:45.750 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What do you need to let go of in your life?
00:23:45.970 --> 00:23:52.510 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To become the person that your next chapter requires.
00:23:55.110 --> 00:24:02.089 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What do you need to let go of to become the person your next chapter requires?
00:24:03.580 --> 00:24:04.560 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:24:05.850 --> 00:24:14.510 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Because oftentimes, We can't continue holding on to the old and be able to pick up the new.
00:24:18.420 --> 00:24:24.659 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There are spaces in our lives where both the old and the new cannot reside.
00:24:26.750 --> 00:24:32.839 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: When we desire to become something new.
00:24:33.410 --> 00:24:37.750 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We cannot hold on to the old identity.
00:24:38.810 --> 00:24:44.200 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We have to let it go in order to step into the new.
00:24:46.040 --> 00:24:50.070 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So… What has been calling you?
00:24:52.190 --> 00:24:55.629 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What has been nudging at you?
00:24:56.440 --> 00:25:06.940 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Maybe it's been for quite some time, maybe it's a new thing you've noticed, right? And in order for you to step into
00:25:07.400 --> 00:25:12.820 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That newness… There's something you've gotta let go of.
00:25:13.180 --> 00:25:17.210 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To become that person in your next chapter.
00:25:18.710 --> 00:25:20.970 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So take a moment, take a breath.
00:25:23.340 --> 00:25:27.649 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And allow yourself to notice just what that is.
00:25:30.620 --> 00:25:36.119 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It could be something small, or it could be something big for your life.
00:25:38.640 --> 00:25:39.680 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:25:42.210 --> 00:25:48.710 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Who you're becoming In the world, or… and that could be…
00:25:48.850 --> 00:26:01.280 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: In your personal life, in your career, in your work life, or maybe there's a business idea that you've been noodling on for quite some time, but have not stepped into
00:26:01.790 --> 00:26:04.209 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: The knowing of it, right?
00:26:04.940 --> 00:26:06.270 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So…
00:26:07.380 --> 00:26:16.550 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: In doing that, you have to let go of something, so who we are in the world is always built on
00:26:17.480 --> 00:26:20.329 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Or built from our desires.
00:26:20.430 --> 00:26:33.849 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And for too many of us, we hold desires in our hearts and in our minds, but we don't allow them to bubble to the surface so that we can embody them.
00:26:34.850 --> 00:26:40.489 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And become the actual person we were always meant to be in the world.
00:26:42.260 --> 00:26:44.600 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I forget who said this.
00:26:45.840 --> 00:26:57.770 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But I've heard it multiple times over my life that The graveyard is full of… So many riches.
00:26:58.270 --> 00:27:07.910 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Because people have died Holding on to… the gifts… And the dreams…
00:27:08.040 --> 00:27:12.629 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And the ideas that they were meant to share in the world.
00:27:13.350 --> 00:27:21.710 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? And so, a lot of the work that I do Is encouraging people
00:27:22.870 --> 00:27:35.479 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To really be themselves, to become the person that they're longing to be, or that they envision in their minds and hearts to be, or that…
00:27:35.630 --> 00:27:38.510 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: They want it to be as kids.
00:27:38.860 --> 00:27:42.919 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But grew up becoming something completely different.
00:27:44.280 --> 00:27:52.680 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? So what do you have to let go of in order to step into something new.
00:27:53.500 --> 00:27:55.319 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Some new identity.
00:27:59.930 --> 00:28:06.660 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so, taking another breath… Just noticing what comes up for you as you think about this.
00:28:06.910 --> 00:28:19.290 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And we're going to take our next break, our second break, and when we come back, we'll talk a little bit about becoming, and the embodiment of
00:28:19.850 --> 00:28:29.200 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: An idea and an identity that you have to have in order to become Come on back.
00:30:02.860 --> 00:30:14.280 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Welcome back to the Expansion Room. I'm your host, Siobhan Larise, and today we are talking about crossing the threshold, right, into something new.
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:18.340 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… One of the things that…
00:30:19.520 --> 00:30:27.259 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: is key, I think, is in crossing a threshold, is knowing that
00:30:27.370 --> 00:30:31.820 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Something has to shift in you, an identity has to shift in you.
00:30:32.030 --> 00:30:36.100 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We are here to be…
00:30:36.950 --> 00:30:44.720 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: As big, and as bright, and as shiny as we are supposed to be, as we are created to be.
00:30:45.280 --> 00:30:51.920 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… Identity involves embodiment.
00:30:54.080 --> 00:31:07.610 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: One of the things I think we see a lot of in the… probably in the self-help world in particular, but even in the coaching world, the business coaching world, is
00:31:08.090 --> 00:31:13.880 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We talk a lot about… What actions to take?
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:19.600 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… Maybe ways to think?
00:31:20.450 --> 00:31:30.210 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But we don't always talk about what is involved in stepping into a new identity.
00:31:31.340 --> 00:31:32.520 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So…
00:31:33.650 --> 00:31:49.150 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: identities… when we want to become something new, there's an identity shift that needs to happen, an embodiment that needs to happen. It can't just be based on theory.
00:31:49.870 --> 00:31:54.570 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Ideas, right? Or even understanding.
00:31:55.870 --> 00:31:57.520 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: becoming…
00:31:57.840 --> 00:32:16.979 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: is not about striving, it's not about self-improvement. It is more about the unveiling that happens, much like a sculpture, a sculptor, revealing the beauty
00:32:17.670 --> 00:32:24.380 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: By carving away what does not belong, From a block of stone.
00:32:24.610 --> 00:32:37.649 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: If you've ever watched an artist work with either clay, or marble, or some other… even, wood.
00:32:37.810 --> 00:32:39.509 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: They start with a block.
00:32:39.760 --> 00:32:46.349 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And to the untrained eye, it just looks like a block.
00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:51.230 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But they can see underneath it what.
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:55.950 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: what it is. And they… Chip away at the parts.
00:32:57.040 --> 00:33:05.770 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That don't need to be there, that don't belong, so that the beauty of what they see in their mind's eye
00:33:06.260 --> 00:33:14.169 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: shows in reality, right? And so, becoming is a remembering.
00:33:14.500 --> 00:33:16.889 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Crossing the threshold.
00:33:17.110 --> 00:33:19.240 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Into something new.
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:24.780 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: In part, is a remembering of who you are.
00:33:25.100 --> 00:33:31.130 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Beneath the conditioning, the fear, the internalized expectations.
00:33:33.020 --> 00:33:42.709 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: When we're crossing a threshold, we're moving into a next chapter, and the next chapter of the expansion room is rooted in that truth.
00:33:43.860 --> 00:33:54.229 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: When the show relaunches in January, you will notice a shift that there will be more embodied practices
00:33:54.420 --> 00:34:12.969 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Where I will share with you practices and ways of using your own body, mind, even your own energy to embody the truths that we will be talking about.
00:34:13.380 --> 00:34:21.540 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There will be more spiritual integration. When we first started this show, we talked a lot about…
00:34:22.500 --> 00:34:30.019 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Things we can do to improve our mental health and our mental well-being.
00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:40.739 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And some of that included spirituality, and there will be more spiritual integration as we move forward with this show.
00:34:41.659 --> 00:34:50.219 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: There will be more conversations also about consciousness, healing, and conscious leadership.
00:34:50.590 --> 00:34:52.319 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: From the inside out.
00:34:54.170 --> 00:35:01.890 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: the show is essentially becoming something new because I've been becoming something new.
00:35:02.130 --> 00:35:08.250 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And that evolution is guiding everything now that I create.
00:35:08.630 --> 00:35:19.289 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so there are things that I want to step into and have more flexibility to step into, and more spaciousness to step into in 2026.
00:35:19.500 --> 00:35:37.229 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so, shifting the show to a new platform will give me more of that flexibility and spaciousness, so that I can do more of the things that have started in the world, that have started to bubble up.
00:35:37.290 --> 00:35:40.919 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: In my own system and in my own experience.
00:35:41.710 --> 00:35:52.840 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So 2025 has been a really big year for a lot of people, to shed old beliefs.
00:35:53.390 --> 00:36:04.120 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: and identity. It… I think it was the year of the snake, and so that seems to track, right? Snakes eventually shed their skin.
00:36:04.590 --> 00:36:06.890 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: At some point each year.
00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:24.479 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And I feel like the people around me have been doing a fair amount of that. And I'm seeing it also in posts in social media. And I have felt like there has been a shedding in my own life as well.
00:36:24.560 --> 00:36:30.780 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Of old beliefs, old identities, old ways of being.
00:36:31.010 --> 00:36:33.720 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Old ways of doing things.
00:36:34.540 --> 00:36:41.380 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And also letting go of things that no longer serve us, right?
00:36:41.820 --> 00:36:48.669 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So… Your becoming is guiding you, too.
00:36:49.220 --> 00:37:02.509 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? As you think about what you need to let go of, or maybe what you have already let go of this year, know that you're becoming your next chapter, your next steps.
00:37:03.100 --> 00:37:04.980 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Is guiding you, too.
00:37:05.580 --> 00:37:12.219 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And when you really tune inward, you'll feel it, and you'll know it too.
00:37:13.620 --> 00:37:28.900 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And if you're sensing the subtle pull towards expansion, towards alignment, towards truth of who you are, then I encourage you to really tune in and listen to that pull.
00:37:32.720 --> 00:37:41.810 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Going back to the idea that Many people miss… when…
00:37:43.380 --> 00:37:56.360 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Either their body, or something in their environment, or something that they do on a regular basis is nudging for them to make a shift
00:37:58.010 --> 00:38:01.950 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Sometimes that happens for people.
00:38:02.600 --> 00:38:05.130 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: with… Illness?
00:38:05.780 --> 00:38:13.080 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: sometimes, People will have… Something come up with their health.
00:38:13.570 --> 00:38:18.319 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That literally makes them slow down.
00:38:18.660 --> 00:38:20.940 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Enough to hear.
00:38:21.650 --> 00:38:25.099 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And to listen. To turn inward.
00:38:27.640 --> 00:38:32.470 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And that's when they decide to make a change, right?
00:38:32.870 --> 00:38:34.420 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It is…
00:38:34.620 --> 00:38:42.919 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: as some people will call it, life forcing you to make a change. And so, for some people, it's illness.
00:38:43.060 --> 00:38:53.029 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: For others, it's the loss of a significant relationship, either when someone passes away, or through divorce or separation.
00:38:54.200 --> 00:38:58.409 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It can even be a loss in job.
00:38:59.800 --> 00:39:05.920 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Something major usually triggers this awakening.
00:39:06.120 --> 00:39:14.400 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: This turning inward, this shift Towards the possibility of something new.
00:39:15.610 --> 00:39:24.520 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: The letting go of the old to move across the threshold to something new, to the new identity, to the new self.
00:39:24.950 --> 00:39:34.140 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We're seeing a lot of that, I think, in my area, particularly. I live outside of DC, so there have been some significant job losses.
00:39:34.290 --> 00:39:40.900 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But I've heard also stories of people who in losing their job, found
00:39:42.080 --> 00:39:50.280 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Spaciousness to reimagine a life where they start their own consulting firm.
00:39:50.850 --> 00:40:05.090 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Or start working on the business idea that they had. Or they step more into the healing arts and the healing work that they've always wanted to do, but work got in the way.
00:40:06.340 --> 00:40:07.280 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:40:07.560 --> 00:40:08.890 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And so…
00:40:10.450 --> 00:40:19.640 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I think as we come to the end of this year, I would encourage people who might be feeling that nudge
00:40:19.640 --> 00:40:30.849 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: to ask themselves, why wait? Why wait for life to hand you a situation where you have to, or are forced to?
00:40:30.850 --> 00:40:35.190 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Make a different decision, or make a different choice.
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:37.260 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:40:38.860 --> 00:40:40.940 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What else is there?
00:40:42.030 --> 00:40:43.110 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: bore you.
00:40:43.630 --> 00:40:50.230 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That was a question that I asked myself in the pandemic. What else is there for me?
00:40:51.080 --> 00:40:56.589 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: As you all can probably remember, the pandemic gave us a lot of time
00:40:56.730 --> 00:41:09.870 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: that we normally would not have had. And so, besides working and seeing an exorbitant number of clients during that time online.
00:41:09.880 --> 00:41:16.880 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I had a lot more spaciousness in my life to ask the existential question.
00:41:17.030 --> 00:41:21.800 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Of what else is there? What else can I offer to the world?
00:41:22.410 --> 00:41:24.810 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Is this all there is?
00:41:25.290 --> 00:41:26.350 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:41:26.690 --> 00:41:43.209 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And that's when the version of me that would say yes to being a podcast host started to bubble up to the surface. Took a while for me to get here, but that's when it started to bubble up to the surface. And so…
00:41:43.670 --> 00:41:46.609 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Why wait till there's another pandemic?
00:41:47.990 --> 00:41:53.060 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Why wait till life hands you a forced choice?
00:41:54.070 --> 00:42:00.189 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Why wait till it's a big transition nudging you?
00:42:01.930 --> 00:42:06.000 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So… I'll ask you this.
00:42:06.580 --> 00:42:08.700 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What version?
00:42:09.080 --> 00:42:14.129 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I'll ask you to ask yourself, rather, what version of me is emerging right now?
00:42:17.690 --> 00:42:25.389 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: As we begin to close out this year, what version of me is emerging right now?
00:42:25.560 --> 00:42:34.920 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… what qualities… what truths… or desires.
00:42:35.050 --> 00:42:38.819 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Are calling out to be embodied.
00:42:41.980 --> 00:42:48.450 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What qualities, truths, and desires are calling out to be embodied.
00:42:49.340 --> 00:42:58.420 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And I love this word, embodied, or embodiment, because it's really to take what might be moving through your mind as thought.
00:42:59.230 --> 00:43:02.120 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And letting it take root within you.
00:43:04.150 --> 00:43:11.029 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: feeling into that. So feel into… these two questions.
00:43:12.350 --> 00:43:13.380 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:43:13.670 --> 00:43:22.829 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… Listen to what bubbles to the surface by what you feel in your body.
00:43:23.670 --> 00:43:33.600 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: One of the coolest things I know from experience, and experience with working with clients, our bodies… Tell us.
00:43:33.840 --> 00:43:45.869 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: When we're in alignment and on the right track, moving towards our highest self and our highest good, and our bodies tell us when we're not.
00:43:46.960 --> 00:43:47.910 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right?
00:43:48.370 --> 00:43:55.339 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, when people feel sick to their stomach before they're going to do something that they don't really want to do.
00:43:55.910 --> 00:43:58.780 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Or, every time…
00:43:58.990 --> 00:44:07.429 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: They are called on to do something they're not comfortable with. They're sick, or they find themselves getting sick.
00:44:07.790 --> 00:44:11.289 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: My favorite is a story that I had read
00:44:11.740 --> 00:44:21.499 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: About a guy who had to do a presentation at work, And he knew…
00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:33.770 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: that he was not going to be available to do the things that he was presenting on in the coming year. And literally that morning, he woke up with laryngitis.
00:44:33.970 --> 00:44:43.959 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, our bodies… Like, the book says, keep the score. And so… When you're thinking about what
00:44:44.650 --> 00:44:50.899 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: The end of this year means for you, and what threshold you might be crossing.
00:44:51.080 --> 00:44:56.140 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And where you're crossing into. Let that feeling
00:44:57.440 --> 00:45:01.720 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Sink deep into you, and then bubble up to the surface.
00:45:02.420 --> 00:45:04.000 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: for acknowledgement.
00:45:04.690 --> 00:45:12.000 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We are taking our next break, our last break, and when we come back.
00:45:12.670 --> 00:45:24.490 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We will talk about the future, and what it's going to likely look like, the what's next for the expansion room. So come on back.
00:46:57.750 --> 00:47:03.239 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So what's next? What is past the threshold?
00:47:03.520 --> 00:47:16.669 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That's what we're talking about today in the episode of The Expansion Room, and this being the last episode that will be recorded on talkradio.nyc.
00:47:17.130 --> 00:47:25.789 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And as I step into this new chapter, or this new season of the show, and new season of my own life.
00:47:26.080 --> 00:47:33.909 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: One theme has been alive for me, and it's been alive in my work.
00:47:34.090 --> 00:47:36.970 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And in my own inner world.
00:47:37.130 --> 00:47:43.290 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: that… The power of embodied decision.
00:47:45.550 --> 00:47:58.720 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: going back to what we were talking about before the break, right? Allowing something to really take hold in your emotional state, feeling into it, right? Feeling…
00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:03.079 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Deeply connected to your identity.
00:48:03.950 --> 00:48:06.620 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Is part of embodiment.
00:48:07.010 --> 00:48:12.770 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And the power of embodied decision is not about logic.
00:48:13.460 --> 00:48:20.819 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It's not about certainty, It's not even about having a specific kind of plan.
00:48:20.990 --> 00:48:33.000 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Decision is about… Feeling into your own intuition, Your own inner guidance system.
00:48:33.780 --> 00:48:36.150 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Your own frequency.
00:48:36.760 --> 00:48:41.310 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So that you know in what direction
00:48:42.360 --> 00:48:46.060 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: This way, that way. You want to go.
00:48:48.330 --> 00:48:57.849 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Decision is frequency, and when you can decide on something, it shifts your energy towards alignment.
00:48:58.260 --> 00:49:02.330 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And it activates your next level.
00:49:03.510 --> 00:49:05.549 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Your next steps.
00:49:06.200 --> 00:49:11.560 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: When you make a decision, that means you can hold focus.
00:49:11.920 --> 00:49:15.050 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: You turn down the noise.
00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:20.590 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That might be going on, and you hold focus.
00:49:21.450 --> 00:49:30.420 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That's really what decision making is about, right? The same as turning the radio dial to
00:49:30.450 --> 00:49:43.799 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: get a certain radio station that has certain music, or maybe it's talk radio, right? You have to turn that dial, and when you get on that right station.
00:49:43.950 --> 00:49:59.989 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It tunes out all the other stations, all the other noise, and you hold that frequency in order to listen to what you're desiring to listen to. And so, decision making is very similar to that.
00:50:00.100 --> 00:50:05.530 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And it helps you to then step into the next level.
00:50:05.740 --> 00:50:09.080 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It helps you to create momentum.
00:50:09.440 --> 00:50:21.340 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Long before anything even changes externally, right? When you think about me, wanting to do…
00:50:21.470 --> 00:50:24.109 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: A pastoral counseling degree.
00:50:24.520 --> 00:50:26.760 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I was excited.
00:50:26.890 --> 00:50:31.429 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Long before I stepped into the classroom.
00:50:31.980 --> 00:50:45.769 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I got that acceptance letter probably 6 months before I even stepped into a classroom. But I was excited. I knew where I was going.
00:50:46.300 --> 00:50:48.900 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Because I had made a decision.
00:50:50.980 --> 00:50:54.959 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: My decision to reimagine
00:50:55.090 --> 00:51:10.200 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: This show, the expansion room, to step into a deeper sense of clarity with this show, and to expand into more of a spiritually embodied space.
00:51:10.910 --> 00:51:15.920 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: With this show, is part of my own transformation.
00:51:16.890 --> 00:51:23.320 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I feel like I've been on a long road, or a long trip, to get here.
00:51:23.730 --> 00:51:36.960 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And… The ahas and, the joys that I've experienced in hosting this show,
00:51:37.150 --> 00:51:44.180 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: On this platform have really… Sparked something in me.
00:51:44.340 --> 00:51:50.500 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And hence why I'm wanting a little bit more flexibility and more spaciousness.
00:51:50.860 --> 00:51:52.730 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But I…
00:51:53.570 --> 00:52:04.279 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: when I was really standing on that edge of that cliff and jumping into hosting, I had no idea that I was going to feel that, right?
00:52:04.380 --> 00:52:19.730 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I was jumping into the unknown. I was saying yes to myself to do this thing, but I had no idea how I was going to feel about it. And it has really been one of the added joys to my life.
00:52:20.250 --> 00:52:31.779 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And at this time in my life, and at this age, I am only choosing the things that I feel like bring me joy, happiness, smile, peace.
00:52:32.880 --> 00:52:39.590 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: You know, warmth, grace… And doing this podcast is one of them.
00:52:40.510 --> 00:52:44.580 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, my first episode in the relaunch
00:52:44.900 --> 00:52:53.749 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: We will explore this idea of decision, how decision becomes the catalyst of inner shifts.
00:52:54.120 --> 00:52:59.419 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Identity, evolution, soul-aligned growth.
00:52:59.620 --> 00:53:01.600 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That's where we're gonna start.
00:53:02.510 --> 00:53:07.469 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: But today, I want really to plant a seed.
00:53:08.840 --> 00:53:16.979 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: To ask you what decision is your soul asking you to make?
00:53:19.980 --> 00:53:23.960 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What decision is your soul asking you to make?
00:53:25.180 --> 00:53:29.070 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That would change everything for you.
00:53:31.500 --> 00:53:37.480 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Right? So just pause, take a breath, come to that question, and feel…
00:53:37.640 --> 00:53:45.060 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: into your body, through your intuition, as to what the answer is. Let that bubble to the surface.
00:53:45.780 --> 00:53:49.200 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: What change is your soul asking you to make?
00:53:49.610 --> 00:53:53.209 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: That would literally change everything for you.
00:53:54.130 --> 00:53:56.700 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Would it make you happier?
00:54:00.150 --> 00:54:02.850 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Would it bring more abundance?
00:54:03.890 --> 00:54:07.509 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Would it bring more connection in your life?
00:54:10.130 --> 00:54:14.800 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: would help you feel better in your body, whatever that could be.
00:54:15.780 --> 00:54:22.739 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Allow that question to kind of float for you, and see what answer comes to you.
00:54:23.990 --> 00:54:27.100 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Feel it in your body, not in your mind.
00:54:27.420 --> 00:54:32.009 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Because again, your body always tells you the truth first.
00:54:35.490 --> 00:54:43.379 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So… Let's close with a quick practice. Wherever you are. Just take a pause.
00:54:43.590 --> 00:54:45.810 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Take a deep inhale in.
00:54:48.130 --> 00:54:51.550 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And a long, slow exhale out.
00:54:55.360 --> 00:54:59.280 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Let your shoulders soften, and let your jaw relax.
00:55:01.050 --> 00:55:06.600 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And then placing one hand on your heart, Feel your breath.
00:55:06.760 --> 00:55:09.650 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And feel your own presence.
00:55:10.580 --> 00:55:18.189 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And in honor of the end of 2025, repeat this silently to yourself.
00:55:18.720 --> 00:55:25.629 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I honor what has been… I welcome… What is becoming?
00:55:27.040 --> 00:55:32.940 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I step across the threshold with clarity, courage, and trust.
00:55:35.630 --> 00:55:37.499 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Now take one more breath.
00:55:39.850 --> 00:55:42.709 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And release that. Let it go.
00:55:45.770 --> 00:55:55.160 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: I want to thank you all for being here today, and all the other episodes that you've tuned into.
00:55:55.370 --> 00:56:02.509 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Thank you for listening, for watching, for growing with me in this space.

00:56:09.600 --> 00:56:15.179 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: It is simply transition into a more sacred completion.
00:56:15.540 --> 00:56:32.390 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And the first week of January, right around January 1st, the expansion room returned, reborn and reimagined, with more deeply rooted and embodied spirituality and conscious leadership.
00:56:33.890 --> 00:56:37.240 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: So, make sure that you subscribe.
00:56:37.440 --> 00:56:44.240 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: And receive notifications on whichever platform you watch or listen to the expansion room.

00:57:01.920 --> 00:57:05.140 Shervon Laurice | The Expansion Room: Have a wonderful end of your year.
