• Masculine Energy vs Feminine Energy – Sandee Byrd
    Nov 14 2024
    Emotional Elevator with Sandee Byrd In this Episode of Emotional Elevator, Sandee Byrd, the host will talk about balancing masculine energy vs feminine energy and embracing the journey of learning to release control of the masculine energy in my marriage. Join me as I share my story of navigating past traumas, abusive relationships, and infidelities, recognizing how my need to control everything took on a masculine role shaping those experiences. This year has been a powerful journey of self-discovery, leading me to a profound realization: I was seeking independence, strength, and control because I've always had to rely on myself. In the process, I wasn't allowing the masculinity of the men in my life in turn creating a cycle of validation of their masculinity through infidelity or abuse. Today, I'm in a deeply supportive marriage with a partner who is a doer, a provider, and allows me to be feminine in my home. I've learned that I can embody strength and confidence in my career, embracing that masculine energy in my professional life, and still come home to relax into my feminine self. I am teaching other women that we can embody both being confident and strong without taking on the roles of masculine and feminine energy.

  • Let's Break The Silence! – Sandee Byrd
    Nov 7 2024
    Emotional Elevator with Sandee Byrd In this powerful episode of Emotional Elevator, Sandee Byrd, the host will answer the difficult, overdue question: When are we going to break the silence? Silence around trauma—sexual assault, domestic violence, rape, gang rape, incest, molestation—holds victims' captive and allows the cycle to continue, often within our own families. Many of us wait for someone else to speak up, to say the words we’re afraid to voice, but what if the power to change this cycle begins with each of us, right in our own homes? Inspired by the Me Too movement, Sandee will delve into the importance of using my voice, not just publicly, but intimately, within my own family and community. Talking openly about deep traumas isn't easy; the weight of shame and guilt can feel insurmountable. But by facing this silence, we don’t just free ourselves; we liberate future generations from cycles of abuse. Let’s break the silence and give our families the freedom to heal, to reclaim love, joy, and happiness—the emotions we are born with but lose through unspoken trauma. Join me in this episode as I confront the silence that held me hostage and discover the transformative power of speaking up and the voice it gave my family. It’s time to empower ourselves, give a voice to the voiceless, and put an end to generational cycles of trauma.

  • How Do You Measure Success? – Sandee Byrd
    Oct 17 2024
    Emotional Elevator with Sandee Byrd When you think of success what comes to mind? Is it the image of a fancy car, a big house, or financial wealth?

In this episode of Emotional Elevator, Sandee Byrd, the host will explore what success means to me, especially as a woman, and how that definition has shifted over time.
