S4E84 Thoughts Become Things with Sandy Johnston

Real Talk Real Women with Sandy Johnston, founder of The Key to Be Free Transformation Services and the host of the Tiaras Tears and Triumph podcast.

Summary of this episode

Sandy shares her story of being in an abusive relationship for many years and how she eventually left it. She speaks about how it's easy to become a victim of circumstances and how she was walking on eggshells in her relationship.

Sandy also mentioned the importance of putting on your own oxygen mask first before helping others. She also mentioned the importance of being intentional and aware of the flow of life to go with the flow.

Sandy mentions red flags and how, when you enter a new relationship, it's easy to put on rose-colored glasses, making everything look okay even when it's not.

The kind of abuse that Sandy experienced included being stalked by her ex-partner, and jealousy. After dismissing many of the red flags in her relationship, it took her about 10 attempts to successfully leave her abusive relationship.

Her shift from victim to victory occurred when her ex-partner attempted to blow up her house with her and the kids in it, for real. She fled with her children, changing their names and cutting off all contact with family and friends.

Thankfully, her dangerous ex-partner is under an indefinite intervention order and served two terms in jail. Sandy learned the hard way to put safety first.

Manifestation

Sandy believes in the power of manifestation and shared a recent story of how she was gifted front-row tickets to a concert! Manifestation works best when you are curious and ask “what if” instead of coming from a place of desperation and need.

Sandy recommends writing down a list of what you don’t want in order to uncover what you do want. Trusting yourself again is a journey and Sandy encourages rediscovering your own worth. We all come into the world with the same worth and should value ourselves.

Developing a relationship with ourselves is important and can help us tremendously through adversities in life.

We are not guaranteed what lies ahead, but valuing ourselves can help us be our best selves and give all we can to help others. — Sandy Johnston
