Season 2 Ep. 8: Good Girl Syndrome is Keeping You Stuck

Good girl syndrome, people pleasing, conditioning, and the ways we stay stuck even when we think we are already free. In this episode of Seen with Serena Kumara, I’m being honest about how I, someone who would never describe herself as a good girl, was still operating like one… and even keeping myself a little stuck. I know, child. I’m shocked too. But good girl conditioning doesn’t always look like what we think it does, and it can show up in the ways we think, make choices, and show up overall. We get into: • The less obvious ways good girl syndrome shows up in women who are already doing liberation work • How what we call responsibility can actually be conditioning in disguise • How we unconsciously seek approval that has nothing to do with any one person • Why self-serving moves can feel morally suspicious • And what we can do about it! This episode is for the woman who does not think this applies to her. Season 2 Episode 8 of Seen with Serena Kumara.

Season 2 Ep. 7: The Beauty of Between

The liminal phase, finding peace in transition, and trusting what’s still becoming… before it all comes together. In this episode of Seen with Serena Kumara, I’m talking about the in-between. The phase where we have been intentional and clear, but it still feels like nothing is moving. I’m breaking down what the liminal phase actually is, why it can be so hard for us, but why it’s sacred anyway. We get into: • Why the in-between is not empty, even when it feels that way • Why sitting in uncertainty is harder than it should be and where that actually comes from • What happens to our sense of self when we are no longer who we were and not yet who we are becoming • What was lost when ritual was removed from transition and why bringing it back matters • How I have personally learned to navigate the liminal with a little less force and panic This is an episode for anyone who is becoming something they cannot fully see yet.

Season 2 Ep6: I Don't Have The Answers, Sway

Alignment, co-creation, and finding my balance… I don’t have all the answers. And honestly, I’m becoming more and more okay with that. In this episode of Seen with Serena Kumara, I’m talking honestly about being in the middle of finding balance. I’m sharing a few of the questions I’m still living with. We get into: • Finding the real balance between doing and being in manifestation • Why being a control freak can make manifestation tough • The real tension between wanting ease and taking risks • And more… This is an honest reflection on finding harmony… even while still figuring it out.

Season 2 Ep 4: Receiving is a Superpower

In this episode of Seen with Serena Kumara, we’re talking about the energy of receiving and why receptivity matters for creating more ease. Receptivity affects what we allow life to bring us and how we respond when support, opportunity, or abundance shows up. This conversation explores the subtle ways blocked receptivity can show up, why more of us struggle with receiving than we realize, and what it can look like to open our channel and expand our capacity to receive.
