Transcripts

Unknown:

Hello, This episode is inspired by Mark, we had a quick

Unknown:

chat on facebook, and he inspired me to make an episode

Unknown:

about the black sheep in the family. Thank you, Mark. Here we

Unknown:

go.

Unknown:

Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm your

Unknown:

host Aurora, and I'm very happy to be spending some time with

Unknown:

you today. It is Sunday, April 11. fresh snow out here. But

Unknown:

it's sunny and I know the snow is gonna melt here very soon.

Unknown:

All right, let's dive into today's topic, black sheep, the

Unknown:

black sheep of the family. Do you know that term that

Unknown:

expression? Can you maybe even resonate with it? Have you been

Unknown:

living as a black sheep and your family for the

Unknown:

for the last couple years? Well, then welcome this episode is for

Unknown:

you.

Unknown:

What is a black sheep I feel a black sheep is a person who is

Unknown:

living on a different level of awareness than the rest of the

Unknown:

family. They usually feel like they don't really fit in. They

Unknown:

feel like everybody else is kind of flocking together, agreeing

Unknown:

with each other's opinions and lifestyles. But the black sheep

Unknown:

experiences live differently, maybe on a deeper level, maybe

Unknown:

on a very different level. And as a child, if you feel that

Unknown:

it's a very painful experience, a very painful situation to be

Unknown:

in because all we want us to be long and to feel understood and

Unknown:

to be part of a bigger group. Right. And if you sense that,

Unknown:

you have to kind of fake it, you have to put so much effort into

Unknown:

it. In order to feel accepted in order to feel understood and

Unknown:

heard, then it is a painful experience you're making. And it

Unknown:

is your experience. And it's very difficult to explain to

Unknown:

others. Those children are usually labeled with ADHD, or

Unknown:

they're difficult to handle. Or they have to be sent to boarding

Unknown:

school because they're so

Unknown:

energetic, and they have to be away from the family in order to

Unknown:

find themselves. So as you can see, as you can listen or hear

Unknown:

those people who feel like the black sheep of the family go

Unknown:

through very

Unknown:

painful, emotional experiences early on in their lives. And it

Unknown:

shapes the way they feel about themselves and how confident

Unknown:

they are.

Unknown:

It's very

Unknown:

complicated to feel like you don't really have anybody to

Unknown:

look up to and the people you live with you love but you can

Unknown:

really relate on deeper levels. Sometimes you also feel like the

Unknown:

stick in their steering wheel or in their wheels. I know you you

Unknown:

know what I mean? You kind of like to steer up shit, you'd

Unknown:

like to make people aware of their behavior. And then they

Unknown:

flock together even more and then you feel even more

Unknown:

isolated. I feel a lot of times the black sheep is the one who

Unknown:

cuts through the bullshit. The person who sees manipulative and

Unknown:

destructive

Unknown:

behavior and calls people out. And they live so much in their

Unknown:

little world in their little bubble of codependency and abuse

Unknown:

is normal life that you feel even crazier about yourself, and

Unknown:

they make you feel crazy. But today I want to tell you what

Unknown:

is important to see on the other side, when you're with yourself.

Unknown:

You are breaking out of the family's patterns. So to say you

Unknown:

are a pioneer. You got to bring your family to a different level

Unknown:

of awareness and you will open up a new world to them and you

Unknown:

don't need them to be an approval. You don't need them.

Unknown:

To be okay with your decisions, you make them for yourself and

Unknown:

for your family, maybe you want to start one day, or your

Unknown:

community. That's also a very hard reality to face that you

Unknown:

are one who will early on realize shit, I can't wait for

Unknown:

my family's approval. Otherwise, I'm gonna get nowhere with my

Unknown:

life. Yeah, it's

Unknown:

very difficult and painful to realize you make one step into

Unknown:

the direction that feels good for you that feels like you can

Unknown:

go in a direction of expansion. And your family is like, No, no,

Unknown:

no, no, no, this is not gonna go well. And this is not awesome.

Unknown:

And we don't want you to do this. And then you don't have to

Unknown:

deal with your own insecurities, but with their limiting beliefs

Unknown:

on top of it, too. But I tell you what it is so worth it, and

Unknown:

you will go your path. And with the intention to serve other

Unknown:

people to do good out there, nothing can go wrong, you can be

Unknown:

wrong. If you choose a path of love and compassion for other

Unknown:

people, it might not resonate with your family's values. But

Unknown:

that's totally fine. This is evolution, you're stepping out

Unknown:

of that frame, and you're creating something new. And one

Unknown:

day maybe, but don't wait for it, they might look at you and

Unknown:

amazement and be so proud of you. And it might take some

Unknown:

time, it might take them to see that other people are praising

Unknown:

you and lifting you up. And then they will follow and be like,

Unknown:

Oh, yeah, this is my son, this is my daughter reraised them and

Unknown:

we're so proud of them. But it might take some time, as I say,

Unknown:

and you can't wait for it. So if you identify as the black sheep

Unknown:

of your family, have compassion with them, have the big heart

Unknown:

and see that they're only operating in their frame of

Unknown:

believes and values. And they're doing fine. But you don't have

Unknown:

to sit in that same pool, you can go out there, discover new

Unknown:

things, and make this world a better place. And

Unknown:

maybe you feel good and calling yourself a black sheep, but I

Unknown:

feel it's it's more of a negative

Unknown:

label. So maybe you can see yourself as the unicorn or the

Unknown:

butterfly or the pioneer

Unknown:

of the family. And then you will feel better about yourself too.

Unknown:

And then feeling better with yourself again, and making peace

Unknown:

with that painful situation that you made early on with your

Unknown:

family, you can make peace with them too, you can see that their

Unknown:

limiting beliefs are okay and they protected you or inspired

Unknown:

you maybe to some point early on. And don't judge them. Don't

Unknown:

attack them, don't blame them because you are responsible for

Unknown:

the steps you take. And you don't need to wait for their

Unknown:

approval. And again, if your intentions are to do good out

Unknown:

there, they have no reasons to hold back. And there might be a

Unknown:

little bit of a time of separation between you and them

Unknown:

for a while. But you guys can come back together. And we can

Unknown:

show empathy and a big heart for them and reunite with them. But

Unknown:

go your path. Thank you so much for listening to the Borealis

Unknown:

experience. This episode was extremely important to me and my

Unknown:

heart and my soul. Because I've been on that path. And I was

Unknown:

able to liberate myself and feel like a little unicorn now or a

Unknown:

butterfly or a pioneer. And I feel my family is coming around

Unknown:

a little bit and show that they are a little proud of me.

Unknown:

They're not 100% there, they still don't 100% understand what

Unknown:

I'm doing here. But it is fine. I know I'm doing good. I knew no

Unknown:

I'm putting

Unknown:

vibes out there that help other people that inspire other

Unknown:

people. And this is all I want. So take really good care of

Unknown:

yourself and think about this labor of a black sheep and maybe

Unknown:

reframe your attitude around it and know that you're not a

Unknown:

victim. You are needed out here. We need to see out there and

Unknown:

playing and shining and everything will be fine. Maybe

Unknown:

not right away but soon enough
