69. Rethinking Discipline: From Self-Control to Self-Trust
Episode 69
Thursday, 8 October, 2026
Please share your thoughts about how you felt about the episode and/or podcast!What comes to mind when you hear the word discipline?For many of us, discipline has become synonymous with willpower, productivity, pushing through, staying consistent, and doing what we “should” do—even when we're exhausted, overwhelmed, or simply no longer aligned with what we need.But where did this definition come from? And what if we gave ourselves permission to question it?In this episode of Herstory is Medicine, we're exploring the history and evolution of the word discipline—from its roots in teaching, learning, and training to the ways we've come to associate it with control, obedience, punishment, and productivity.We'll also explore what happens when our definition of discipline collides with our bodies, our nervous systems, and the realities of different seasons of life—especially motherhood.Because the discipline you needed in one season may not be the discipline you need now.✨Maybe discipline isn't always about doing more, pushing harder, or forcing yourself to follow through.Maybe sometimes discipline looks like rest.Setting a boundary.Listening to your body.Keeping a promise to yourself.Creating supportive structure.Knowing when to stop.And learning how to return when you've fallen away.This is an invitation to ask yourself:What does discipline need to mean for me in this season of my life?And perhaps even more importantly:Can I practice discipline without abandoning myself in the process?Let's rethink discipline—not as punishment or perfection, but as a practice of self-trust, intention, and alignment.If you are feeling called to work together and would like more information about my services through Nourish Inc, I invite you to apply to work with me using the link below.
