Unlock Throat Chakra Communication Through Childlike Joy {Ep 235}

How often do you let your inner child have a say. Not to derail your life, but to bring back the feelings that make your voice feel real? Today I’m digging into the Throat Chakra and what communication actually means when it’s more than just talking. I explore how childlike joy, freedom, and excitement can become fuel for clearer expression, whether that comes through your voice, your writing, or your hands creating art. I also share why your truth is yours alone, and how simple “I” language can help you speak with more honesty and less stress.

I go inward too, because internal communication matters just as much as what you post or say out loud. Self-talk lands in the body, even when you think you’re joking, and that’s where awareness and reframing can change everything. You’ll hear a real-time reminder of how grounding shifts your energy fast, especially when your words get tangled or your nervous system kicks into overdrive.

Then I bring it into business communication for women in business who want to show up with confidence and integrity. Your business has its own identity and energy because you birthed it. You can even connect with the “inner child” stage of your business to access the feelings you need without letting that younger energy run the show. I talk about responding to trolls from a calm, heart-centred place, making clean choices with coaches and frameworks, and marketing your offers honestly without pushing pain points or exaggerating outcomes.

How often do you let your inner child talk? Welcome to Tuesday Talks with Darlene. Today I want to talk about your inner child in the throat chakra. Now, as you know, the throat chakra is about communication. That is its main focus. Yet there's so much more to it. What is your inner child? It could be whatever you feel is right for you. For me, it can actually come through as different ages throughout my childhood. There's actually a couple of different ages, and for it just feels so cool to be able to let my inner

child out. And it, you know, people might say, Oh, you know, I'm childish, all that kind of stuff. Well, I want to be, I want to be childlike, not childish, it's childlike. When you remember, you know, just being free. I mean, for some of us, you know, I don't know how many of you, childhood may not have been the best thing either. There would have been some moments though that would have been amazing. And that that's for me, there were some moments like my sister and I were talking on the phone the other night, and we both remembered something. I was like, oh my goodness, how cool was that? And this is what it's about. It's about remembering and allowing the feeling of what you're feeling at that time to come through and communicate from there. Now, you're not going to communicate through your inner child all the time, of course. It's when you want to feel those emotions. It might have been joy, it might have been absolute excitement or whatever it is that was coming through at that time. That's what you want to communicate, and that's how you can tap in. You can tap into the memory of that and bring that through. Now, today I'm going to talk about personal and business because we're business women. We actually are both. Now, of course, if you've been following me for ages, you will know that I talk about um your business as having its own identity, its own energy, because you've bursted it, birthed it. That's why I'm talking about both of them. I'm talking about your, you, and your business. Now, the throat normally, well, it can be, I won't say normally. What has come through for if you read books and that is blue is the throat chakra. Now, I do, I have a special program. Special,

Expression Through Art And Writing

SPEAKER_00 3:24

I have a program that I created that takes people through their chakras, and a lot of people discover things differently. It may not actually be blue for you, and that's really cool. That's absolutely cool. Whatever you feel is right for you is perfect because it's your body. Now, what else can be in the throat chakra? As we as I've said, it's communication, is the main thing. Communication, it could be expression, and I'm not just talking about talking, I'm actually talking about expression. It could be that you communicate through your hands, like from your throat, throat chakra. So, what you do is you bring in the feeling to your throat chakra, and then you allow that feeling to go into your hands, and you might create art, like you can see I do. That is one aspect. You might write, that might be one way that you actually express yourself, and you may want your inner child to come through that. Like today, um, after I've recorded some episodes, I am going to be doing some painting, and I'm going to allow my inner child to come through because it's so important for me to embrace those feelings, those amazing feelings that I did have through childhood, and that's what I mean by expression. So, communication is the overall theme of the throat throat chakra, and then you have other spec other aspects like expression. It could be expressing your truth. Now remember, it's your truth, not anybody else's truth, your truth. You cannot speak for others because you'll notice when I say things like me, I don't say we. I don't say we because I was taught during the diploma counseling, I can only speak for myself, I can never speak for anyone else, and that is an aspect of the throat chakra as well. Is remembering that you're only talking about yourself, you're not talking about anyone else. And remember that this communication is

Truth And Self Talk Awareness

SPEAKER_00 5:35

internal and external. And you might be going, hang on, internal, think about your thoughts are internal. What you actually say to yourself is internal. You might even say it externally, you might go, Oh man, that was a dumb thing to do. That's you communicating to yourself. And remember, your body doesn't understand that you know you might be maybe joking or something, or you might actually be really negative about yourself. I've done that, and occasionally I still do. Now I have the awareness that I can actually understand. Hang on, no, that wasn't right. Okay, let's reframe that and let's my let let's talk to my body and let it know what I was meaning and turn it around and reframe it. Excuse me. And it's also confidence. How much confidence do you have in yourself? And we're talking personally, how much confidence do you have in yourself to speak your truth? This is where I always talk about working with the lower chakras first before you go to do any communication because you want your foundations, you want your stability, you want your security, because you're going to communicate that. If you're secure in what you're going to communicate, that's going to come through. Excuse me. And you also have a choice. You have a choice to actually say something or not say something. That is one thing

Grounding Before You Speak Online

SPEAKER_00 7:11

I've learned about social media over the years. A lot of the time you'll see, like, there's a lot of trolls out there, and I will call them trolls. There's a lot of trolls out there that just write nasty things. Now, a lot of the time they wouldn't say that to your face if they if it if they could see you physically. Get my words, isn't it? Interesting. I'm talking about the throat chakra, and I'm getting my words a bit mixed up. This is what happens. It's all okay. Just remember, and actually, that's just what's come through right now. Remember, before you speak, you want to actually do what's called grounding, which means that you're 100% physically and energetically on this earth. And so, what I'm doing is I'm just doing some deep breathing, and I'm reminding my body that it's sitting in a chair, that it's got its feet on the ground, and that I'm connecting to Mother Earth. And you can see the change, or you can probably even hear, I mean, you can hear the change in my voice. It's different. This is why working with your lower chakras is so important before you communicate, because you can hear the see, click on the difference. There's a huge difference in my voice, and that is what you want to do before you communicate. And I was talking about trolls on social media, and I was talking about having the choice of whether you actually want to react to them or not, and not react, respond to them and comment. I talk about how reaction is more of an emergency thing, and responding is more where you come from a calm, heart-centered place. And I do say heart-centered because when you when you learn to breathe and relax, your heart opens up. And if you go to respond to these trolls, you're coming from a place that is different. A lot of people have noticed when they respond, they actually react. They don't respond, they actually react. They see a comment and they immediately comment back. And you can see, or you can, well, you can see the words that they say. You can also feel the energy in the words. Like when you read that, you'll feel it in your body. That's why I'm doing a lot of unsubscribing, unfollowing, and even blocking certain people because I don't want to take that energy on. If I read that comment, I'm taking that energy on, and I don't want to do that because then I'm going to communicate that. Remember, you have a choice. You have a choice to express your wisdom if you want to or not. Now, when it comes to our beautiful business, and I'm getting teary because I love my business so much. Like I love it, even though I'm studying and I'm not doing as much on my business, it's okay because I really love it. I love it so much. Again, this is where communication comes through, and it's particularly particularly whatever word, it is directly related to mainly your clients. It's also related to what you put out there. As you can see, I'm in my fifth

Business Communication And Identity

SPEAKER_00 10:42

year, actually five and a half years of this podcast, or maybe longer when this episode comes out, who knows? Um, so it's you know what you're communicating, and it's you know what you put out podcast episodes, posts, blobs, your website, where wherever, whatever you do, that's communication, and then it's communication with your clients, and then if you work with other people, like you might um have employed people, then you work with them, communicate with them. How are you actually communicating? It is the same as personal, you want to be in the right space to be able to communicate all of this. Now, when it comes to business, because we are talking about the inner child, you don't want to communicate through the inner child because the when you think about business, children don't work in business. Now, you know, you might go, but some of them do, yes, some of them do. When it comes to business, what I'm talking about, children shouldn't be there, they shouldn't be there in the business. You want the feelings, though. Remember how when I was talking about personal, I was talking about the feelings. If you're struggling to communicate, go within and talk to the inner child of the business. I'm not talking about your inner child, I'm talking about the inner child of your business. Because remember, you birthed this business, it is growing, it is maturing, which means it goes through those stages you went through as a child. Go in, talk to that inner child of your business. What feelings do you want to embrace from that inner child to bring through? Do you want the confidence of that child, whatever age when you go in, whatever age it is, look at it. What is it telling you? And then maybe that's how you want to communicate. Because remember, when you're communicating, you're communicating your business's energy, and that's where it comes to identity. What identity does your business have? My identity of my business is mainly wisdom, maturity, and yet there's that creativity and fun. That's the identity. Remember, when you communicate, also be open to others' ideas and thoughts. It doesn't mean you have to take them on, that does not mean anything. Just be open though, because you never know the wisdom you can get from other people. If it doesn't feel right for you, that's fine. And in business, as far as I'm concerned, there is no competition. A lot of people go, oh, you know, when you're doing things, go and have a look at your competition. As far as I'm concerned, there is no competition. Competition means that you're trying to fight for space. There is how many billions of people on this earth you do not need to fight for space. You are your niche, which means people will be attracted to you. Why do you need to fight for that? In here, remember how personally I talked about choices? In here, it's about choices as well. Can you communicate your choices clearly? And what's coming through right now is I'm actually tapping into um energies, my business energy, as well as guides, elementals, etc. And what's coming through is this is it's for a few people actually. When you are working with your coach, then you have choices. You do not have to follow their framework. There are many coaches out there that go, if you follow my framework, you will be successful. Well, guess what? You're different to them. Their framework

Coaching Choices And Integrity

SPEAKER_00 14:54

may not match what you want to do. And these choices, you want to communicate them clearly and with integrity. And integrity is about being honest. So be honest with your coach and go, I don't want to do that. I don't ever want to get on video, or I don't want to do a podcast. They might be going, you know, write a book or do a podcast, whatever. And you might go, that's not something I want to do now, or even maybe you never want to do it in the future. Communicate this. Remember, communicate as a response, not as a reaction. And in here, it's explaining our why. You know, why did we start business? Why have we got this program? The reason is our niche, the people that we want to attract, want to know more. It is not now, okay, this is a program I've got, and they'll go, oh, yeah, great, no worries. You want to learn to communicate why this program is so important, why it actually will support them. And that's not about pushing their pain points. That's one thing I really dislike seeing. I say it all the time, where people push their pain points. If you really want to be successful, then you would do this program. If you really wanted to heal, you'd do this program. You know, what's it costing you not to do this? That to me is just that is not integrity for me. And here, this is also about expressing our dreams. You don't have to actually express your dreams to other people, it's expressing our dreams to the business and to yourself as well. Isn't it interesting how different parts come through with our communication? And remember, yes, I am talking about the inner child. I'm talking about the feelings and that of the beautiful inner child. There's some things where um, and I'm going to talk about the opposite of what some of the things I was talking about. One of them is actually being dishonest with yourself. You might be communicating something, and you think, oh, you know, this is my truth, and your whole body is going, no, this is actually not true. You're being dishonest here. And one of them is you're communicating your program and you're being dishonest about the outcomes. You're being dishonest about what it can actually really do for someone. Just be aware of these things. I'm not saying, oh, how bad are you? I'm saying just be aware of what is coming up. And it's also you know, being dishonest with yourself and others. And here, if you're um not able to communicate effectively, you may not want to

Honest Marketing And Listening Within

SPEAKER_00 17:50

post selfies, you may not want to do um videos or anything like this. If you don't, then go in, talk to your throat chakra, talk to the throat chakra of the business, and talk to the inner child of the business. What is going on?
