Episode 50: Loving Yourself

“You’re such a great boss”, “I respect you”, “You’re so beautiful”.

Ever hear these sentences and your immediate thought is, “I wonder what’s wrong with THEM?” or “Oh, they’re just being nice…”.

When we don’t love ourselves we will never believe what we hear, even when it’s true for the other person.

Instead, our brains will find evidence for why YOU are right instead.

Loving yourself is a necessary skill everyone should develop if you want to live a life where you not only GIVE love, but you equally RECEIVE love as well.

Listen to this episode as I share common examples of why it feels like we love ourselves even when we don’t, and how we’ve been conditioned to always seek love outside of ourselves.
