There is a saying that we as humans are the harshest critics to ourselves when it comes to seeing and seeking self-value. Adding in external voices from others, it can get a bit much and cloud our judgement in how we see ourselves.

But we also have to remember that we are also our own biggest cheerleaders too. If we can’t stand up for ourselves when we need it the most or see our own worth. The reality is that sometimes no one will come save us but ourselves.

So today we wanted to share some moments where we’ve questioned our own worth, how we’ve worked through our struggles when external validation can be louder than self worth and how we worked through to understand our value again. We both uncover why valuing ourselves more can lead to a more fulfilling, balanced life, and how we can start shifting our mindset to do so.

We know that there are days where it can be a struggle and we all have our phases and we’re here to say that it’s okay. We’ve been through it too.

Hopefully this episode brings some great perspectives and some inspiration for you to keep going and to keep believing in yourself. Even if other people don’t. We’re here for you!

Does everything HAVE to have a reason or is it a choice that we put a reason behind something that’s occurred and how does this tie into mindset?

Join us as we also bring in different perspectives from different cultures and philosophers who’ve put these concepts into place for centuries! Think:

Letting go and moving on, are they one of the same or is there one you have to go through first before you can do the other. Can we move forward in life without fully letting go of the past?

Throughout our lives, we are often faced with situations, decisions and people where we will have to let them go or they let us go. Whether dealing with a breakup, a major life change, or simply trying to grow. These are events in our lives that teach us our understandings of processing the concept of letting go and moving on.

So today we are going to go through our personal stories where we’ve let go, discuss the differences with moving on and also talk about the process.
