Ep 143: The Love You've Been Withholding


Listen Later

You show up with love and support for everyone in your life–but when it comes to how you treat yourself, that kindness disappears. So many brilliant women fall into this pattern. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. 

What would change if you gave yourself the same patience, encouragement, and compassion that you offer everyone else? In this episode, I talk about how to hold space for your own humanity and learn how to truly love yourself. You'll hear the reasons why we withhold love from ourselves, and we'll explore ways to break this cycle and improve your relationship with yourself.

Love isn't something you have to earn, wait for, or be perfect enough to deserve. It's like a radio station that is constantly broadcasting–you just have to tune in. And the more you treat yourself with love, the more you have to give to others. When you're cruel to yourself and running on empty, it just makes it harder to show up for others. 

You deserve the love that you've been withholding. And remember, learning to love yourself is not selfish–it's how you become a favorite version of you.
