You probably do this  and may not even recognize it.

There are things that we do on a daily basis, that are actually toxic not just to other people, but to ourselves.

These specific behaviors, patterns & habits can seem so small and have become so engrained in our every day lives and conversation that we have come to label them as acceptable and normal, when in fact they are a product of our insecurities, our self doubt, our unfulfilled selves and lack of true happiness.

Today, I share a personal story of how I once was a toxic person to many people in my life. 

I had friends whom I gave the label "best friend" who were very toxic to me, using personal stories, my vulnerability and intimate conversations against me.

And sadly, I did the same.

I bad mouthed other people, I rained on their parade, I shared their secrets to others, I was always up for a good hate fest, and gossip seemed to be the only thing spoken at happy hour or brunch with "friends".

I wasn't trustworthy, I was two faced, I was fake, I was always acting like I was so concerned when really I just wanted juicy details of someone else's pain in order to feel better about my own life. 

See, I was miserable. Absolutely miserable. I was broken, insecure, unhappy, jealous, pathetic.

I had no idea who I was, what I stood for, what my values were, the morals I stood by, and I had zero boundaries.

What seemed to be the normal martinis and gossip girls night out, was really just a cesspool of all our inner selves -

Misery was loving its company.

These hidden toxic habits keep us held down in our own insecurities and fears. They keep us living in lack and attracting the like.

The longer we practice these habits, the longer we stay stuck - confused, miserable, tired.

Listen now to find out the habits I discovered in my own self and how I recognized them and once I did, how I was able to change them.

Some may seem verrrrrrrry verrrrrry familiar (in Elmer Fudd's voice)
