I’ve been in enough rooms and conversations to know that ‘she loves herself’ usually isn’t the kind of comment you want to welcome. Because what we’ve heard it said about is usually someone who isn’t playing small. Usually we say it about someone who shows confidence in themselves, or who shows up for themselves, or who navigates or moves in the world with some sort of self assurance and that rattles us.

So the words that we use to diminish her are: she loves herself. But what else should she do? Hate herself? Ignore herself? Numb herself out?

In this episode I'm calling for a reframe on this term, including a bit of a lesson from my six year old daughter (look out for a follow up reel from her and I on IG!).
