This episode discusses how accepting oneself, including both positive and negative aspects, can lead to change. Often, people try to change by hating themselves; this is an ineffective and unpleasant way to motivate change. Accepting yourself and acknowledging negative aspects can lead to a more effective motivation for change. Behavior can be counterintuitive and suggests that when you hate yourself, it can lead to a sort of split in personality, where one part is always beating up the other part.
