Stages of Commitment Today we’re talking about the stages of commitment. Commitment is one of the three main ingredients in a strong relationship with yourself, so if you didn’t listen to last week’s episode, go back to Recipe for a Strong Relationship. I’ll link it below. What’s interesting about commitment is that it doesn’t just show up all at once. There are stages that build before you even realize you’re committed. First is the curious stage.This is when you hear about something for the first time. It’s casual. You’re thinking, “hmm, that’s interesting.” Then comes the interest stage.Now it’s more personal. You start thinking, “I’d like to do that.” You look into it, imagine what it would be like, and this is where desire grows. Then comes the decision stage—this is the ALL IN moment.It can feel impulsive, like you decided quickly, but you didn’t. You built up to it. This is where you decide: this is for me. And finally, commitment.This is where you keep going. Even when you don’t feel like it. Quitting is not an option. Commitment doesn’t always feel exciting. Sometimes it feels simple. Sometimes it feels hard. But you stay with it. What helps the most is revisiting the earlier stages. Don’t wait until it feels hard. Do a weekly check-in. Ask yourself:Why was I interested in this?What made me decide?How do I want to show up this week? And here’s the key—commitment grows with love, not pressure. You don’t have to force it. When you support yourself, commitment becomes easier to access. Click here to schedule a Consultation with Christie. Join us in Authentic Confidence Reset to feel yourself again.

It’s the wrong question. You are creating new proof. That’s where you direct your focus. What You’ll Learn on this Episode: How to reset when you question yourself. What growth is.

Keep Going Today we’re talking about how to keep going. And it starts with letting one big question go: What if I can’t do it? We’re going to let that go—with love. When you ask that question, your brain immediately starts finding proof. It’s doing its job. It will show you all the reasons why you can’t. But why go in that direction? Pause. Take a deep breath. Interrupt it. You can even physically look in a different direction—just to break the loop. You don’t have to entertain that question. Instead, ask:What are all the reasons I am doing this? Decide you’re all in. That gives your brain something useful to work with. No one starts knowing exactly how to do something. Think about an Olympian. They don’t come out knowing every step. At some point, they decide—this is what I want, and I’m going to figure it out. That’s it. And even along the way, the work is never wasted. You build relationships, endurance, discipline, trust in yourself. Those are real results. Growth isn’t just achieving the goal—it’s becoming someone who can handle new emotions. Fear, embarrassment, pressure, excitement. When you get familiar with those, you grow. Letting go of “I can’t” is choosing to keep going anyway. You might not have all the answers yet—but you’re not quitting. You’ll feel things. You’ll figure things out. “I can’t” is optional. So is believing you can. If both are available—why not choose the one that gets you where you want to go? Click here to schedule a Consultation with Christie. Join us in Authentic Confidence Reset to feel yourself again.

How to Love Yourself Hi beautiful, today we’re talking about how to love yourself. There are a lot of definitions out there, but I’m going to define it the way I teach it—the concepts, what it looks like in action, and what changes. At the most basic level, loving yourself is knowing the value of your human life. Your value is given. When you don’t see that, it shows up in very specific ways. You become critical of yourself. You question what people think about you. You tell yourself things like “I’m not good enough,” “I should know this,” or “something’s wrong with me.” That doesn’t stay in your head—it impacts how you live. You may hold back in conversations, leave situations you want to be in, compare yourself to others, or feel underlying pressure and anxiety. Here’s the good news: all of that can change. When you love yourself, you stop putting yourself down. You take care of your mental health. You don’t hold yourself back from things you want to do. You’re not focused on what everyone else is doing—you’re clear on what you’re doing. Your relationship with yourself is your filter for everything else. So if that doesn’t change, nothing else really changes—even if your circumstances do. Loving yourself isn’t about becoming perfect. It’s about having your own back. You build the skill to stop beating yourself up, make decisions, feel your emotions, set boundaries, and love what you already have. From that place, creating more becomes fun—not pressure. That’s when goals become something that adds to your life, not something you chase to feel good enough. Click here to schedule a Consultation with Christie.
