You ever feel like things seem to be better back then, or perhaps things will be better in the future? Ever constantly look to the past/future because the NOW and PRESENT just feels like something is MISSING/LACKING? I try not to operate from this space, but I fall into the trap of thinking that what I had back then was better than now, or that I still need to do so much in order to BE something or BE somewhere. It's a trap to think that I'll feel better once I get there. Well, I may feel better, but it'll be temporary. And we don't want to settle for temporary happiness, only to end up needing things to change and to be different ... again... 

So I remind myself and I remind my listeners to learn to love and appreciate the step that we are in RIGHT NOW. As I'm making moves and progressing towards my goals, I am alright. I am happy, I am excited, I am confident here in THIS step. And I appreciate the opportunity to work on myself.

As much as I don't want to showcase and admit that I slipped into depression once again, there is an even stronger sense for me to do it. I am human, and I choose to embrace every single experience I go through. I know that by being vulnerable and open, I am helping others around me, and I am giving permission for them to be open and vulnerable. The other way is to resist, neglect and suppress our experiences, including the depressive episodes that we feel as humans. 

I wanted to share my experience with you all so you can know that you are not alone and that the sun always come out after the rain. I promise :). Sending love to each and everyone who is listening!

I really enjoyed recording this podcast. I've been the toxic one, I've been with toxic partners, I've tolerated toxic friendships so everything I said came straight from experience, and it came from my soul. I know there so many of us out there who can relate to this topic!

Why do we do tolerate toxicity although it kills us, makes us feel so uncomfortable because it's so unstable, it's unhealthy and it brings us down? Seriously? Because, truthfully speaking, if we believe in our worth, then we understand that we deserve only that which is healthy, supportive, loving and amazing for us. We deserve that which will help us grow into the best versions of ourselves and we cut off anyone who drags us down with their own unresolved bitterness. I've found that the more love I give to myself, the less I need it from outside sources, especially those who are completely un-deserving of it. 

You get to love someone AND be away from them. It is not your responsibility to change someone. And they will only change if they want to. Take care of yourself, and remember what you're worth. CUT THE TOXICITY OUT because I guarantee you, YOU DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER. Free up space so BETTER can come in! <3

Ouuu this is a big one! I grew up as a first generation Asian American, born and raised in California by parents who were born and raised in Vietnam. Problems came up in the household a lot of times due to the clash between what I'm taught to believe and embrace by my parents and culture versus what actually sits right with who I am at the core.

To be in this position is to truly to be stuck between a rock and a hard place. Many times, the questions beg, "Do I satisfy my culture and forsake myself? Or do I forsake my culture to embrace who I am authentically?" SERIOUSLY, WHAT IS THE ANSWER?!

Listen/Watch to learn more about how I've learned to embrace myself authentically while also respecting my culture.

People are going to judge me everywhere, all the time. What do I do with this information? Either I fear everyone's judgment and try to control how I look to them, to "ensure" they'll like me, OR I show up as myself, authentically regardless of what anyone thinks, feels or says. :) There is SO MUCH POWER in choosing the latter! 

It's a work in progress, but damn this new way of thinking brings so much freedom! I remind myself that I always have a choice!

What does it mean to love myself?

It's so easy to love myself when I feel good, when I look good, when I feel like I'm on top of the world & when I feel unstoppable.

But... What about when I feel shitty, when I'm down in the dumps, and when I'm reminded of all the ugly parts about myself.. What then? 

It's a work in progress, but I'm learning to love even these parts about myself. Parts that I am so good at resisting, parts I try to push away and TRY SO HARD to make "disappear". Because let's face it - who wants to even be AWARE of the ugly parts about them, let alone to try and LOVE them?

Well, I'm committed to loving myself, unconditionally. This, to me, means to love and accept myself for all the good and amazing that I am, as well as to love and accept all the ugly and undesirable parts. 

Kristine, I fucking love you.

We all know what it feels like to fall off track. We've all been there. So we understand how hard it can be to get back to it!! Our mind & ego plays tricks on us and it's got us feeling like we don't deserve to get back to trying! But punch that sucker in the neck because YES WE DO. We deserve to, and actually have everything it takes to get back on track, and it do it BIGGER AND BETTER than we've ever done it! 

The future is so exciting! What if this time, you're going to blow everything out the water?! What if?!

Jealousy and envy is a feeling that I'm sure no one wants to feel. I, for sure, don't. As a matter of fact, I hate it when it comes up. But I remind myself that I'm human and that it's a natural tendency to compare myself to others. Whenever I feel "less than", I find it very easy to begin to envy the person "that made me" feel less than. First off, no one is making you feel anything. Anything that comes up is already inside you. It just took that person to show you what it is you feel like you are lacking. It's no one's fault, but instead it's a great way for you to see that you have "a thing" that needs attention. In this case, it's envy for whatever you feel like you are lacking. Truth is, we're all enough and powerful and amazing, and we don't have to compare ourselves to have to feel like we are "doing alright." Turn that envy into inspiration instead, because whatever it is that you're envious about, you can turn it into INSPIRATION to be better, do better, achieve better. :D If they have it, it means you can have it too! Just remember.. Just because they are "winning", it does NOT mean you are "losing". Change that narrative, brother! Change that narrative, sister!
