Self Love Lounge

Healing can be destructive especially as you feel called to revisit memories you've learned to resist as form of protection. The burning desire for internal peace comes with waves of accepting the bed of lies you can no longer revive. Annalynne McCord welcomes us to a world where happiness could become a lifestyle as we start to unravel our spiritual truth by questioning

• Why are we here?
• Why do we matter?
• WHY

And the truth is, you’ll find it most when you are ready to find it whether it's in this episode today or in 5 years from now. This episode is for those who understands and love unconditionally.

Sometimes we may pretend to be somebody else and somehow we forget who we truly are.  Now, when we do start dating or experience heartbreak, we may minimize ourselves for the convenience of others. Nadia Jagessar who runs her own event management company named Euphoria, and who's become a fan favourite throughout the first season of Netflix's newest reality dating series "Indian Matchmaking," and I talk about the importance of taking up space and never settling for anything less than what we know we truly deserve.

Burnouts happen to all of us especially when we avoid being human for too long. We try to do everything all at once which is great but impossible. Stress takes a toll on our bodies, our friendships, our relationships, and our general happiness. So if you do not pick a day to just relax and just be, then Marinna and I will pick it for you in this episode.

 Everyone has lost sleep, by overthinking about their past, their present and even their future as if they could rewrite it all over again. Most of us are very hard on ourselves and still learning to forgive ourselves each night and re-committing each morning as part of a self-care practice. If you want to fall in love with taking care of yourself, then this episode is a hug from me to you.

 You've questioned yourself before, related to this idea of holding space. You seem to do it naturally for others, by showing up for them but what does it mean to do it for yourself?   If someone isn't able to hold space for you, find someone who will. If you can't do it for yourself, do it for us. Because we want to see the real you. If you would like to hold space for yourself then self-love with Diana and me.

If something feels off, it is. Don't convince yourself otherwise. Everyone in your life has the potential of betraying you. They may leave. They may pass away. They may cheat. They may lie. We can’t count on anybody 100 percent but it does stress the importance of being able to trust the one person we know we can count on: ourselves. We all feel stuck, anxious, and disconnected at times with all the uncertainty not only in our personal life but with what’s happening in 2020. Our guest Christine Turley and I remind you that if your instincts led you here, then this episode is for you.

The thing about stepping outside of your comfort zone is that some are born with a passionate drive - it’s like everywhere they go they just meet the right people, say or do the right things effortlessly. For others ( myself included!), it doesn’t come so naturally - Not for the lack of confidence but rather because it’s hard to know where to even start. If you’re ready to show up in every moment confidently and authentically in who you are, this one is for you!
