The Friend Within: How to Be Kind to Yourself When It Gets Real


Listen Later

What if you talked to yourself and treated yourself like someone you cared about?

In this episode, I’m talking about what self-compassion really looks like...especially after you become aware of something hard in yourself. We’ll unpack the urge to fix things fast, the shame that sneaks in when we mess up, and what it actually means to treat yourself like a friend.

You’ll hear reflections on:

  • What to do after self-awareness hits

  • Why rushing to fix can hold us back

  • How to sit with flaws without spiraling

  • What “the friend within” sounds like...and how to trust them

If you’re the kind of person who holds it together for everyone else but struggles quietly on the inside... this one's for you.

Until next time, keep grappling with the thoughts that matter, and keep looking forward.
