In this episode, we dive into the topic of values, what they are, how they shape who we are, and how understanding them can completely change the way we make decisions and move through life. We often talk about “values,” but rarely stop to define what they truly mean to us. Together, we explore what it means to live in alignment with what matters most, and how one of the most powerful values we can hold is self-respect. Because when we lose sight of our values, we can start to feel resentful. 

We talk about how to identify your core values and what they really mean to you, why living out of alignment often leads to burnout and people-pleasing, and how reconnecting with your sense of self through self-respect and boundaries can help you find peace again. There’s also a simple reflection exercise to help you realign with what truly matters.

When we start living by our values, life doesn’t magically get easier, but it over time, we learn and grow from them. We stop chasing approval and start living with intention, confidence, and calm. So grab a notebook or just listen in, and let’s take some time to come hone into what matters most: ourselves.
