Let’s talk about self-love — the real kind. Not the bubble baths. Not the affirmations you repeat but don’t believe yet. The kind that asks you to sit with yourself honestly.

In this episode, we’re diving into what self-love truly means, how to normalize the struggle with it, and how to start giving it to yourself consistently even when it feels hard. Because before we can practice self-love, we have to understand what it actually is.

I used to believe self-love meant pouring into everyone else and hoping it would come back to me. I thought if I gave enough, supported enough, loved enough, I’d receive it in return. But that’s not self-love. That’s self-abandonment.

If you’ve been overgiving, feeling drained, or questioning your worth, this conversation is for you.

It’s time to stop outsourcing your love and start embodying it.
