Published: April 16, 2021, 2 p.m.

“When it comes down to self love and self compassion, you have to keep coming back to forgiveness, and empathy and love and say you know what, you’re doing a good job; remember how far you’ve come.”  


Happy Friday, friends. This came a week later but I promise you, you don’t want to miss it! I have the honor to connect and share space with Denise Michelle, a self love expert, a transformational coach, a rapid hypnotherapist and a fervent lover and teacher of a myriad of tools to help us humankind heal, thrive and live in alignment with our truest selves. 


Here are the takeaways:

  1. Breaking a pattern starts with a decision and a commitment 
  2. Don’t be afraid to ask for help; be willing to surrender to it 
  3. It starts with acknowledging that something needs to change 
  4. Lead, give and pour from a place of empathy and authenticity and people will be drawn to your vibe and energy 
  5. Growth, especially our emotional and spiritual growth, isn’t comfortable 
  6. Stop should-ing yourself 
  7. Find a support system that don’t judge but that is conducive your growth 
  8. Slow down to speed up; it’s an ebb and flow 
  9. Society has taught us to only look for the instant gratification; we often times tend to forget that it’s about the journey and the process 
  10. When we are not ready for the results, we can often times end up sabotaging the good things that happens to us 
  11. 3 keys to start to align with your dreams: 
    • Embrace yourself for who you are; just observe, don’t judge 
    • Make a decision, make a commitment 
    • Embrace your fears
