Ep 71 Your Most Important Friendship

Published: Oct. 23, 2019, 1 p.m.

If you live in the space of being self-critical (like I have), it's really challenging to believe that other people are going to like you because you don't like you.\nWhen you are being self-critical, it doesn't allow you to present yourself in a way that you can truly be as open and loving and inclusive and outward as you are capable of.\nBeing a friend to yourself not only shifts your experience of YOU, but it strengthens all your relationships, because you begin to BE a different person.\nIn this episode April shares her personal goal to love herself from a few years ago.\nSome of the things we talk about:\xa0\n-Getting to know yourself\n-Being the first to offer compassion to yourself\n-Giving too much "weight" to other people's feedback (positive or negative)\n-Understanding that insecurity is part of being human; it's universal\n-Finding what nurtures you, and building it into your life\n-Difference between being alone and feeling lonely\n\nWe want to hear your thoughts!
