Description

Have you ever tried to build a life while constantly criticizing yourself and wondering why nothing feels stable? Maybe you push yourself under the bus, act like your own worst critic, or apologize for your needs. When you reject yourself, every boundary crumbles and every goal feels impossible because you're building on quicksand.

 

In this episode, we dive into why self-acceptance is the real antidote to self-abandonment. We talk about how patterns of people-pleasing, over-functioning, and constant apologizing were survival strategies that made sense at the time, and how they can now keep you stuck. Learn a five-step process to start practicing self-acceptance that will help you make decisions from a place of self-trust, deepen your relationships, and show up fully as yourself.
