Description

In this episode, Matt speaks with author and love advocate, Scott Stabile. Together, they break down the psycho-spiritual aspects of the inner critic and how to best work with it from a place of love. If you are someone who is hard on yourself and has a tough time finding self-love and self-compassion, this episode will help you develop greater awareness of your inner critic, where self-judgment originates, and how you can start practicing more acceptance of yourself and others through presence, love, and compassion. 





The concepts and questions we explore in this episode are:






  • How do you define love and self-love/compassion?




  • Do you believe it's possible to transcend self-judgment?




  • What does self-compassion look like?




  • How does prioritizing self-love/compassion serve the world outside of yourself?




  • Are there specific tools or techniques you can recommend to foster deeper self-compassion and self-love?




  • How do you feel, if at all, that lack of self-compassion is contributing to the insanity and division we're seeing in our world?
