Conversation Starters are included in every podcast’s show notes for yourself, mothers, daughters, grandmothers, sisters, and girlfriends. Sometimes it’s awkward to start having meaningful conversations. This can be true for communicating with yourself and with others. Be open, gentle, compassionate, and willing to learn and grow. We would also love to hear from you, so please write in and let us know how it goes!
Wanda Petunia Love Podcast is also open to your ideas and suggestions!

Conversation Starters for Yourself and with Someone Else:
“I was told that in Mandarin there are two words that both translate into “Selfish” in English. One means “Doing something that benefits you.” The other means “Doing something that benefits you at the expense of others.” In English, we don’t have this distinction. But there is a recognition in Chinese culture that these are two different notions - that is not necessarily true that anything you do for yourself harms others. Sometimes you can do wonderful and important things for yourself without taking a thing away from another human being. This is the difference between self-care and greed. Self-care = GOOD. Greed = BAD. They are critically different. Never forget it.” - Elizabeth Gilbert
