Nicole and Therese spill some truths on love, relationships and everything that makes our hearts sing in this brand new series - Loved(d) Actually. We wonder whether we can truly be ourselves or if we are resigned to society's expectations of us. The unhealthy pressures placed on both men and women have morphed many of us into yes-men and yes-women (people-pleasing tendencies kicking in!) and distanced us from our true sense of self. Though it's scary to accept ourselves and others as fundamentally imperfect, embracing our imperfection is the first step to having realistic expectations of ourselves and the relationships we find ourselves in. Learning to accept ourselves is a long process but it sets us up for greater authenticity and helps us to better see ourselves and others as the gifts they are!
