Episode Summary:In this episode, I cut through the Instagram quotes and wellness clichés to explore what self-love actually is. Self-love isn’t a feeling you wake up with—it’s a skill, often messy, challenging, and full of missteps. I share real talk on the courage it takes to practice self-love, how to navigate the obstacles that inevitably arise, and practical insights for moving through adversity with compassion for yourself. This is an honest, tough-love conversation about embodying self-love in the real world.

Key Topics:

What self-love really means beyond clichés and social media advice

Why self-love is a skill and not just a feeling

Common challenges and pitfalls in practicing self-love

How to navigate mistakes and setbacks without self-judgment

Practical strategies for cultivating resilience and self-compassion

The courage and strength required to live a self-loving life
