My Feel Better class is in session right now, and we're talking about what it means to live from the inside out and to decide for yourself what you want to think instead of looking outside for the right answer. It's not easy, because most of us were raised to follow an invisible rulebook of what we should and shouldn't do, and who we're supposed to be. In this episode, I talk about what happens when we stop living by invisible rulebooks and start living from the inside out. You'll hear how "shoulds" are tied to old programming and people-pleasing habits, why approval once meant survival for women, and what it really means to make choices from self-trust instead of guilt. I'll walk you through five simple steps to release those outdated rules so you can move through life with more freedom, confidence, and ease.
