The journey to self-love begins with liking yourself first. But doing this work can present one of the biggest battles we all face as humans: loneliness. It's one of the things that keeps us in mediocre relationships far past their expiry dates, because being in the company of another seems, in theory, better than being alone.
But relationships with others are not the cure to loneliness. And believe it or not, the better you become acquainted with loneliness, the less you will fear it and the more it can help you grow. In this episode, I’ll share how, and give you a step-by-step practice to self-love.
In this episode, we’re talking about:
- Accepting loneliness
- The 8 Steps to Self-Love
- Learning to like yourself
- How to build a healthy relationship
- Loneliness vs alone
- Benefits of developing a relationship with loneliness
