Self-Love 100 together.
Every single weekend,every single Sunday, 12
o'clock Eastern time.
You will meet me here.
And we are going to talkabout steps to actually
loving yourself more.
If there's anything that Irealized in my own struggle

(00:44):
of trying to love myself, it'sthat when I started implementing
really good habits and reallygreat routines, that actually
worked for me, not against me.
I started to love myself more.
I started to have theopportunity to love myself

(01:05):
more because those habitsand routines were mine.
They weren't someone else's.
They weren't something Ifound off the internet.
They were mine.
They worked for me and mylifestyle, and that's what
I'm going to be helpingyou to figure out for
the remainder of 2025.
I wanna keep these episodesshort and sweet, something

(01:29):
you can listen to on yourdrive to work, uh, on, on your
walk every single day whenyou wake up in the morning.
As you're getting ready,I want you to have the
easiest opportunity to put.
All of these things intomotion to really focus on
you for the rest of the year.

(01:49):
So every single Sunday,we'll be here for about 10
minutes or so, talking aboutthe next thing that we're
going to cross off our list.
Now, the challenge, what is it?
Well, it's a hundred daysof loving yourself more, and
there are about eight differentpractices that I have utilized
in my life and that I hopethat you can utilize in yours.

(02:12):
In order to actually lookback after those 100 days
and say, holy shit, yeah, Ido kind of love myself more.
Because the goal isn'tto be at this destination
of loving yourself.
The goal is to continuouslychoose yourself, and by starting
the Self-Love 100 with me,you're choosing to love yourself

(02:36):
more for all 100 of those days.
And I can promise you thatif you decide to choose
yourself for 100 days, youwill love yourself more.
There is no question about it.
So welcome to week number one.

Welcome to theSelf-Love Archives.
My name is Julia, and I amyour self love bestie and your
host of this Self-Love podcast.
And welcome to this brandnew series that we're calling
the Self-Love 100 series.
For 15 weeks and a hundred days,I'm going to be here with you
every single Sunday going oversomething that you can implement

(03:26):
in your life that's going tohelp you love yourself more.
Now, I've never done anythinglike this before, so I'm
excited to see how it worksout and know that while I'm
sharing my knowledge andthis challenge with you,
I'm going to be doing it.
Myself at the same exact time.

(03:48):
So we're in this together.
It is week one of the Self-Love100 and week one is very
much a soft launch, softstep into the self-love 100.
This week is allabout intention.
This week is allabout choosing you.

(04:08):
I don't want you tochange anything this week,
do anything different.
Or even try anything new.
I just want you to be awareof you, aware of your why,
aware of why you are choosingto take this step into loving
yourself more, and I want youto see where that leads you.

(04:33):
I want you to reallyhone in on your why.
Why do you want tolove yourself more?
Where are you?
In life right now where you'rescreaming at yourself like,
why don't you love yourself?
Why can't you figure it out?

(04:55):
Why can't you do thisor have this or be that?
Hone in on your why and bekind to yourself as you sit in
that self-awareness this week.
Your why can beanything under the sun.
Take a look at yourhabits this week.

(05:16):
What are some really greathabits that you know you
cannot go a day without?
And what are maybe some habitsthat could be self-sabotaging?
Your ability to love yourself?
Are you talking toyourself negatively?
A lot.

(05:37):
Are you not taking enoughtime for yourself, or do you
know that every single dayyou have to start off the day
with a 10 minute meditation orelse the whole day is ruined?
This is not meantto be difficult.
This is not meant to overwhelmyou or stress you out.
This is just to keep youaware of who you are right

(06:02):
now in this very momentas you make the decision.
To choose you forthe next 100 days.
I have some reallyexciting news.
It's like I, oh, it has beena long time coming and I.

(06:25):
Have been wanting to sharethis with you, and you might
have heard me drop some likelittle hints or literally
just blatantly say it likethere was no keeping this
a secret because I've beenway too excited about it.
I am launching aself-love card deck.
Not only is it a self-lovecard deck, it is a card deck

(06:46):
called Love Yourself More.
And the self-love 100was actually created in
tandem with this card deck.
So I'm excited to announce thatas you're listening to this.
The card deck is nowlive for pre-sale.
I cannot wait for youto get your hands on it.

(07:09):
And if you so happen to becoming to our Self-Love Expo
Bloom on September 28th,you'll be one of the first to
be able to purchase and havethe card deck in your hands.
It feels so good to finallytell you guys all about it.
There's 100 questions in theLove Yourself, more card deck,
three levels deep, deeper,and deepest, asking you to go

(07:32):
deeper with yourself becausewhen you know yourself,
you can love yourself more.
There's one question thoughthat you start and end the
card deck with, and I wannashare that question with
you today as we go on thisjourney of 100 days together.

(07:52):
That question is who are youand how do you see yourself?
I want you to take a momentto think about your answer.
And it would be so great towrite your response down to
this question on a piece ofpaper, um, on your computer,
in your notes app anywhere.

(08:13):
Write your answer to thisquestion, keep it safe,
and we're gonna come backto it after the 100 days.
Use this as your beginning intothe self-love 100 to reflect on
who you are in this very moment.
Not who you want to be,not who you are tomorrow,

(08:37):
exactly who you are right now.
And that's it for week one.
Keep your answer tothat question somewhere
safe and reflect on yourlife, on your day to day.
Be aware and intentional aboutwho you are exactly as you are.

(08:59):
Today, tomorrow, and forthe rest of the week,
and I'll see you backhere for week number two.
I love you and I cannot wait tolove ourselves more together.
