Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, folks, welcome back to the dopamine reset. This
is your boy, Leo Weston, here to drop some knowledge
bombs and hopefully leave you feeling a little bit more
fired up about life. Today's topic one that's close to
my heart, cultivating self love and acceptance. Now I know

(00:22):
what you're thinking, Oh, here we go again with the
self love shpiel. But trust me, this ain't your typical
fluffy like yourself pep talk. We're diving deep, getting real
about those pesky inner critics and exploring practical ways to
actually cultivate a genuine sense of self love that radiates outwards.

(00:45):
Ever felt like you were constantly comparing yourself to others,
falling into the trap of should and ought? You know
that feeling when your mind is a constant whirlwind of
I should be doing more, I'm not good enough, or
look at them, they're so perfect. Yeah, been there, done that,
got the T shirt. But guess what. We can break

(01:08):
free from these toxic thought patterns and build a relationship
with ourselves based on acceptance, kindness, and radical authenticity. Ready
to turn up the volume on your self love? Let's go.
First things first, recognize your inner critic, this little voice
in your head they constantly throw shade. Yeah, we all

(01:30):
have one. It's learned through societal conditioning, past experiences, maybe
even some family drama. The key is not to silence it,
because you need a bit of constructive criticism now and then,
but to learn to recognize its patterns and challenge its negativity.
When it whispers you're not good enough, respond with that's

(01:53):
just your opinion, buddy, I'm choosing to focus on my
strengths and celebrate who I am. Next up, practice gratitude.
This one sounds simple, but seriously, it's a game changer.
Take time each day to appreciate the good stuff, big
or small. A delicious cup of coffee, a warm sunny day,

(02:16):
a genuine laugh with a friend. These little moments add
up and shift your focus from what you lack to
what you already have. Think about it, folks, life is
like that Netflix queue. There's always something new to discover
and appreciate. Now, let's talk about boundaries. Protecting your energy

(02:37):
and well being is essential for self love. You know
those people who constantly drain your vibe, Yeah, you need
to set some boundaries with them. This doesn't mean becoming
a hermit. It means being mindful of who you spend
your time with and saying no when something doesn't serve you. Remember,

(02:59):
saying no is not selfish, it's self care. And speaking
of self care, make time for activities that nourish your soul.
Whether it's reading a good book, hitting the gym, taking
a long bath, or just chilling with your favorite tunes.
Prioritize activities that bring you joy and recharge your batteries, because,

(03:22):
let's face it, you can't pour from an empty cup. Finally,
practice radical acceptance. This means embracing all parts of yourself,
the good, the bad, and the messy, without judgment. Remember
you are a complex tapestry woven with unique strengths, vulnerabilities,

(03:42):
and experiences. Accept your imperfections, learn from your mistakes, and
celebrate your wins, big or small. Let's bring it back
to reality for a second. Remember that time you got
stuck in traffic, missed your bus and just wanted to
scream into the void. We've all been there. But instead

(04:02):
of letting those frustrations spiral out of control, imagine taking
a deep breath, acknowledging the situation with compassion, and saying
something like, Okay, this is frustrating, but I can handle it.
I'll find another way. That's self love in action, meeting
challenges with resilience and grace even when things don't go

(04:23):
your way. So how do you cultivate self love? It
starts by making a conscious effort to be kind to yourself,
to celebrate your unique qualities, and to embrace your imperfections. Remember,
self love is not a destination, but a journey, a
continuous process of growth, acceptance, and self discovery. And trust me,

(04:48):
the more you invest in yourself, the richer and more
fulfilling your life will become. Ready to level up. Share
