Episode 53: Self-Acceptance: Learning to Embrace and Appreciate Things We Often Wish Were Different




Episode Description:

This episode originally aired on YouTube.

If you've been following me for a while you probably hear me talk about self-acceptance and honoring your true self a lot. But, as is often the case, it can be hard to apply things we know to ourselves.

In today’s episode, I share my experience of finally being able to embrace and even honor parts of myself I often believed weren’t good enough.

I hope that my experience gives you inspiration to embrace your own uniqueness and recognize that self-acceptance is not only liberating but also important for your healing.

Can you relate to what I shared?
