Send Mara a quick text love note here!Are you still (secretly) talking shit to yourself on a daily basis? It's time to stop. In today's episode, I talk about how self-talk is the lens we view EVERYTHING through and urge you to bring your attention to how you are speaking to yourself on a daily basis. So many of us are afraid to speak to ourselves kindly because we believe motivating ourselves out of cruelty and threat of punishment is how we are at our most productive. I want to dispel that myth once and for all and give you a nourishing framework to practice self-trust instead. Tune in to hear me explore…Pledging your primary allegiance to yourselfShowing yourself the same consideration and benefit of the doubt that you show othersHow to gently guide yourself back to compassion whenever you notice your thoughts are less than kindLove Needy?
