In Episode #140, I welcome back Matt O'Neill to discuss my all time favorite topic.
- The Root of ALL Love is Self-Love: If you don’t love yourself, not only will your relationships never reach their full potential, but they may suffer.
- Celebrate Self-Love in February and Beyond: Use Valentine’s Day as a reminder to love yourself first—whether that’s through creativity, connection, or simply saying “yes” to joy (all acts of self-care).
- Practicing Small Acts of Self-Care will Grow Self-Love: Do something fun - yoga, meditate, hike, journal, take a bath, walk on the beach or visit a gallery—small acts that nurture you.
- Make a Fun List: Reconnect with joy by brainstorming activities that light you up—window shopping, live music, painting classes (axe throwing anyone?).
- Reframe “Fun” as “What Lights You Up”: Shift your mindset to focus on activities that make you feel alive and glad to be in the moment.
- Balancing Social Invitations: Evaluate whether going out will energize or drain you. Prioritize spending time with uplifting, inspiring people who recharge your spirit.
- Say Yes to Life’s Opportunities: Inspired by Yes Man, consider saying “yes” to unexpected adventures that can bring growth, excitement, and joy into your life.
- Combat Isolation Post-COVID: Be intentional about breaking out of Netflix habits by seeking connection and activities that expand your world.
- Self-Love Through Boundaries: Every time you say yes to someone else’s priorities, you could be saying no to yourself. Protect your time and energy without guilt. Pause before saying “yes” and explore if there are alternatives that will honor both yourself and your relationship.
- Life is the Story You Write: Recognize that every choice contributes to your life narrative. When you say yes to joy and self-love, you’re writing a story filled with creativity, connection, and meaning.
