Courageous Self-Love

Have you looked all over for something you lost? Maybe it was your glasses, your keys, some lipstick, or something you just couldn’t find.  Only to discover you had it all along in your purse, or backpack or maybe you were even wearing it already. 

The lessons for us here is that having is not empowering unless we we have the REALIZATION of what we possess. 

You are worthy, you are loved, your miraculous, you are complete, whole and beautiful.  Like our lost keys example, having it is not the same thing as that moment where you fully REALIZE that you are all of this and more. 

This week’s episode focus on courageous self-love.  This is the foundation of it all.  It is where we shall begin in the Year of Courage. 

Let us walk forward together on this path of courageous self-love.  Enjoy this week’s video and/or podcast.

This is My Year of Courage

Each year I create a theme and intention that I will focus on.  2015 was my Year of Expression and 2016 was my Year of Balance.  I have decided that 2018 is my Year of Courage. 😃 

This week’s episode dives into the essence of Courage.  What is courage?  Is it different for each person?  Can it be replicated? Is it learned or are we born with it?  These are the question I start to reflect upon. 

As a way to explore this year’s theme, I share a free write poem I created too.

I look forward to walking this pathway of courage together this year!
