Self-love isn’t always soft, easy, or comfortable—sometimes it means giving yourself the tough love you’ve avoided and finally doing the hard things. Growth happens in the moments we choose courage over comfort. 💫This week on Life Happens with Barb & Michelle, we’re answering your questions about self-love and how to build a strong foundation within. With envy, self-doubt, comparison, and self-judgment at an all-time high, this conversation offers a gentle, grounded guide for breaking through the noise and cultivating real confidence.💬 Barb opens up about the power of positive self-talk and how it helped her heal from perfectionism and years of self-doubt.💬 Michelle shares her personal experience with envy and how understanding the root of it transformed her relationship with herself.✨ Episode Highlights• Cultivating Real Self-Love: How to act with compassion even when your mind is filled with negative thoughts.• Releasing Tough Love Habits: Identifying when you’re bypassing your emotions and learning to honour your true self-love language.• From Envy to Self-Satisfaction: Recognizing comparison, interrupting the negative narrative, and rewriting your internal dialogue.• Navigating Singleness: It’s okay to feel disappointment—while still choosing joy, connection, and fulfillment in your life today.Remember: You don’t need to earn your self-love.
