Getting mentally well and changing your life for the better is possible.

from Dr. Francine Shapiro,

"The experiences we encountered became encoded in our memory networks and are the basis of how we perceive the world as adults. And even the most supportive families can still leave children with unprocessed memories."

Your inner critic can be LOUD, but you don’t have to listen to it. Try asking yourself these questions instead!

I created the Foundations of Self-Love to describe what most helped me because there was no one thing that made me love myself (maybe your journey is different).

It’s also important to acknowledge that some of us start at different places.

Mental illness changes the self-love journey. Physical illnesses and disabilities change the self-love journey. Child abuse and trauma change the journey. Lack of resources, support, and community change the journey.

Self-love doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It’s not Point A to Point B. It is such a personal experience. I can’t tell you how to love yourself. No random person on the internet can. I can give you the tools I use. I can point you in the right direction (we’re all trying to get to the same place right?) but I don’t have the magic formula - this is about as close as I can get.
