I used to believe two things:
1) The meaner I was to myself, the more I would be motivated to
workout more and eat less to have a "better" body.
2) I thought the "better" my body looked, the more I would be able
to love and accept myself.
Both of these thoughts were WRONG.
This episode is for women who also believe those things to be
true.
Cynthia helps us get down to the psychology behind negative
self-talk- why it doesn't motivate us, and what we can do about. We
also talk about WHY we all seem to think that happiness and radical
self-acceptance is NOT on the other end of a smaller number on the
scale or a smaller pants size. If you don't see your worth right
now, you will continue to be devoid of any self-love or
self-acceptance, no matter how much weight you lose. Take a listen
to hear more about what I'm talking about!
Here's to feeling more confident, no matter what you look like.
