Unscripted With Karishma Patel

What happens when you start loving yourself and start showing up for yourself? You start speaking to yourself in a positive way, you stop holding value on what other people think of you and you start paying attention to what you think of you, you start to hold boundaries and start realizing what you do deserve and that you will take nothing less than that, because you do deserve love respect and kindness especially from yourself. You start to realize that the more you love yourself you are able to receive love from others and are open to love, and you understand that growth is uncomfortable but it is necessary and it is a part of the process of being human. In this episode I break down ways to start loving yourself in a deeper form. It starts with you. Listen now for more and tune in every week on Tuesdays for new episodes.
