Self-love is hard for most people. It isn't a practice that's encouraged in our culture. Instead, we're continually fed messaging about what's wrong with us and what we need to change to reach a certain standard. 

 

Now, when you've gone through a loss or infertility diagnosis, self-love feels even more out of reach. And yet, it is THE single most important pathway to our healing and liberation. 

 

This episode explores the ways in which we've been taught to disconnect ourselves from our own love, how this pattern shows up in different areas of our lives, including intimate relationships, and how to reclaim our connection with ourselves as a source of love and self-compassion.
