119: About Betrayal, Learning to Stand Up For Myself & Turning Pain into Purpose (The Story Behind ‘Honestly’)

Author: Aileen Xu June 2, 2019 Duration: 31:29
Hi loves! It's a special solo chat for the podcast this week. I'm sharing a story I've never talked about publicly before: a painful experience I had in my early YouTube days where I learned that people I considered to be genuine friends, had never thought of me in the same way. This story shares my insights from that time and what it's like to look back on it now. I realized some truths about the downfalls of being a people-pleaser, but ultimately, I found the light in my experience: all of that hurt turned into everything that Lavendaire is now, and I couldn't be more grateful. Finally, a surprise announcement: I created an online course! "Create Your Dream Life" is the program I wish I had in my early twenties, while I was soul searching and doing anything I could to find my life path. I talk about it a bit in the episode, but you can check out the full details here: lavendaire.com/dreamlife → Show notes & quotes at lavendaire.com/lifestyle-119
