Loving yourself properly means loving yourself fully. Yes, that means even the parts that sit in the shadows of who you pretend to show the world - even the parts that we may not want to show.

Safely, my friend, we have to visit our shadows and darkness, because that is the only way to get the full image, the full picture, and that is where love resides - in fullness. Loving Yourself Properly is an invitation to reconnect with the outcast parts of your existence.

Your belief system and thoughts lead to your choices, your choices lead to your habits, and your habits lead to your outcomes and your emotional experience.

This journey is about us making space for the outcast parts of our soul that we hide, for the parts of our personality that we are too afraid to show. Why? So you can add new stitches into your wounds, add new mindsets and begin to untangle old ones, and begin to recognize and present yourself fully, which will lead to more prosperous relationships, deeper meaning, and more clarity.

This invitation is about finding your voice - the voice of passion and fire if you so dare to allow it to be ignited. The invitation here will ask you to sit still and acknowledge what you see, and it also will make space for you to spring into action to create what you think is possible.

The invitation here isn’t about being better, gaining more, or making improvements - this invitation is about beginning to introspect our choices, emotions, and habits deeply. This invitation wants you to see the darkness and the light, and it serves as an opportunity to let go of beliefs and behaviors that keep you out of your highest alignment. Life is not complicated or easy; it is a puzzle, and this invitation is about finding pieces and moving them around to make an image of living an authentic life.

This invitation is not about shame, putting yourself down, or chasing perfection. This invitation asks you to acknowledge all three and then begin to choose new plays out of your playbook of life. Loving Yourself Properly is a playbook, an invitation to consider how we are treating, seeing, and talking about our journey. You deserve love, self-compassion, and loving-kindness. In Loving Yourself Properly, we break down what self-love is and how we can integrate this framework into our life today.
