See this content in the original post

We humans can manage to take something as friendly as the encouragement to "Love Yourself"...and turn it into a message of more pressure, and demand to perform, measure up, do well enough, be good at!

🙄

Well, in this episode, we explore this crazy-ass dynamic:

  • where this tendency comes from

  • what we can do about it

Here’s a ‘cheat sheet’/reminder that makes sense, if you’ve listened to this episode:

Your Part

  1. Listen to It

  2. Calendarize It

  3. Trust It

  4. Do It

  5. repeat, and remember there’s no finish line

Its Part

  1. Speak/Lead/Guide/Show

  2. “Grow the baby / grow the plant”
