If you’re a Dear Gabby listener, you know that it’s good to feel good! But do you feel that? On today’s Big Talk, my brilliant friend Fearne Cotton TOTALLY called herself out: Sometimes she feels guilty for being happy. I know many of you can relate ... so press play on this podcast! I’ll help you learn that the better you feel, the more light you can spread in this world. Feeling good is not a luxury, it’s your responsibility! I’ll also share feel-good tools that will help you surrender control and flow through the holiday season with ease .... and log a few extra hours of sleep.
This episode also touches on so many other ways you can surrender control and really start flowing with the Universe! You’ll learn:
- How to lean into joy and focus on what’s thriving, like it’s your JOB (because it is!)
- The power of speaking your truth and how to do it with confidence and ease
- How to dismantle the belief that it’s selfish to feel good (this is a MAJOR misconception!)
- How to master the art of allowing, so that you don’t strangle your desires with controlling energy
- How to tap into feelings of deep worthiness
This Dear Gabby Big Talk also offers a profound message that will allow you to see the light—and the divine opportunity—in any dark moment. When you learn to see a difficult moment as a form of guidance, you’ll be absolutely fearless in life.
