04/09/19 • 32 min

Don't take things so personally, this little lesson changed our lives in amazing ways. It gave us freedom, it helped all our relationships, it gave us time to focus on more important things and it allowed life to flow more.So the question is, do you take things personally? And does this behaviour impact your life in big ways?Stuff we talked about...

If someone is rude, quiet, in a mood... it most probably won't be anything to do with you and no, you don't need to fix it... maybe they need space.
If you're sensitive or an empath (like us!) it's very easy to take things personally.
When you take everything to heart not only does it make you feel down it also takes up so much of your precious time.
Are you hopeless at taking criticism, even constructive criticism? TUNE IN!
Space is your friend. But don't take space and think about the person who offended you! Connect to you.
Get inspired to change your mindset and 'step behind' your feelings.

183: confidence is not something you're born with | 5 min pep talk

Listen for just 5 minutes and be reminded that you can build your self-confidence at any time and any age. Because confidence isn't something you're born with, once you have this awareness you can actively create it from the inside out.Soul words of the week..."Confidence is not something you’re born with. It is built up over time from the positive and negative experiences in our lives — the powerful result of this being that hard-won confidence is also hard to destroy. It isn’t always loud or forceful. It’s not about popularity or winning. Nor is it about putting others down to make yourself bigger. You don’t need words of praise or support from others to feel it. You only need you. And I think the best part about finding and harnessing this power within yourself is that it gives other women permission to do so, too." Marina Diamandis via Instyle.
