Change your perspective, change your life!

02/27/20 • 25 min

Your perspective governs your entire life, whether you realise it or not. Your beliefs, values and morals justify your perspectives on your friendships, relationships, work, your decisions, your actions and your thoughts. They also justify your judgements about other people, and their beliefs, values, actions, decisions, work and relationships. Our perspective is mainly subjective, and very rarely objective. It usually isn't based off hard facts, it's actually heavily influenced by our personal feelings about whatever we're observing, learning or experiencing, and whether they align with our values and beliefs. Today's episode discusses what perspective is, how to fine tune it so that you're making level-headed, informed decisions, and how doing so can truly change your life for the better.

YouTuber scandals: let's talk about them

Let's be real: we've all indulged in gossip before. Someone you know (or maybe even don't know) has done something to upset you or someone close to you, and so you talk about it. Maybe with one person, maybe with 10, maybe with more. You feel justified in doing so, because they did something wrong, right? You want that person to be held accountable, so you seek justice in the form of forming a group of people together who know how bad that person is and doesn't want to be friends with them anymore. You've won, because you've proven that you're innocent and they're guilty. Most of the time though, these things blow over. Everyone moves on and becomes friends again. Some feelings might have been hurt, but that's about it. Now, let's consider what happens when a YouTuber has a scandal. Tens of thousands (if not millions) of people join together to actively ruin someone's career. They want them to lose their jobs, their income, their stability, their friends, their support, their sanity and sometimes, when it gets bad enough, their lives. All for what? A bad makeup launch, a misconstrued tweet, befriending the wrong person or a mistake they made when they were a teenager, over 10 years ago? Internet culture has taken a turn for the worse, and someone needs to speak up about it. Let's chat...

Why I'm going to therapy

This is something I never thought I'd be talking about because I never thought I'd be doing it in the first place. For me, therapy always seemed like something you'd only seek out if you were dealing with a lot of physical or emotional trauma, depression or anxiety. I didn't think I had any justifiable reason to go. I was comparing my pain with the pain of others, and mine never seemed significant enough against theirs. In today's episode I talk you through my entire process - from my assumptions about therapy; what led me to start considering it as a valid option; making my first appointment; what the experience was like and best of all, some of the amazing life-changing lessons I've learnt so far. This is a big one for me to share, so if you did enjoy, I would be super grateful if you could leave a rating or a review - thank you so much :) x
