Here's a tip for all those who are looking for a new relationship or a new love in their life in 2024 and the tip is if you want to find love out there, start by loving yourself first. So many of us look for love out there because we want to see our worth reflected. We want to find our value reflected back through the admiration and love of the other. The reality is deep within there are parts of us that we don't like. We often live from the place of feeling not enough. So my invitation is if you want to find love out there first, start by truly loving yourself. All the perfect parts, but also the imperfections, the brokenness. Second, notice when that inner critic, the voice of judgment, start to replace that with the voice of your best friend who sees you as the whole beautiful being that you are. And number three, every day, treat yourself with some acts of kindness. We are taught early enough to always give there and not be selfish. But I would say be selfish to yourself. Treat yourself. And if we create a loving presence in here, that is what you will ever need out there and attract that kind of love in your life. Take care.
