I’ve been watching Corona’s journey for a while + love what she shares. One of her posts on Instagram caught my attention. She spoke about divorce being the catalyst for an extraordinary life. She accepted my invitation to talk about that+ I’m especially grateful - because I think we’re all experiencing huge + unexpected changes right now.

Every now and then some alone time is great but social interactions are a massive part of our lives. We humans are wired for connection. So, what happens when we don’t get it?

If you are struggling with your partner right now, I want you to know you’re not alone - many are experiencing heightened tensions + it will be make or break time for many relationships. I want this to be a “make it” time for you- one that brings you even closer + reminds you how much you mean to each other.

For decades I hated my body and struggled with self confidence.

You might not know this about me, but I have a skin disease called Vitiligo. It leaves big white patches on my skin – all over my arms, legs and body.

For most of my life, I never thought of myself as beautiful.

I felt like the ugly duckling and wondered how anyone would ever truly love or be attracted to me.

It impacted my confidence, my relationships - and intimacy.

Because, let’s face it - self love is the foundation of ALL our other relationships.

 ***

I believe that every woman deserves to feel comfortable, confident and sexy in her own skin.

And I believe it is possible for every woman - regardless of our size, shape, colour or age.

Self-love and confidence aren’t things that we have or don’t have - they're things we can CULTIVATE. 

***

In this episode of Wholehearted: Love Sex + Intimacy we get personal…

Podcast Producer, Bec Dent, and I share the insights we gathered during this Self Love Series and walk you through our journeys to loving ourselves and our bodies.

Every woman is on a journey to fall in love with themselves.

Our goal from this episode, is to share our own stories and remind you, you are not alone. 

You’re not necessarily born loving your body, or loving yourself.

And your relationship with yourself can change throughout your life. But it’s not the changes that matter- it’s how you feel about yourself through them.

Our aim is to remind you of how amazing you are and help you find ways to practice radical self love and remember your ‘enoughness’ in every moment… in this moment, just as you are.

We hope you enjoy this episode and can learn to love yourself even more after hearing it.
