Do you ever feel like you're going through the motions, but not quite sure why? Feeling lost about what truly matters to you? This episode is all about uncovering your Core Desired Feelings (CDFs) - the emotional states YOU crave most in life. These are unique and special to you, not a one-size-fits-all list.

In this episode we discuss: 

• What are Core Desired Feelings and why are they important?
• How do your CDFs impact all areas of your life?
• Practical exercises to help you identify your Core Desired Feelings.
• The connection between CDFs and self-discovery: what you truly need to thrive.

Do you ever feel like you're not good enough unless...You achieve that next promotion? You hit a certain number on the scale? Someone finally "likes" your latest post? We all have those nagging voices that whisper limitations. In this episode we’re exploring the concept of conditions of worth - those invisible rules set for ourselves that dictate our self-esteem. If you’re ready to break free from the cycle of seeking external validation and step into a space of self-love and acceptance, this episode is for you! 

In this episode we discuss: 

• What are conditions of worth?
• How do they show up in our daily lives?
• Ways to identify your own conditions of worth 
• How to cultivate intrinsic self-worth that comes from within
