Life Lessons with Leesh

Show Notes

Self love isn’t avoiding your emotions, it’s learning how to feel them safely and without shame. In this episode, Love Yourself Enough to Feel Your Feelings Instead of Numbing Out, I talk about why so many women disconnect from their emotions, how emotional suppression impacts confidence and body image, and why feeling your feelings is a core part of real self love. You’ll learn: • why avoiding emotions keeps you stuck in self criticism • how “staying busy” can be a form of emotional numbing • the link between confidence, self worth, and emotional awareness • how to practise self love by allowing your feelings instead of fighting them If you’ve been told to “just think positive” while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck this episode is for you.

In this episode, we’re talking about the sneaky ways self hatred can disguise itself as “motivation” from hating your body and constantly comparing yourself, to believing you’ll finally be happy, confident or worthy once you become better. But what if you could grow, evolve and become the woman you want to be while loving the woman you are today? 🥹🧡 We’re unpacking the difference between self criticism and self respect, why the goalpost always seems to move, and how to start becoming HER without abandoning yourself along the way.
