You probably thought I was about to drop some sort of life-changing relationship advice, right??
Not today, folks, not today. This Valentine’s Day, I’m challenging you to fall in love with yourself!
But some things can get in the way. Your mind, others, time… we're letting all that go. Get ready for some major restorative me-time.?????♂?
Your Toxic Relationship: Self-Doubt
Self-doubt can slowly sneak into our thoughts, creating a constant ringing in our ears saying, “There’s no way you can do this!” or “You’re not good enough!”
Guess what? You can do this and you are good enough.?
The hardest part is telling ourselves that every day. Self-doubt can sometimes be our most toxic relationship and it’s about time we part ways with what’s not serving us.?
One way you can move on from and conquer your self-doubt? Self-love. It can ground you, make you feel more confident, and provide you with a burst of energy and even a nice little boost of endorphins.???
How to Soak in Self-Love and Self-Care on Valentine’s Day
This time of year is typically reserved for loving others, I get it.?
But you know what they say… you can’t love others if you don’t love yourself. So fill your cup and indulge in a little self-care today if you can.???
?? That’s got me wondering… what would your perfect day of rest and self-care look like?
A Bit of Sarah-Truth…
Since the first issue of The Monthly Hustle, one of my favorite things to share with you is a bit of Sarah-Truth.
Before I tell you how I show love through total acceptance and action, I want to challenge you.???
Every day you have a choice to make, and it can be tough. So when you wake up in the morning, ask yourself if you’ll choose to love today. What sort of mindset will you be wearing? All of this affects our inner self-talk, our deepest relationships—with ourselves. So make sure you’re choosing self-care and love-focused actions every day.
An Affair with Action and Acceptance
Love has been described as blind; total acceptance for the person, pet, or thing you admire.?
But this limited visibility can cause some blind spots. ??
Through The Blended Pledge, we’re showing love by creating a visible change and highlighting diverse voices across industry stages.?

And speaking of acceptance…
We can’t forget the world is changing, people. Remote work is taking over and causing major shifts in our day-to-day lives. Nucleus is hosting a webinar all about adapting to and accepting a global remote world. Hurry! Registration ends soon!

3 年Sarah Barnes-Humphrey?? Supply Chain Leader, I don't believe I have an issue with this, however, there are times when I feel out of my element that I kind of retreat to a corner.....not often ??
