we all have a past DUH unless you are one years old, BUT that past shaped who we are today. This episode is not to blame the parents because maybe they did anything they could to be there for us but it's important to remember and be AWARE of how those experiences shaped who we are. SO, sit back and learn more about the attachment styles!!   Reference Lamanna, M, Riedmann, A, & Stewart, S....

Alooo, en este episodio les quiero compartir una filosofía que mi coach me compartió y la verdad si me ha ayudado y pues lo quiero recordar!!!

El concepto del amor se me ha hecho complicado. Tambien la idea del respeto PERO no se me hace tan complicado de entender como el amor. Es obviamente una idea que estoy aprendiendo a adaptar y es un proceso que toma tiempo.

What is love? and how can we love ourselves? I'm starting to become aware that I can start with respecting myself, step by step it might not be easy but it's necessary 

Ser positiv@ es algo promocionado por la sociedad, y por un momento largo de mi vida pensaba que ser postiv@ iba a cambiar mis circunstancias pero yo creo en la importancia de ser honest@ contigo mism@ para poder progresar. 

For the longest time I have supported the idea of always looking at the bright side of things. However, last year I became aware of how positivity can become toxic, especially when feelings are ignored. So come join me to this interesting talk. HAPPY NOVEMBER
