With New Year’s upon us we are bombarded with messages about resolutions, and making every second count, and installing better habits and sustainable routines, essentially creating an entirely new and improved version of ourselves. Even with good intentions and earnest pursuit, the journey of self-improvement is, inherently, a journey of self-rejection. Instead, take a journey of self-acceptance, and see for yourself that on the other side of our resistance is our transcendence.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

–Why the “New Year, New You” approach is destined to fail.

–Why healing and transformation actually happen through acceptance of what is, not force

-How to embrace radical self-acceptance so transformation can unfold naturally

If you’re ready to truly embrace yourself for once, despite the New Year’s push to self-reject, then this episode is for you.
