“Small gestures of self-love have everything to do with how well cared for you feel.” – Terri Cole
Intro
How often do you find yourself bummed out on Valentine’s Day?
I can tell you, as a psychotherapist for 25 years, whether you’re single or in a relationship, Valentine’s Day has a way of setting us up for disappointment. Every year post-Cupid, I would prepare myself for the aftermath because my therapy practice would be full of people who were sad, lonely, or angry over what did or did not go down on V-day.
What if you asked for what you really want? What if you decided to fulfill your own desires this year? What if you fell wildly in love with yourself?
Listen to today’s episode to learn several ways you can get your needs met this Valentine’s Day plus a sacred self-love ritual to help you feel supported, deeply nourished, and adored.
