One of the biggest steps is achieving our goals is changing how we talk to ourselves. The negative, painful things we say to ourselves we would never think of saying to our friends. What would it be like if we could be as supportive to ourselves as we are to our loved ones? What could we achieve? I, also, believe in walking out of session with small, concrete, manageable strategies to try during the week and seeing what works and what needs to be tweaked. Let's celebrate what is already w...
