  • In this segment, we go down memory lane to one of my most downloaded episodes on this podcast - My Declaration of NO's for 2022 - to talk about something still very much relevant today: taking responsibility for our own needs and not projecting them onto others, because not every good guy has to be our future husband and not every "bad bitch" has to be our new best friend. I've learned that it's so much better to receive people without any expectations and just enjoy the moment. in this segment, I talk about how to recognize if someone is truly adding value to our lives and the importance of authentic connections. So join me as I dive into how we can avoid projecting our needs onto others and start fulfilling those needs ourselves .Get ready for some real talk and practical tips on how to love yourself more and seek validation from within.
