Ep 61 - How to be your own best friend

About this episode

Halina discusses how to become your own best friend and nurture a supportive relationship with yourself.

In this episode I talk about what it means to become your own best friend and how to truly have your own back. Because we spend our whole lives with ourselves. And the relationship we build with ourselves shapes everything: how we create, how we show up, how we move through challenges. In this episode, I share the three pillars that have helped me nurture that relationship over time: – self-acceptance – self-care – self-support We talk about the inner critic, where it often comes from, and how to gently shift towards a more compassionate inner voice. I also share simple, practical ways to support yourself, especially when things feel messy, imperfect, or uncertain. This is something I’m still learning too. But the more I practice it, the more I realize how much it changes everything. If you’ve ever felt like you’re too hard on yourself, or like you’re constantly pushing without really supporting yourself, this episode is for you. And if you feel like sharing, I’d love to hear what being your own best friend looks like for you. 🌿 If you’re looking for a simpler, calmer way to grow your online business, I’ve created a free guide for you: The Simple Way to Grow A gentle system…
