What It Looks Like to Love Yourself with Marco Stephano

Living from a place of selflessness is great, but what does that really mean? How do we do it? Learn how to validate yourself rather than seek it in outside sources. Self-love is a muscle that we can all have more of. 

Marco is a transformation life coach and mentor. We last spoke in Episode #8: Rising Through Crisis and Finding Peace. 

Quotes to remember: 

“Life starts from the inside out, not the other way around.” 

“Love always protects, always hopes, always trusts, is always kind, always perseveres, is not happy when bad things happen but rejoices when it’s always good.”

“Listening is an act of love, because it’s a gift.” 

“Write from approval, not for approval.”

Takeaways:

Our core needs will be satisfied, the question is by what means; you cannot tame these desiresCan you be at peace with nothing? With uncertainty?We can be addicted to ideas and wanting validationHealthy love is selfless and wanting to do good, yet not being a doormatDrink from the endless source of unconditional loveFaking love does not workWe have a thinking mind and an emotional mind, conscious and unconscious; true change is when the unconscious changesKnowledge alone will not bring transformationWhen you want to be heard, you listen lessAre you working from your identity, or for your identity?It is our choice to create radical change in our lives

What you’ll learn:
