What It Looks Like to Love Yourself with Marco Stephano - a podcast by Jessica Sun
from 2021-01-29T11:00
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 desires
- Can you be at peace with nothing? With uncertainty?
- We can be addicted to ideas and wanting validation
- Healthy love is selfless and wanting to do good, yet not being a doormat
- Drink from the endless source of unconditional love
- Faking love does not work
- We have a thinking mind and an emotional mind, conscious and unconscious; true change is when the unconscious changes
- Knowledge alone will not bring transformation
- When you want to be heard, you listen less
- Are you working from your identity, or for your identity?
- It is our choice to create radical change in our lives
What you’ll learn:
- The common relationship between achievement and self-love, and what we can discover about ourselves within our need to be validated
- An example of different parenting styles in which you are punished for either what you did or who you are
- How to build a culture of truth rather than of fear, and how to lead yourself
- How Marco connects to the source of unconditional love
- About the gift of listening, and how it is empowerment
- A different way to measure your influence and impact than the number of followers you have
