MWH 427 : She Called Me an “Attention Seeker” – How I Deal with Personal Criticism
Some memorable moments from this episode:
- “Criticism has taught me more about the critic's world than my own. It's a lesson in empathy and understanding, not a directive for my life.”
- “Discovering the psychology behind criticism was a game-changer for me. It shifted how I see the world and my place in it.”
- “Choosing to shine, especially when it's hard, has been one of my most powerful decisions. It's about claiming my space and inviting others to do the same.”
- “Growth is a beautiful, complex journey. There's joy in expansion and a certain melancholy in moving on. Both are valuable.”
- “To everyone listening, know this: Your light is needed. Embracing who you are is the first step in a journey of endless possibilities and shared brilliance.”
Join me as I reflect on these lessons, share stories from my heart, and explore how we can all live more authentically and supportively in a world that sometimes seems intent on dimming our shine.
This is more than just my story; it's an invitation to you to find your voice, claim your space, and celebrate your unique light.
