Happy Valentine’s Day!!!!!!
Let’s talk about love, connection, vulnerability, and relationships! On Valentine’s Day, I couldn’t think of two better people, my best friends, Pamela Demetriou and Lauren McDonald, to celebrate Valentine’s day and do a deep dive with on these topics!
Today, with my besties we are sharing with you the inner workings of our almost twenty year relationship. We are opening up about how we have grown together in our friendship and the evolution as us as individual and how we have cultivated a place within our friendship for vulnerability, authenticity and accountability. It has not come without hard conversations but we have been willing to put the friendship first and commit to growing through it in an attempt to understand one another and raise each other up.
I believe friendships can be one of the most powerful or destructive forces on us as we navigate the world. Who you surround yourself with dramatically impacts the quality of your life, directly and indirectly. Our friendships influence our goals, achievements. belief in ourselves, our outlook, what you pay attention to, nutritional habits…. everything. If we learn to harness the power of friendship and be intentional about who we let into our inner circle, it can really act as a catalyst to fully embody our authentic selves and actualize our greatest desires. With the a strong inner circle we can create the environment around us that gives us a fertile ground for growth and creativity.
Do you feel like you can show up with one hundred percent authenticity in your relationships? Do you create a space for others to do the same?
