Happy New year! I reflect on the past year. How I got started by listening to the voice in my head.  Yeah, kinda like Frozen 2 (which my kids are currently watching). - You have to deal with your limiting beliefs that aren’t moving you forward Impossible goal for 2021 – how about intimacy?  It is the journey, not the destination – a journey of 1,000 miles starts with a single step. It is not the YOU when you get there – but the journey What is your reason for your goal? If it is so you feel better about yourself, ask yourself why you can’t feel good about yourself now. You are worthy now, just as you are. Nothing you can get/obtain will CREATE the worthiness. Feeling of worthiness comes from thoughts, not circumstances. So, if you want to have a better sex life to feel worthy as a spouse etc etc….what is preventing you from feeling worthy as a spouse now? Watch out for the SHOULDS! I also share the top four rules by Dr. Rachel Carlton Abrams in “the Multi-Orgasmic Woman". Self-cultivation – best renaming EVER! And in the meantime, remember, you are not broken. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kj-casperson/message Learn more about your ad choices.
