How to Let Go of Your Emotional Baggage

Screen Shot 2013-09-21 at 10.24.09 PM

How’s that for a title, huh?

Believe it or not, your emotional baggage can actually be good thing! I mean, just last week I unexpectedly ran into one of my ex-boyfriends. And you know what? It was kind of awesome.

You’ll never guess the first words out of his mouth! (Watch the video below to find out)

As you know, we’ve been talking a lot about self-love around here. And part of self-love is loving your past experiences. And yes, even loving your ex-boyfriends.

OK, I know it’s kind of a lot to ask you to love your ex-boyfriends. So instead, how about honoring your time together? No matter how long your relationship–3 dates, 3 months, or 3 years, honoring your time with your ex’s can totally change the way you think and feel about your past, and most importantly, your present.

In this week’s episode of BDG.TV I share my personal mantra to let go of my own emotional baggage.

Try it!

And head on over to the comments section below and let me know how it works. Also, have you ever run into an ex-boyfriend? How did it go? Were you wearing mascara? Was it totally awkward and weird? Sad? Or maybe kinda sweet? Let me know in the comments section, I can’t wait to hear all your ex-boyfriend run-in stories!

What’s Self-Love got to do with Dating?

Screen Shot video 3

If you know me at all, you know I really want you to feel good.

I want you to feel good about yourself, your body, and the path you’re on. Specifically, I want you to feel good right now, exactly as you are. Why do I want this so badly? Because I know it’s possible. I know you can find some part of yourself to be proud of, confident about, and even love.

That’s what this week’s episode is about: The stuff you love about yourself. Maybe it’s your work ethic, or your brilliant ability to choose the perfect outfit for any occasion, your good instincts with money, or your impeccable gift-giving skills.

These are all examples of self-love!

But what does self-love have to do with dating? Well, imagine the guy you’re dating doesn’t love the things you love about yourself. What does it mean if he’s just sort of meh about your passion for yoga, or tennis, or anthropology?

Well, it means he’s just not your Right Guy. And we’re here to help you find your Right Guy. So, Buh-Bye!

P.S.: Toward the end of the video I share a fast and easy technique to generate MORE self-love, so you can attract the kind of men who love the stuff you love about yourself.

P.P.S.: Post a comment–Did it work? How did you feel? And, puh-leeze, if you have your own personal way to feel more loving toward yourself, let us know. Remember, your regular routine can be another’s woman’s AHA moment!

Wanna know a secret?

Screen Shot 2013-09-09 at 12.10.31 PM

In the last episode of BDG TV, you learned all about setting your intention for love. How cool was that?

But do you wanna know a secret? To find love, the first person you’ve got to love is YOU.

I know, I know. You’ve heard it before. And you do love yourself. Really. 

But here’s a different way to think about it. Check out today’s episode of BDG TV!

Then, post a comment–Have YOU ever felt less than totally-in-love with yourself in a relationship? What happened? Did the relationship stay strong, or suffer?
