Can You Receive Love If You Don’t Love Yourself? The Heart Chakra for Parents

Don't you just love watching your four-year-old walk out in a bucket hat, rain boots, and a tutu like they're the most glamorous person on earth? No worries about what anyone else thinks. 💚 Wouldn't it be amazing if we could live from our hearts like that now, as parents?

In this episode, we're continuing our chakra series with the heart chakra, our fourth chakra, all about relationships, self-love, and receiving love. And something came to me that blew my mind: if we don't love ourselves, we can't receive love.

We talk about:
✨ Shedding the layers and showing up as your authentic self
✨ Why friendships can shift as you raise your vibration
✨ Coming out of the "spiritual closet" at school pickup
✨ How to receive love from our kids, even when it doesn't look the way we expect
✨ Why what bugs us in others is often a reflection of ourselves (and what we love in others is in us, too!)
✨ Keeping the energy alive with your partner, spirit to spirit
✨ An affirmation to give and receive love

💚 Stay to the end: we close with a channeled guided meditation for your heart chakra, to help you open up and receive love. Meditation starts at 16:24. (If you're driving, save that part for later.)

Spirit to spirit, I see you parents. You are worth it.
