    What Is Self Love?

    In this episode, I reconnect with my audience after a brief hiatus, sharing the transformative experience of becoming a father to my son, Leonidas Tillam Mack, who was born three months ago. The significance of his middle name, "Tillam," which means "new moon" in Balinese, serves as a beautiful reminder of new beginnings and the journey of parenthood. As a relationship coach, I delve into the essential topic of self-love, a concept that often gets misconstrued in our society. Many associate self-love with external indulgences—like spa days or shopping sprees—yet I emphasize that true self-love is an internal experience. It involves honoring our needs, boundaries, and desires, especially in the context of our relationships with others. Throughout the episode, I share personal anecdotes from my journey into fatherhood, including the guilt I initially felt when taking time for myself. I discuss how self-care is not selfish; rather, it allows us to show up more fully for our loved ones. By prioritizing our well-being, we can cultivate a loving and supportive family environment. Join me in this heartfelt exploration of self-love, authenticity, and the beautiful complexities of parenthood. Thank you for being part of this journey, and I look forward to connecting with you all again soon! 00:00:00 - Introduction and Personal Update 00:01:11 - The Importance of Self-Love 00:09:21 - Living the Question 00:18:07 - Compassion and Connection 00:20:41 - Summary and Final Thoughts Support the show
