    Rewire Your Brain for Good: Daily Practices for Self-Love

    In this episode of The Self Love Project, Megan explores the powerful role perception plays in shaping our daily experience — and how the evidence we collect throughout the day quietly becomes the story we believe about our lives. Using a simple but relatable “oats explosion” moment as the catalyst, Megan dives into the way our brains are constantly scanning for proof of whatever we’ve already decided is true. Whether it’s “today is hard,” “nothing is going right,” or “I’m struggling,” the brain gets to work building a case to support it. This episode unpacks the brain’s natural negativity bias, the way our internal filter shapes what we notice, and how easy it is to unintentionally train ourselves to look for what’s wrong. Megan also explores the connection between the evidence we collect about our days and the evidence we collect about ourselves — and how shifting that filter can begin to change both our mindset and our self-worth. Rather than promoting toxic positivity or pretending hard things don’t exist, this conversation is about making sure the hard things aren’t the only things getting through the filter. It’s about learning to notice the good that exists alongside the difficult, and understanding how small shifts in perception can create a completely different experience of being alive. If you’ve been feeling stuck in heaviness, frustration, or like your brain automatically focuses on everything going wrong, this episode will help you understand why that happens, how to interrupt the cycle, and how to begin training yourself to look for evidence of something better.  Follow me on Instagram: @meganelisalawther Send me an email: Megan@theselfloveproject.ca

    Letting Go of Control: The Shift From Anxiety to Trust

    In this episode of The Self Love Project, Megan dives into the topic of control — the subtle, everyday ways it shows up in our lives from overthinking texts and rehearsing conversations to managing routines, outcomes, and even how other people feel about us.  Megan unpacks how control often disguises itself as productivity or responsibility — when it’s really rooted in a desire to feel safe in an uncertain world. She explores the illusion of control and the exhausting loop it creates with anxiety, highlighting the truth that no matter how much we plan, prepare, or perfect — we can’t guarantee outcomes, other people’s behavior, or how life unfolds.  This episode shifts the focus away from trying to control everything and toward something far more powerful: trust. Trusting yourself to handle whatever comes, trusting others to be who they are, and trusting that life can unfold in ways you couldn’t have planned.  If you’ve been feeling tense, overextended, or like you’re constantly trying to stay one step ahead of life, this conversation will help you learn what it looks like to 'let go', how to build tolerance for uncertainty, and why trusting yourself to handle whatever comes next is the real source of freedom. This episode allows you to loosen the grip, breathe a little deeper, and step into a more peaceful way of living.  Follow me on Instagram: @meganelisalawther Send me an email: Megan@theselfloveproject.ca
