Hi there, I’m Mando Gonzalez and Welcome to The InLovely Podcast. Together, we’ll create a life full of growth, joy, and love. Learning to love yourself, others and the world around you can be a scary and difficult thing. Good thing we have each other! If
Newton's Third Law is everywhere.
Pain is always going to be in our lives. What are you going to do about it?
Our friends can be our heart and soul, our rock that we depend on every day...until life decides to physically take them away from us. What do we do? How do we maintain a long-distance friendship with them? All we have to do is adapt and empathize.
There are things that we do that make us difficult partners. Whether is setting expectations in the relationship, not loving ourselves, or being a source of negativity, these bad habits are feeding off into other people. No wonder they don't want to be with us! What can we do to become more loveable people?
The past can haunt us if we don't know how you be in the present. Our partner's former lifestyle and choices can make us question everything about ourselves. If we help each other double down on what is working NOW, we won't have any room to focus on the unchangeable.
Other people will hold us to high expectations and standards, and if we don't meet them, they want us to think that we let them down. What they think of our performance is not important. How we value our effort and learn from our experience is important.
Infatuation gives us the rush of falling in “love.” We lose sleep, can't stop thinking about them, and can't breathe without them...but does that mean it's love? Love needs to be an anchor that keeps us steady in times of turbulence when our dream starts to fade away. Infatuation can only make us feel so much, we need love to help us do what is needed.
Our friendships can be a sanctuary of peace and positivity, or they can turn into a cage of toxic negativity. If we've become sucked into a toxic life, it doesn't have to stay that way. We can use empathy and space to give ourselves (and them) the healing needed to grow.
Everyone talks about being grateful for what you have, but how can we start practicing gratitude today? What are are small steps that we can use to be thankful for everything in our life? Let's thank everything!
The negativity in our own mind isn't our own. It's been planted from somewhere else and it's trying to protect us! It's not doing a very good job tho. Here's how we can switch out our eyes and stay on offense.
Is our lack of self-love beginning to affect our partner? Why can't we find the love and support that we're desperately in need of? Loving who we are can be messy but it doesn't mean we need to lose someone else in the process. We can nurture who we are along the way.
There will be a point when we all will face a wall. It's not a matter of if, but a matter of when. So when it does happen, how are going to be the hero?
Motivation, like any emotion, will come and it will go. Does that mean we'll never be motivated? Are we a lost cause if we want to feel motivated? We need adjust our sights on our drive and our purpose if we want to win.
If the group is going down, they may want to drag us down with them. Peer pressure to follow in the footsteps of others can be dangerous if we're not mindful of our environment. Here are some tips to help make better decisions on your own AWAY FROM THE GROUP!
We need to fail. Everyone who has ever done anything meaningful has failed. So we will also. The people we fail in front of will always have something to say...but it's not about them...
We don't need to lose a boyfriend or girlfriend to feel the pain of a breakup. Losing a friend is very difficult to get through, but it doesn't have to be the end.
It's Valentine's Day and everywhere we look, we see everyone else boo'd up with baes and that...there's us. Is it bad if we're single on Valentine's Day? Why Doesn't Anyone Want Me? Today we discover how to be our own Valentine!
The people who lash out on us with their our insecurities, fears and doubts may mean well, but their negativity has no place in our own minds. In this episode, we learn how to stand up for ourselves by fighting fire with water.
The Automatic Negative Talks in your head will randomly, almost intentionally, sabotage your happiness with whatever bullshit it's trying to feed you. In this episode, we'll learn how to look into our ANTs, take them apart, and create more positive self-talk.
Wake up excited, go to bed exhausted. Fill your day with purpose.
Society has been telling us that we're not enough. Everyone else has placed their fears and expectations on us, and now we can't accept who we are. Let's move away from the pack and stand up for ourselves.
If we're going to influence others to help them, then we have to make sure that we're doing it for them, not ourselves. Our perception of them can get in the way of what they truly want.
Break-ups can hurt when we decide to let down our walls and let someone else in...only for them to leave us empty. How can there be any good in that? When you think there's nothing left, you always have yourself.
What will leave some of us stuck in place and others marching ahead to reach their goals is how we think. How we choose to think every day is the secret to unlocking your growth potential. Make a decision to grow every day.
Our ego has been forming since the day we were born. Life experiences and how we have responded to them have helped create who we are today. Sometimes our ego is our friend, other times not so much. When we learn to starve our insecure and fixed ego, we unlock our potential for growth.
Who you are today...the good, the bad, and the ugly...is enough. Today, as you come, is who you are meant to be. Use who you are today to make the most of your life.
What we tell ourselves is the most valuable asset we have. What are we saying? Using your own self-love mantra gives you the power to bring joy and compassion into your own life.
The insecurities we have are keeping us from living our life freely. We're using what other people say and where we think we should be to decide how valuable we are. In today's episode, we explore the problem with perception, letting go of the uncontrollable, and improving our mindset.
In today's guided meditation, we turn our attention to our breathe and forgiving our mistakes.
Forgiveness is a key that can open many doors, but who deserves to walk through it? Are we worthy of it? Are the ones who hurt us worthy of it? Is forgiveness something everyone can have?
We all deserve a chance to learn and grow from our mistakes. Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door to healing.
