Beauty filters are found on almost every social media platform. Some range from small changes to lighting to bigger changes like changing your whole facial structure. While it is nice to use them when you're not feeling like your best self, it can cause a lot of self-doubt down the road. In this episode, I talk about why I think using beauty filters long term can be harmful to your essence of self-love.

A lot of the time we go throughout our lives surrounded by people who don't believe in us and discourage us from chasing our dreams but in this episode, I am here to tell you that it's okay to let people think whatever they want about you as long as you never let it affect how you see yourself. A lot of people's hate is just a projection of how they see themselves and has nothing to do with what you can and can't achieve. Use people's lack of faith in you as motivation to show them that their ceiling is not your ceiling! 😎

The fact that we all get judged at least once in our lives is a universal experience. Everyone has faced judgment before; for many of us, it makes us feel like we are not enough. The truth is that you should never take what others say about you to face value because what actually happens is that people cover up their own insecurities by placing their attention on someone else (you). In this episode, I explain why you should stop caring about others' perceptions of you and some awesome points I've learned that helped me grow out of this. P.S. Live your life to the fullest, you only have one to live.
