Finding the Guardian of Your Soul

Why it’s Better For You to Learn Through Joy, Not Pain

Episode Summary

Are you looking for a breakthrough in your love life? Have you made the decision to learn through joy, instead of learning through pain yet? Once Lisa finally made the decision to stop making dating and personal growth so hard, she opened herself up to more kindness, patience, and self-acceptance. This brought a new level of joy to her being and set the stage for Benjamin, the Guardian of her Soul, to waltz in. From her story, we can learn to drop our inner critic and judgment, to instead embrace the beauty in life. This week, you’ll learn how to start being kind to yourself, and to give yourself permission to learn through joy instead of pain. Lisa talks about how men can sense when you are putting up a front versus feeling aligned with your joy.

Quotes

• “It's not up to you what you learn, but only whether you learn through joy, or through pain.” - Marianne Williamson 
• “I think if you're not really authentically radiating joy, and happiness and positivity and self-acceptance, they're going to pick up on that.” 
• “I started learning through joy. I started being more loving and more self-accepting and more patient with myself. I knew that it would take time to integrate these new behaviors, but I also knew that with time and with awareness, I could start to do it differently.” 
• “It's very, very difficult for us to see ourselves the same way other people see us because we're not objective.”
