Leaving Something (or Someone) You Love

TONYA LEIGH
About this episode

It’s all in the mind!

 

Welcome to today’s episode of the ‘School of Self-Image’ Podcast with host and self-image coach, Tonya Leigh, where personal development meets style. This a go-to podcast for women who desire to transform their self-image so that they can create mind-blowing results in their lives.

 

Will you agree if I say love can either be the most beautiful experience or the most painful when being left behind? These kinds of experiences are part of one’s life which is inevitable. It’s in our nature to feel and be part of the process. But at the end of the day, it’s still your choice.

 

Leaving something (or someone) you love is a situation that most of us have experienced in life, right? As I know the emotions and thoughts might be overflowing, but you really have to decide whether to be stuck where you are or make a stand to move forward with your life.

 

It all comes back to your choice ~ are you gonna be the same version of yourself forever? Or are you gonna leap yourself up, act smart, and accept the situation for good?

 

So if you’re unsure yet of which one to choose, listen to find out how you can turn this leaving situation into something positive and bright!

What I Cover In This Episode:

1:34 - How to figure out the reason you’re leaving

4:17 - Why you should start to take responsibility

6:10 - How to know if a person, situation, or experience belongs in your future

8:29 - The importance of having a niche

10:17 - Pointers #1: Don’t second guess yourself

12:26 - Pointers #2: Be ready and be willing to feel the discomfort of leaving

14:29 - Pointers #3: Spend time being grateful for that person or that situation

16:41 - Pointers #4: Make sure to have your own back

17:51 - Pointers #5: Be okay with people being upset and disappointed

18:04 - Pointers #6: Have the time to look toward where you're going

21:24 - What is your greatest act of love

Quotes:

“You are your own answer.”

“Here's the secret, the success is within you. As when you have a successful self-image, you can make any niche work.”

“Just make sure you're leaving for the right reason. You are leaving so that you can grow and evolve and place yourself in expansive environments. You're not leaving to find something outside of you to fix your feelings.”

“You get to decide how you feel no matter where you are. And you can also place yourself in places where it's so much easier to feel the way you want to feel.”
