In this deeply personal episode, Joree shares the mindfulness practice that truly transformed her life, lovingkindness, or metta. Rooted in Buddhist meditation, this heart-opening practice offers a path out of low self-worth, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment, and into self-confidence, self-compassion, and deeper connections to yourself and others. Joree reveals how repeating the simple phrases "May I be strong, may I be confident, may I be capable" became the foundation for healing her inner critic, rebuilding her self-concept, and transforming her relationships, first with herself, then with her daughters, and even with people she struggles with. You'll learn how to personalize this timeless practice, understand the neuroscience behind why it works, and discover how loving softens shame, nurtures forgiveness, and opens the door to true self-acceptance.
