You know those moments of regret that still haunt you from your PRE-growth journey? All those drunk hookups, toxic friendships, and cries for love & attention... yeah, those moments. Those are all thanks to EMOTIONAL ILLITERACY, aka the lack of control over our emotions and our inability to healthfully cope.

On the other side of the regrets, missteps, and "WTF" moments is EMOTIONAL HEALTH. And today's guest Ali McGregor is joining us to share how she found her way back to peace, self-love, and resilience after a long stint of illiteracy, unworthiness, and unmet expectations.

ALI'S TWENTIES THOUGHTS:

One of my proudest moments was finally turning inwards and truly loving my body, no longer being so nasty and negative towards it. Being able to catch myself now and having that awareness has been like letting go of 100 pounds of dead weight like I'm coming back to me.
Along the way, I found out a lot of what I DON'T like. It's like finding a needle in the haystack... You just have to start somewhere and figure it out along the way. But if you sit around and wait for the moment, it's just never right.
You can be CREATIVE. You don't have to be stuck in these cookie-cutter positions that everyone has already done. You might not know what you want to do today because that job might not be created. So go design & create it yourself!
Pursue anything RELENTLESSLY and just go for it. And know that it's not a failure if something doesn't go right. It was just a learning lesson along the way.
