#130: Life on Your Own Terms (RERUN)
Being self-centered does not mean being selfish. It means putting yourself at the center of your own life instead of constantly abandoning your needs, values, and desires for everyone else.
Hilary explains why your relationship with yourself affects every area of your life, including your relationships, health, work, and finances. When you trust yourself to make decisions that protect your well-being, you create the emotional safety needed to show up with confidence.
She shares five core concepts behind living a SELF-centered life, including why you come first, why you are both the problem and the solution, and why self-sacrifice is not the same as generosity.
Real success is not determined by how other people respond to you. It comes from knowing you showed up honestly, expressed yourself fully, and stayed true to who you are.
