Episode 22: Accepting Who You Are (so you can change)

This episode discusses how accepting oneself, including both positive and negative aspects, can lead to change. Often, people try to change by hating themselves; this is an ineffective and unpleasant way to motivate change. Accepting yourself and acknowledging negative aspects can lead to a more effective motivation for change. Behavior can be counterintuitive and suggests that when you hate yourself, it can lead to a sort of split in personality, where one part is always beating up the other part.
