We hear it a lot these days that ‘loving yourself’ is the first step to a happy and fulfilling life. Putting that into action and practise can be hard thought. This is where inspiration and support can truly make a difference. Enter BTS (with a super funky, sharp and colourful choreo & vocals)! Through BTS Barbara has learned to truly fill her own cup up first, experience life fully and be more than a mum, friend, employee, etc. and tap into what it means to get to know and love herself. During this chat we dive into the story of how BTS found her and what massive impact these 7 humans from South Korea had so far in her life. Tune in and explore more around how truly loving yourself can change your life in ways you might not expect! During out time together we chatted about: Who are BTS and ARMY? Aussie ARMY FB Group and how that ties in with ‘love yourself’ Barbara’s own story on how BTS found her Examples of the impact that BTS’ music & message has on her – then and now! The importance of loving yourself The BTS Song that impacted her the most Her message to Australian ARMY More about Barbara dela Pena: 47-year-old single mum and now grand mum. My daughter is probably my biggest flex -- national ice hockey player for the Philippine Women's Team and state player for NSW, model, social media manager and new mum to the most beautiful baby girl. My own flex? Being Army since 2018, meeting new people and establishing friendships, helping out with the best fandom, traveling the world one BTS concert at a time and hopefully making a difference in this universe. 💜 Connect with Barbara: https://www.facebook.com/barbs.delapena/ Instagram: @barbiedollapena Twitter: @barbiedollapena Aussie ARMY FB Group Aussie ARMY IG Account Thanks for tuning into today’s episode of the Living on the B Side Podcast – Music.
