You Are Not Broken: Why Your Breakthrough May Be Closer Than You Think | DIVO-Ted Talks

What if the thing you’ve been carrying all these years isn’t actually yours to carry?What if you’ve spent so much time believing you’re broken that you’ve forgotten you’re a living expression of something extraordinary?⸻Quote from the Episode:“You are a unique and beautiful expression of consciousness.”⸻DESCRIPTION:How much of your suffering comes from believing what other people have told you about yourself?In this heartfelt and deeply personal episode, Nicholas speaks directly to anyone who has ever felt unworthy, unforgivable, broken, or somehow less than. Drawing from yoga philosophy, Ayurveda, manifestation principles, and his own lived experience, he explores the powerful difference between who you truly are and the stories you’ve inherited about yourself.This conversation examines shame, self-worth, identity, healing, and the tendency to define ourselves by our mistakes, our failures, or other people’s opinions.
