Hey Beautiful 💓In this episode of To All The Girls Out There (TATGOT) , I talk about something that genuinely shifted how I see people and myself — the core conditions from Carl Rogers.It’s less of a “lesson” and more me sharing what I’ve been learning and how it’s been showing up in my life.I used to get really confused about how to hold my own beliefs while still being around people who think completely differently from me. I didn’t really know how to not judge people without feeling like I was losing myself in the process.Learning about empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard helped me make sense of that in a really simple way.In this episode I talk through:What empathy actually feels like in real lifeLearning to be honest with yourself without overthinking itAccepting people without needing to agree with themPractical examples of how this may show up in friendships, work, and everyday conversationsAnd steps you can take to become more open minded Things you may want to look at:Further reading on Carl Rogers' Core ConditionsLevel 2 Counselling Searcher (CPCAB)  ( this has a centre finder where you can find the closest centres that do it for you or you can do it online ;))Leave a message!contact📞: [email protected]👩🏽‍💻: toallthegirlsoutthere.comInstagram📷: @toallthe_girlssBe a Guest! google form

In this episode of To All The Girls Out There, I’m joined by a very special guest — my little sister, Khadijah — for an honest conversation about self-worth, friendships, confidence, loneliness, and staying true to yourself in a world that constantly pressures you to fit in.We talk about the reality of feeling different from your peers, navigating school and college, and why being alone is sometimes better than forcing friendships that don’t align with your values.Khadijah opens up about spending much of Year 10 alone, the lessons she learned from that experience, and how she eventually found genuine friendships by refusing to settle for connections that didn’t feel right.We also discuss:🩷 Self-worth and building confidence from within🩷 Learning to be alone without feeling lonely🩷 Friendship struggles and finding your people🩷 Peer pressure and staying true to your values🩷 Internal vs external validation🩷 Why confidence isn't arrogance🩷 Emotional regulation and learning not to react to everything🩷 Why not everyone has to like you🩷 Navigating friendships as a teenage girl🩷 Trusting yourself and embracing who you are📖 Resources Mentioned:• Research on emotions and emotional regulation • My episode on friendships and choosing the right people (on private podcast)• The quote mentioned in the episode: "If a blind person couldn't see your appearance, how would they describe you based on your character, energy, and the way you make others feel?"One of the biggest reminders from this episode is that two amazing people can exist at once.
