advice on how to be yourself | podcast today I'm growing by growingannanas

check out my podcast TODAY I'M GROWING 🎙️💖
www.buzzsprout.com/2221807/share
Hey Team! Today I’m talking about growing and being yourself even when social media makes it hard. I've gone from a small place in Austria to the big city of Berlin and learned a lot about loving myself and not worrying about what everyone else thinks.
I'll share how tough it can be to try to fit in and look a certain way, but also how awesome it is to find friends who get you and to really like who you are.
Thank you so much for watching and supporting me. Don't forget to subscribe to my channel and leave a comment if you have any thoughts or questions. Remember, we're all in this together! 💜

    The best way to be yourself is to not try to be anyone else. The rest will sort itself out accordingly.

    As someone who doesn’t know you, I can say you are a beautiful soul inside and out. You don’t need that pretentious circle. You don’t need any Botox crap. You are beautiful just being you. Please don’t ever change that.

    I want to say thank you for your courage and trust in your audience. It takes a strong person to admit their weaknesses and their feelings. I felt your words very well, for the last two years I have been experiencing this very insufficiency. Not beautiful enough, not strong enough, not smart enough. These thoughts drive me into apathy and depression, sometimes I can't leave the house and lie on the couch, scrolling through instragram. I love your workouts and admire your physical and mental strength. Everything you do is important and incredibly valuable. Keep growing, don't give up. You always have you. And we, your audience, are the people who are always there Thank you for sharing your thoughts, it's very important for your people. And for me in particular ❤❤❤

    As a personal trainer I always believe we should practice what we preach but we are REAL people. We have moments just like every human being with emotions where we feel not in the best shape as there is a lot of pressure especially in the public eye however I say to myself I must punch fear in the face and work on myself consistently. I also see myself as not perfect but I don’t want to be too perfect either as it’s not real and wouldn’t be me! You are so right about your circle of friends. I have been working so hard that I have sacrificed my social life dramatically for my channel and my kids 😅 when I do ‘now and then’ go out I don’t feel the same as I used to ( I was wild and the last person out the door) but now I feel like a out of place in bars/clubs and would rather be a hermit! But a happy one! I am also single for 3.5yrs but happy I guess as I don’t have distractions.. I also don’t really have the time to really go out and meet anyone due to my kids and my work 😬 I am older so I am hapoy with who I am I you are right that does come with age a bit also! I would love more than anything for people to have each others backs and not criticise and make others anxious and fearful but it just doesn’t work that way in this world unfortunately so we have to look after ourselves. We have to strive to be the best version of ourselves and do what we are genuinely passionate about - It has to come from the heart and feel real ❤it does show if you are not! I love You are Unique Words, thank you are don’t forget how amazing and how far you have come! There are millions of people who genuinely love you! ❤Thank you for being real and inspiring ❤

    I think you often find yourself most by stepping into tasks and communities you don't usually know. Recently I've started my internship and I was so afraid of being there full time, not having my usual routine, not having a gym available etc. But in the past 2 weeks already I've discovered aspects about myself I didn't prioritize before. I am enjoying the time with the people I work with, and the rigidity of being the perfect bodybuilder just gets quiet because nobody there has the same background. It's hard too because in many situations I feel insecure and don't know what they want to see from me. But I try to stay authentic and so far, the universe has sent me many fortunate occasions there.

    I think that I am really obsessed with idea of self-acceptance... Whole me... So, I'd like to say that when we're copying someone or burying in our own self to fit in... we are not accept some of ours sides. And since we accept our imperfections this situation can be changed

    I really love the messaqge of this podcast, I feel like after most of others I end up feeling almost worse about myself than before, thinking about all the thigs I should be doing and it really makes a person think they are lazy and worthless, but this one felt really inspiring especially the not having to be perfect part, as growing up I always had this perfectionst tendency to be afraid to do things if I cannot execute them perfectly, but lately I've been learning how to be unperfect and still be happy

    im a 13 year old who struggles with body image. every time i do any workout with is considered as “beginner” makes me want to cry at the end. i know i just started and i know it’s going to be hard to love myself. but i just find it so hard to love myself so i’m trying so hard to do these workouts but i feel s o hard to be motivated or saying and knowing this is only the beginning, this is only day 2 that i’m following some of these workouts and i know it’s ridiculous how i feel so discouraged and shameless only at the second day so im just trying really hard right now but feeling super discouraged and disgusted from myself because i’m already “tired”. so i just hope this channel will make me happier and finally confident in my body.:)

    You are great person, you dont need to explain yourself As you are, you are doing great job, time to time I struggle As well, to be Natural is what i like As well, but I dont judge people who wants to do something to máme them feel better. For someone its training, for other is botou or surgery, depends on the age and if you are after kids etc. I wouldnt judge people for making stuff to feel fhemselves better, whatever it IS, what is good for some doesnt need to maybe understand and its ok, even friends dont need to understand, does not mean can not support in your decision,Just do your stuff, what makes you feel happy, you dont need to explain anybody. Im learning that as well, sometimes we can get lost.I like the way you do even I might not understand some things. Be yourself❤

Being single is not appreciated.. Though many suffer their own life... Aligning into social expextations and social media expectations are really funny.. Being artificial is accepted as normal.

    Jesus loves you so much. To Him, you are worth dying on The Cross. Everything you are struggling with, whether it is anything lustful, anxiety, heartbreak, trauma, fear, thoughts, grief, anger, or anything, God paid the price on The Cross for all of that. He took it upon himself and gave in return to us freedom, joy, peace, love, rest, and salvation if only we accept it and believe. If you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is lord, you will be saved. May God bless you❤
