The Self Love Diaries
By Susan Marie
The Self Love Diaries is absolutely, one hundred percent, a selfish endeavor, to start loving myself. While starting this podcast for me, I am hoping other individuals can relate to my struggles of self-sabotage, need for validation and distrust in oneself. Each week I will be exploring different aspects of self-love, in order to further my journey and begin loving myself more fully!!
