Why loving relationships begin with self love.
Imagine what a relationship would be like if both people in the relationship were insecure, each one always thinking that the other was criticizing them, or thinking badly about them. Some of you don’t have to imagine, it’s the relationship you’re living in right now. Shana Campbell believes that every healthy relationship starts with a healthy dose of self love in both individuals. Nobody is really ready to love another person until they are confident and whole within themselves, accepting and loving who they are. Find out more on this episode.
Did you know that your love life is something you can consciously work on?
It’s true! You don’t have to sit around waiting for that right person to come along, you can be consciously working toward it. How? By becoming your very best, learning to accept yourself and be confident in who you are created to be. That way when “Mr. Right” does come along, you’ll be ready to engage fully without the fear and insecurity that have held you back for so long. Learn to make the most of the time you’re single rather than regretting it.
The world needs you to be yourself.
You were placed on the earth by God to be a blessing in very specific ways that are unique to you. There’s nobody else like you and nobody else who can do what you’re supposed to do. By becoming healthy and whole within yourself, you’ll be able to fulfill that role. Love Coach Shana Campbell says that you’ll also be ready to take on the challenge of a romantic relationship once you reach that point of wholeness, which is an added bonus! Find out more about Shana and her love coaching practice, on this episode of Happy Black Woman.
You can’t be successful in business when you don’t accept yourself.
Your business will be an outgrowth of who you are as a person. It’s going to reflect you for everyone to see. What kind of business do you think you’re going to build if you are always criticizing and berating yourself? It’s vital that you get your inner self healed and whole so that the business you want and the life you desire are possible on the highest of levels. Today’s guest, Shana Campbell talks about that a whole lot more, on this episode.

Thank you so much for this podcast!! It was a god send and I’ve been sharing it with everybody! I realized that I wanted a relationship cause all my friends and classmates were getting married and I felt left out.
