Have you ever thought about what you would share with a younger version of yourself? In this week’s episode, Kristina writes a letter offering insight into her newly graduated self, whom was about to set out into adulthood over 17 years ago. Through this letter she sheds light on experiences that have shaped the person she is today, while presenting encouragement to be still in the moments of struggle, stay the course, and not to live with regret. Highlighting the need to let go of feeling like a failure, she extends reassurance that she will be ok, perseverance will serve her well, and she will step into a future where she became the light amongst the darkness.

Take a moment and reflect on your past self. Give yourself grace and be grateful for your strength as you would not be who you are today without the person you were in the past. If your current self is in a state of hardship, be still and choose strong. You will get to a brighter future … we here at Nina’s Journey believe in you! Resources listed below.

What is love? What does it mean to love? This is really one of the most primal parts of being a human being … we all long for love. But where does the journey of love start? Kristina walks through how to define love, learning to visualize what it looks like individually. She will share her experiences in her childhood that set the stage for love and what that looked like as she stepped into adulthood. Only two years ago did she really learn what love was and where it starts, which is within.

There will be steps to take an inventory of how you interact with others and reconcile if that is how you treat yourself. Kristina challenges you to release this need for external validation and practicing intrinsic value. Take time, be still, and learn to love openly … starting from within.
