Welcome back to another episode of Bossing Up. I'm Taryn and today we're diving
0:16
into a topic that I believe is fundamental,
0:19
to not only our own growth but the growth of the world around us and loving ourselves and others.
0:27
In a world that can sometimes feel divided or even downright competitive,
0:34
I think it's important to ask ourselves why are we so often set up to see each
0:40
other's competition why do we sometimes want to see each other fail instead
0:45
of succeed the importance of self-love,
0:52
i believe everything starts with self-love when
0:55
you genuine genuinely love yourself your quirks
0:59
your flaws your uniqueness it sets
1:03
the foundation for how you interact with everyone
1:06
else self-love isn't about
1:09
being selfish or arrogant it's about
1:12
accepting yourself knowing your worth and
1:17
treating yourself with respect now we
1:22
truly embrace who we are we're less likely to feel insecure threatened or envious
1:29
of other's success right instead we begin to see others as inspirations not competitors.
1:40
We don't need others to lose
1:43
for us to feel validated we've already got that validation within ourselves
1:49
now let's take this concept a step further imagine if we could all see each
1:58
other as allies rather than competitors.
2:03
What if instead of waiting for someone to stumble, we'd shared them on and help them along the way?
2:13
So, in an ideal world, we would all want each other to succeed, right?
2:23
This is my dream. This is my biggest question.
2:32
If I had to ask a question to say, like, I had to put it this way.
2:36
Music.
2:42
If you had a question that you could ask whoever one question you got to ask my question would be.
2:52
Music.
2:56
Why does why do we want to see others fail and that's how I feel about this world is that,
3:10
it's it pains me because I watch and I feel others wanting,
3:24
each other to fail instead of succeed,
3:28
instead of cheering each other on and wanting each other to grow and to win
3:35
And that's why I created this podcast today,
3:38
because I want to share my insight into loving each other and wanting...

So, if we want a society that thrives, a community that innovates,
4:21
and a future that's brighter, then we need each other.
4:27
No one does it alone. Not even the biggest names or the most successful people in history. We can't do it alone.
4:40
We need to support each other. We create a space where everyone is allowed to
4:46
be the best version of themselves. And that right there is a powerful thing.
4:54
So why is it that in reality some people seem to actually root for others to fail?
5:03
Why do some people feel that they can only rise if others fall?
5:10
Often that mentality comes from
5:13
insecurity or lack of self-love if
5:17
others feel like they're lacking or they're
5:21
not good enough they may try to bring others down
5:24
to make themselves feel better now this is where the problem lies it's a coping
5:31
mechanism a defense but it's also a weak foundation No one ever built anything
5:39
meaningful by tearing others down.
5:44
Imagine... Music.
6:10
Other and encourage
6:13
one another we could create a civilization that's
6:17
more advanced and coherent a world that just works better now imagine a world
6:26
where everyone lifted each other up where we could all lean on each other learn
6:32
from one another and grow together.
6:37
That's a world where people are empowered, not defeated, where dreams are realized
6:44
because there's a community rallying behind them.
6:49
That's the kind of world I want to live in. How about you?
6:55
It's true that we don't want to
6:58
change everyone's mindset and we
7:01
can't but we can change our
7:04
own we can start today by cheering on others and showing up for people and remembering
7:13
that their success is not our failure their success is a win for all of us so So.
7:19
Music.
7:23
If there's one takeaway from today's episode,
7:28
I want it to be this. Love yourself deeply, first and foremost. Then extend that love outwards.
7:39
Support others and cheer them on.
7:44
And try and create a world where we all thrive together.
7:52
It all starts with one person and that's you one
7:56
shift in perspective one decision to lift others up instead of pulling them
8:02
down if we each take responsibility for creating that positive energy imagine what we could achieve,
8:17
thank you for tuning in today, if you enjoyed this episode please share it with someone that could use a little inspiration,
8:27

8:37
until next time keep bossing up and let's make this world a better place for all of us.
