Episode 3: Jealousy is just a map to your desires
Jealousy/envy is a normal human emotion, but it’s often looked at as a negative one. Oftentimes, you FEEL it in your body — heaviness in your stomach & tightness in your chest. It's uncomfortable, so it’s easier to just push the feeling away. However, resisting the emotion can lead to feelings of insecurity. Instead of allowing jealousy to show us what we lack - LET’S USE IT AS INSPIRATION! Let’s use it as a map to uncover your secret desires or unmet needs.
In this episode, you will learn:
What jealousy actually means (1:53)
How using jealousy as inspiration helped Amanda launch Embrace Her Evolution (4:30)
Using The Jealousy Map (9:10)
