​Hello hello beautiful souls, are you having a good day?

Are you lit up today?

Remember to stay lit because this world needs more alive people.

I’m still lit up from attending Gabby Berstein’s live event in Beverly hills los angeles 2 nights ago. The event was called manifest your wildest dreams, many people asked questions around living in your life purpose and she shifted the focus to finding your purpose to becoming who you are. Focus on how you are feeling, who you can serve and who you want to be instead of being in your head about what you need to do. I actually really went into the event with no agenda, I feel like right now I’m in my perfect comfort zone, already living my dream life by my own design, I set my own schedules, work minimal and prioritize fun. I just love and want to be in the same room as other like minded women who invest in growing their minds and take personal development seriously like I do. So today I wanted to talk about being in the comfort zone. 

We hear this phrase way too often: “get out of your comfort zone” or “everything you ever wanted is outside of your comfort zone”

So in my opinion the wording should be changed a lil bit, because there is a huge difference between being in your comfort zone and a defeat zone. 

The difference between staying in your comfort zone and defeat zone is in your mindset and how you respond to challenges.

Being in your comfort zone usually means being in a familiar, safe state that is comfortable and minimizes stress. I actually love being in my comfort zone, there are just times like now where I’m perfectly content with where my life is and where it’s headed and I trust that I’m on the exact path I need to be. This becomes a very positive space for personal growth and relaxation and actually living my life.

However, when other gurus tell you to get out of your comfort zone means that if you are staying only within your comfort zone, it can stop your growth and limit your potential.

On the other hand, feelings of defeat suggests that you have faced difficulties and setbacks and have become overwhelmed and given up. So in my opinion I think sometimes if everything is running as you planned, it’s ok to stay in your comfort zone, but it’s not ok to stay in your defeat zone. 

This is why I felt it was important to put this episode out into the world so that you are aware there is a difference in the way you can think about and respond to challenges.

Comfort can promote defeat or growth, the choice is yours.

So be more aware of your mindset and reflect on your circumstances.

Are you really happy with being comfortable in life right now?

Because you are truly content and going exactly as planned?

Or are you only being comfortable because you are afraid to change, afraid to show up in a different way or you don’t believe your dreams can come true?

Be honest with yourself.

Take some time to reflect or journal these questions, then you will be able to see if you are in your comfort zone or defeat zone.

Feel free to message me privately and let me know if you have any new insights after listening to this episode.

Till next time, cheers to living your epic life.

Hello hello beautiful souls HAPPY NEW YEAR! Welcome to my show. This podcast  empowers and inspires you to be your best self.  I’m your host, Lucy Liu. Today I have a powerful message to share with you, as we enter the new year, we need to resolve to stop criticizing ourselves and  celebrate our integrity instead. My hope for you in the new year is to stop judging yourself! 

The start of a new year brings opportunities to refresh and set new intentions. Setting goals is great, but this year my wish for you is to focus on something just as important: self-compassion and acceptance. Ladies, it’s time to break out of the cycle of self-judgment and embrace the unique individuals that you are.

From societal expectations to internalized ideals, peer pressure can be overwhelming. 

1.The first step is to recognize the impact self-judgment and self-blame has on our lives. Also start with being aware of what triggers your self-judgment. Take some time to journal or reflect on how it affects your self-esteem? How does it affect your confidence? And how does it affect your overall happiness? Where are these judgements coming from? 

Let’s be honest, society bombards us with unrealistic standards of beauty, success, and perfection. It’s time to question these ideals and redefine success on our own terms. 

2. So the second step is to embrace your uniqueness because it is what sets you apart from others. Always remember: You are enough just the way you are.

3. Instead of being your own harshest critic, try to be your own biggest supporter. Challenge your inner critic, once you notice the inner negative self talk, step up to that inner voice and question it. 

4. Cultivating self-compassion is a transformative journey. Give yourself  the kind of kindness and understanding you would give to a friend. Recognize your strengths and celebrate your wins, no matter how small they are, celebrate them. When you embrace who you really are, you exude confidence and inspire others to do the same. I’m also constantly practicing these things myself, especially letting go of the need for external validation and focus on your own values ​​and passions because your uniqueness is your strength.

5. Avoid comparisons. Comparing yourself to others often fuels feelings of inadequacy and judgment. Unless you want to use comparison as a tool to motivate yourself. Refer to episode 200 about comparing yourself to others. Otherwise, stop judging yourself and avoid comparing yourself to others.

6. Forgive yourself for any mistakes. As long as we are breathing living beings, we all inevitably make mistakes. Acknowledge your mistakes, learn from your mistakes, but never judge yourself or blame yourself for past mistakes.

As we begin this new year, let’s decide together to stop criticizing ourselves and start celebrating the amazing women in our lives. As your journey towards self-acceptance continues, remember that the benefits are immeasurable. Join me on this powerful journey of embracing our authenticity and freeing ourselves from the chains of self-judgment.

Focus on your growth.

Focus on the present and the beautiful blessings ahead.

Focus on being consistent towards your self promises.

Focus on embracing YOU because you are 1000% worth it. 

Thank you for tuning in to The Lucy Liu Show. If you found today’s short episode inspiring, please share it with another amazing woman in your life. Together, let’s make 2024 the year of self-love and judgment-free growth. Until next time, embrace who you really are and remember that you are more than enough and you are remarkable!
