EP161: How to Have a Better Relationship with Yourself

The Define Success Podcast with Matt Lupi

Welcome to another insightful episode of the Define Success podcast hosted by Matt Lupi. In this episode, we dive deep into the profound question: Why do we need better relationships with ourselves?

Matt Lupi reminds us that we are with ourselves 24/7, and in life, we need to be our own best friend, harshest critic, biggest supporter, and accountability partner all in one. After all, if you can't love yourself, how can anyone else? Your life dramatically changes for the better when you love the person you see when you look in the mirror.

Matt shares his personal journey of self-discovery and transformation. Growing up in a loving family with access to education and opportunities, he found himself coasting in his later teenage years, feeling stuck and unfulfilled. It was then that he had an identity crisis, questioning who he was and who he wanted to become because he wasn't in love with his current self.

He embarked on a journey of self-improvement, spending over a year being selfish at times, focusing on his physical and mental health, and distancing himself from negativity. Years later, Matt is a testament to the power of self-love and personal growth.
