Hi!
Now that you’ve gotten a taste of using affirmations – from the last episode (05. Trust Yourself: Tips and Affirmation You Can Use Everyday) and episode #1 (01. You are Worthy of Happiness), today we will briefly review what is a positive affirmation and we will also touch upon when affirmations don’t work.
This episode also contains an affirmation you can use before a job interview.
It’s time to choose happy, no more living on autopilot ✈️.
Cheers,
Marie

Hello!
In today’s episode, I talk about how we can trust ourselves better, and I share a revelation I had during the COVID-19 pandemic and how it taught me to finally trust myself.
Building trust in yourself is key for improving your self-confidence which in turn can improve your decision-making skills.
Also in this episode, I give you the “Trust Yourself” affirmation from the Choose Happy affirmation card deck, and we say the affirmation together in a heart-centered way.
This is the first time I do this on the show and it truly touched my heart to do this with you 💕.
This positive affirmation for trusting yourself will help build your confidence and empower you as you make decisions for your everyday life.
If you’ve been finding you’re second guessing your decisions – turning to others for their opinions before you even know what YOU want to do – this episode is for you.
It’s time to trust your decisions and re-write negative self-talk standing in your way!
Cheers,
Marie

Hi!
In today’s episode, we explore our brain’s fixation on negative things – also known as the negativity bias. Why is it we can have a day where both positive and negative things happen yet, we only remember the negative things?
I’ll also give you tips for not letting that negative thing take over the potential of having a happy day. It’s time to nip it in the bud! 😊
If negative incidents are taking over your day, this episode is for YOU!
It’s time to choose happy, no more living on autopilot ✈️.
Cheers,
Marie

In today’s episode, we talk about using a vision board to jump start our thinking of what makes us happy 🙂.
The board gives you a visual reminder of your intentions – in this case – of what makes YOU happy – and that can help influence your daily thoughts and actions that you take in living your life.
This has been a powerful tool in helping me find what makes me happy again. I’m excited to share it with you! 💕
Let’s start uncovering what makes YOU happy!
Cheers,
Marie
