Radical Honesty

watching this video and realizing how confused I am about romantic love,
processing my thoughts out loud:
1 - look at me. (I'm so damn unattractive. could someone actually be attracted to me?)



2 - fat, old, frumpty-dumpty: me.



3 - but then how are beautiful people attracted to unattractive people? (I see this all the time!)



4 - is attraction about something other than physical looks?



5 - but I'm in love with a person, and I don't really even know exactly what they look like... (online love.)



6 - but they say men are so visual...



7 - and what about ugly people in beautiful relationships?



8 - I was crazy about someone once, and yet 100% not physically attracted to them!



9 - am I pretty?



10 - what did my love interests passed love interests look like? (could I ever compare?)



11 - I'm ashamed of who I am.

Can't get enough of her beautifully expressed wisdom....a voice of clarity beckoning us to our inner voice amidst the confusion of our irrational chaotic world today....thank you for being a beacon on my path.

Erica

Grateful for her knowledge, admire her passion to deliver truth and methods on how to help improve your overall life and relationships.

Leslie Green

This was an incredible talk!! Filled with so much meaningful information to apply to all relationships. “Separate listening from agreeing”!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Jane Vblogs

I admire this lady so much! She's definitely a gem! I'm learning a lot from her!

Maddie Marin

It was chilling when she mentioned : “How you treat others tells a lot about yourself” Much of the current society seems self consumed, blame, and poor me mentality. They (in general) talk of gratitude yet hearing a thank you in the course of one’s day is rare.

ColdsaltySwimmer

Oeff ! Esther is glorious! Her knowledge and wisdom should be spread like gospel. She has tremendous experience with people and her processing and enterpretation of society is fascinating. I love her. ❤❤❤❤
