It’s often said that we become like the people we spend the most time with… and in my experience this is true…

But it’s not just the people - it’s everything around us. The books we read. The content we absorb while online. The conversations we engage with. The spaces we work and live in.

Our environment is either lifting us up, or holding us back. And the wildest past? Most of us don’t even realise it!

That’s why on today’s episode of I Love Me The Podcast, we’ll be exploring how you can tweak your environment for success and greater self-love:

- How to surround yourself with people who expand you into your potential…

- Why your physical space influences your mindset more than you might think…

- And how small shifts - like the content you consume and the habits you build - can create massive change in your life.

For when you change your environment, you change your reality.

About me…

My name is Tamra Mercieca and I’ve been studying and teaching self-love worldwide for 20+ years now. In 2011 I launched my online school Getting Naked where I offer programs to help people strip off the stories and childhood conditioning, so they can fall in love with themselves.

While I go by many labels - mumma, wife, tea lover, drummer - professionally I’m known as a Self-Love Therapist, Writer and Women’s Pelvic Health Guide, qualified in over a dozen physical and mental health modalities. I’m the author of two books, have been published in dozens of print and online publications, appeared on TV many times, and love to share the teachings of self-love at yoga and spirituality festivals.

Personally, my journey began when I worked out how to overcome suicidal depression and anxiety (and get off my meds). I then went on to create a ten-session program where I now help others do the same.
