What’s the secret to lasting friendships? How does queer community show up through the ebbs and flows of life? And what’s the REAL story behind the “YMCA” song? In the first episode of Silver Linings, The Old Gays dive into an essential part of queer life: chosen family. They discuss the vital love, support, and sense of belonging that community provides, especially during life's toughest moments. They open up about what “queer” means to them, how chosen family has impacted their lives, and how to maintain close bonds over time–including their love for each other! “We’ve come a long way, baby.” Family isn’t just what you’re born with; it’s the people who show up, shape you, and stick around.

What to do if the inner critic shows up when compiling your list?
Why list journaling works best when you sit with it.
Remember how loving words can elevate and inspire.
What would happen if the self-love switch was activated all over the world?

It takes courage to cultivate self-love -- especially if you've been shut down in the past and told that you are bragging or a big head. Allowing yourself to create a self-love list can open the gateway to more courage, confidence, and appreciation for who you are.
What's more, the more self-love you feel, the more loving you can be towards other people (because you have more love to give).

This week's journaling prompt.
Write a list of things you love about yourself?
Expansion activities:
Ask yourself WHY you've put your answers on your list.
Notice how you feel as you add to your list.
Also, check out the BestSelf Co. range of journaling tools:
1. Creating Your Live List [$5 investment].
2. Transform Fear to Focus [$5 investment].
3. 52 List Journaling Prompts [a free tool].
4. Journaling options... Self Journal & Scribe.

When we encounter unexpected change, the shift in experience can knock us off our centre. Certainty is replaced with unpredictability, and that can leave us feeling exposed, vulnerable, and even unsafe. When our emotions are high, intelligence can be low. In turn, it's harder to think clearly. This can lead to inertia and a feeling of stuckness. The spiral gets reinforced! "When there's chaos in our lives, being able to come back to ourselves, recalibrate, and feel grounded in who we are is a powerful way to navigate life's ups and downs." Journaling is a powerful tool that can help you empower yourself in moments like these. In turn, you can connect with your inner wisdom, clear your head, and get clarity on what to do next. Tune into this episode to discover three powerful techniques that you can use together to move through a challenge and empower yourself. We're exploring: What is empowerment? Feeling out of control because of external circumstances and situations. When our emotions are high our intelligence is low. Journaling as a gateway tool to navigate triggers. Three techniques to find your centre. "When we find that calmer place, the intelligence returns, the answers show up and we feel more empowered to move forward." How to use stream of consciousness journaling to uncensor your expression. The power of acknowledgement and radical honesty. Lubricating throughs with journaling prompts. Tapping into your intuition through journaling prompts. Creating momentum through lists to overcome inertia. "Pure expression is super potent." This week's journaling prompts. 1. Capture a stream of consciousness. 2. Ask yourself, What do you know? What do you need to know now? 3. Write a list of all the things you can do.
