The #1 Love Lie - EP009
Manage episode 217344907 series 2413389
When you come across a seemingly inspiring meme on social media, it is tempting to hit ‘share’ and watch the ‘likes’ pile up without stopping to question whether the concept or idea is truly empowering. Do these perceived truths really motivate us? Or do they create an illusion of perfection that sabotages our success?
Today on Women’s Empowerment School, Sylvia addresses a listener request to discuss self-love and its impact on our relationships. She dismantles the popular meme, ‘You have to love yourself first before you can love someone else,’ explaining why she is taking a stand against it and how loving others first helped her develop compassion for herself.
Sylvia covers the three structures of truth, giving examples of each and describing the price we pay for sharing memes in the absence of discerning discussion. She also speaks to the illusion of connection that is nurtured by the viral spread of memes on social media. Listen in to understand the value of questioning memes and learn how to initiate thoughtful conversation when you share these ‘truths’ online and in the real world!

Sylvia’s definition of a meme as a concept or idea that sounds true
How the grammatical structure of a meme creates an illusion of truth
