Radically Loved® with Rosie Acosta

Hi I’m Rosie Acosta. I am a Meditation Teacher; Speaker and Author of You Are Radically Loved: A healing journey to self-love. I grew up in East Los Angeles during the 92 La Riots and it set me on a troubled path for many years. I didn’t grow up with mentors in my life, so I turned to reading as many books as I possibly could to learn about life’s purpose. In my journey as a First Gen-Mexican American, I found having these conversations gave me insight, support, and inspiration. So, I decided to create a place where I could share these conversations with my community. The Radically Loved Podcast was born! How do we create a radically loved life? Come have a sit with me so we can discover all things mindfulness, spirituality, self-love, and overall healthy living. Please be sure to share the episodes that you love and also leave us a review!

5 Powerful Quotes from This Episode

[11:22] “As a young child, you should just be enjoying your life, enjoying being a kid, you know? And not feeling all this insecurity, and all these feelings of, ‘Oh my gosh, I'm not good enough for my clothes, don't look like their clothes, or my teeth are crooked, and I'm not pretty because they have perfect teeth.’”

[28:44] “When you finally get to a place where you see the light, and it's shining on you, you feel that warmth, that of being in dark and cold for so long is phenomenal. And I owe it all to them. I owe everything to my parents.”

[30:54] “When you're there for other people, beautiful things can happen. And that could lead to such a beautiful road of friendships and relationships.”

[38:25] “God has a plan for you in your life. And sometimes we have to endure the storm, we have to endure the desert, but many times, God will just take care of you and he will get you out of that place.”

[39:18] “But know that you have so much inside of yourself that can get through anything—that you're powerful, you're brave, it's okay to cry, it's okay to question. It's also okay to be strong, and to try to be positive, and to feel the way that you want to feel, but just know that there is a plan that you will see the rising sun again. That there is hope in the midst of so much darkness.”
