Radically Loved® with Rosie Acosta

Hello Friends, 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!

This week on Radically Loved we are bringing back a meaningful conversation with Neuroscientist, Nicole Vignola, to explore the topics of negative bias, habits, visualization, growth mindset, and fear of failure. Nicole explains that humans have a negativity bias due to evolutionary reasons, but we can change our automatic patterns by acknowledging them and practicing new responses. She reminds us that fear never really leaves us, but we can get better at dealing with it by gradually exposing ourselves to discomfort and gaining evidence that we can overcome challenges.

If you're ready to embrace failure, and gain evidence that you can overcome it, this episode is for you!

Three reasons to listen to the whole podcast: 

1. Learn why negativity bias has evolved over time and how we can change our automatic patterns by acknowledging them and practicing new responses. 
2. Discover why allowing children to experience discomfort and failure is important for their development of resilience. 
3. Learn to cope with failure as an essential tool for personal growth and adaptability.
