Beloved...Do You See The Truth In The Mirror?

Facing the mirror, whether literally or metaphorically, can be daunting. Have you ever wondered what your reflection truly reveals about your inner self? Join us on this transformative episode of Robin's Nest as I draw inspiration from Michael Jackson's reflective anthem, "Man in the Mirror," and explore my own personal weight loss journey. This episode isn't just about external appearances but delves deeply into self-perception and the often-unseen aspects of our internal worlds. Together, we question whether we love or loathe what we see and how that affects our thoughts, morals, and personality. 

We're also taking cues from K. Michelle's insightful album, "I'm the Problem," and diving into the importance of self-awareness and personal accountability. Learn how acknowledging the narratives we create and confronting our self-inflicted wounds can lead to a profound shift in how we interact with the world. As we navigate this path of introspection, we uncover ways to foster healing and growth, setting the foundation for healthier relationships with ourselves and others. Tune in and let's embark on this journey towards becoming more authentic and empowered versions of ourselves.

Welcome to. Robbin's Nest the empowerment podcast with nourishment for the mind and spirit.

Robbin Sexton : 0:07

I was listening to Michael Jackson sing the song the Man in the Mirror and I've been going through a weight loss journey knowing a lot of times I would look in the mirror and I would hate what I saw.

Robbin Sexton : 0:24

Do you like what you see in the mirror? You might love your reflection. You are pretty, your eyes look good, your body is banging. Oh, when you look in the mirror, do you say I hate what I see, I hate my body, I hate my chin, I don't like my eyes, my stomach is too big, my butt is too flat or my butt is too wide.

Robbin Sexton : 0:53

But what about the internal mirror? Do you like what you see when you look deeper into your heart, when you look deeper into your thought pattern, into your mind, into your morals? Do you like your own personality or are you that nasty person because you don't even like your own self? Are you a cheater, a scammer? You hurt people because you've been hurt. What about the man in the mirror? Michael Jackson had a song about the man in the mirror. He said I'm starting with the man in the mirror. I'm asking him to change his ways. A lot of times we focus on everybody else but we don't start with the man in the mirror. We recognize that we have to start with fixing ourselves. I can't help anyone else if I'm broken. It's easy to point fingers at the other person and tell everyone what they did to hurt you, but what about the part that you played in it, even if it was just you allowing them to repeatedly hurt you? I have to start with the man in the mirror. It's time for me to change my own ways.

Robbin Sexton : 2:18

I was listening to the radio a few minutes ago and K Michelle has a new album entitled I'm the Problem. Can you look in the mirror and say I'm the problem? I keep allowing people to hurt me. I keep giving the wrong people access to me. I say hurtful things to my own self. I curse my own self out. It's my own internal thoughts that give me pause.

Robbin Sexton : 2:56

I'm in the mirror, I'm looking at it. I may love the outside, I may feel like I'm thick, but on the inside I'm nasty. What do you see when you look in the mirror? Not just the outside. You can work on that. You can go to the gym, you can go through weight loss, even surgery. What do you do with the internal mirror when it shows your own thoughts, your own apprehensions, the way you hurt your own self. What about your self-inflicted wounds? What about when you break your own heart? You disappoint your own self. Let's be like Michael Jackson. He said I'm looking at the man in the mirror and I'm asking him to change his ways, because before I can help you change yours, baby, I got to change mine too. This is Robbin from Robbin's Nest. If we don't like what we see in the mirror, it's time for us to change our own ways, and then I can help someone else.
