        <![CDATA[<p>"It's very important when you heal, you have to stop surrounding yourself... with insecure people. Because they're going to poison your life from the inside out."</p><p>In this raw and vulnerable Valentine’s Week special of <em>Heal with EQ</em>, Nadia Fati strips away the candy-coated advice about "hooking a man" to talk about the only relationship that truly matters: the relationship with yourself.</p><p>If you find yourself constantly settling for "breadcrumbs" of affection, dating potential rather than reality, or feeling lonely despite being surrounded by people—this episode is your wake-up call.

        <![CDATA[<p>Happy New Year, and welcome back to <em>Heal With EQ</em>. 🥂</p><p>Why is it that we set big goals for the New Year, yet subconsciously feel unworthy of achieving them? In this powerful season-opening episode, host Nadia Fati explores the disconnect between our conscious desires and our subconscious programming.</p><p>If you are operating from a "closed heart" or a nervous system stuck in hyper-vigilance, you will always sabotage the very success you’re chasing.

        <![CDATA[<p>In this episode of Selfies of the Mind, we explore the journey from *fearing rejection* to *embracing self-acceptance*—a theme close to my heart. Many of us struggle with rejection in personal, professional, and romantic relationships, often allowing it to define how we view ourselves. Today, I’ll share my experiences and reflections on overcoming these feelings and discovering self-worth from within.</p><p>Listen in for insights on:</p><p>- Viewing rejection as a reflection of our relationship with ourselves</p><p>- The role of emotional intelligence in developing self-worth</p><p>- Practical tools to move from external validation to inner strength - How to embrace self-acceptance without changing who we are.</p><p>Through storytelling, we’ll uncover how even painful moments can become sources of personal growth and resilience.</p><p>This episode invites you to take a step closer to self-acceptance, where your true worth is acknowledged and celebrated.

I share my own journey of embracing vulnerability in both personal and professional spheres, turning it into a source of strength and authentic connection.
