"I am the most important person in the world to me. I accept that person and I admire that person, and I will do everything in my power to see that person's dreams come true."
I discovered self-love this week... And it is my life that is beginning, finally. Self-love is SUCH a big gift that you can give to yourself. It is AMAZING ! Please... love yourself. I can't emphasize how it is the most crucial element of your happiness and well-being. Self-love.
I am so happy that you are discovering the power of self love! It is indeed SUCH an important part of our lives. It is indeed the very foundation of our wellbeing, success and happiness. Really happy to hear it :)) Blessings
"our heads are filled with thoughts from other people that we let in...and it's not true but we let it infest us". So true. I had the same. My father was incredibly critical of me. It took a lot of work but I finally corrected those thoughts and I absolutely adore the woman that I am. It requires practice, but it works. Blessings
I am the most important person in the world to me. I accept that person and I admire that person, and I will do everything in my power to see that person's dreams come true." God's willing. What a profound speech. Thank you Caira
Only 2400 views... this is a gem and should have hundreds of thousands of views! Caira is super talented and her poetry as well as the context and delivery of the talk was captivating to say the least. This is what we all need to hear.
I needed to watch this because I struggle with self-love and confidence. This gave me life. It woke up a beast in me that ive been hiding. thank you I LOVE MYSELF
I got goose pimples when I heard this: "If your kids are failing it is because you are spending too much time pressing the outside world into them instead of pushing what is inside of them into the outisde world and they can feel that and they don’t like that". It is so true!
"I really have a lot of respect for you.. Smile senseless, ponytail reckless, heart- 2k GOLD. Even when the world tried to spin us 3 shades of grey.. You were ALL THAT.. and a bag of chips." I've watched this so many times, I've lost count. Every time, my eyes tear up with how powerful this video is. 💕
Hi Caira, loved this video! Could you recommend self help/confidence books you have enjoyed or heard great things about? I am an african american struggling with self love and confidence and would love to learn more. This video was very helpful
Literal applause by me sitting alone in my room ensued after watching this. Coming from someone who has spent most of her life failing to love herself, struggling with low self-esteem and completely in denial of it this is one of the most important speeches I have ever heard. I am in the beginning steps of my journey to truly loving my self and encouraging others to do the same, and the delivery of this message has helped me along in ways I am so thankful for. You are a beautiful soul with a beautiful vision. Thank you!
I loved this TED talk. She is such a powerful young woman and she is right her energy makes ppl want to gravitate toward her. I watched this four times already. Radical self love
Amazing! I doubt anyone feels qualified to do a TED talk. It is the human experience. Caira Lee nails this as without loving ourselves we have little to give to another!
I felt everything in this Ted Talk. I too felt "not good enough" when I was chosen to present at a conference, I had to practice so much and tell myself, "I do deserve this, I worked for this, I own this." THANK YOU Caira Lee.
Be...Be Blessed and Know...You are Phenomenal and You don't owe anyone an apology...AAAmen! Be Phenomenal in Your right now...anyhow!! AAAmen!! God's Love & Blessings! Meditate on the Book of Genesis
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you confirmation that I'm headed in the right direction even if I feel like I'm going backwards, I'm still moving forward because I'm a fighter and we don't give up. 🎉🎉🎉💪🏾
Your words have always resonated in me. Even the night we spent in the streets of ny enjoying the real ness around us. I miss your spoken words. Hope to hear more from you. You are a Goddess of beauty remember that!!

lotusvocals I came here tired of my old thoughts of myself and desperate to change so much inside... wondering if I could ever.

Excellent very heart felt and engaging talk by the very wise Mr. Lee, reminding us all of the fundamental importance of radical self love to one's own optimal well being and all of society. Compassion must be internal before it is external. I found the more my self compassion increase it did for other people and other species, I am now vegan as well as my self love does not allow for the unnecessary pain and suffering caused to feeling animals in factory farms. When we radically, infinitely love ourselves we know in our hearts that we and all of life is precious.
❤️ I watched this 5 years ago when it was first uploaded, and watching it today in a different season of my life it still has the same impact (if not more powerful). Thank you @xpriestess. ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾 radical self love

This is very good. I am watching this as recommended by Transformation Coach Mashudu on her Self-Love course. This is sooo good. Radical Self Love is everything. I even shared with the ladies in ImPower'd Woman Book Club. This is exciting!!!
Thank you so much! Inspiration, great heart, true heroine, someone for us to see rising before we rise. I thank you for showing us how it's done - how we can live, how we can breathe, how we can rise and show the world that the people who inhabit the earth matter to themselves and to it: thank you, Caira Lee - you are more than an inspiration - you are beloved by all.
I really loved this presentation. It was so on point. I listened to Gala's and while the topic is the same the message is very different and really for different audiences. I really hope Caira Lee gets the exposure she deserves and the world needs. Loved It!! #blackgirlmagic #radicalselfworth

That's deep!!
"I am the most important person in the world to me. I accept that person and I admire that person, and I will do everything in my power to see that person's dreams come true."
Beautiful message. Loved the poetry too. ❤

I come back to this video often, for years now. Thank you Caira.
You're welcome my love!
"our heads are filled with thoughts from other people that we let in...and it's not true but we let it infest us". So true. I had the same. My father was incredibly critical of me. It took a lot of work but I finally corrected those thoughts and I absolutely adore the woman that I am. It requires practice, but it works. Blessings
Can I ask you about your process? I'm currently going through the same challenge
Me too what was your process
Girl, what wisdom you have and share with me and others?

"I'd spit myself pick up lines from the sky, so that she knew someone wanted her but she didnt know why"
I'm tingling at the energy she brings to life. She is truly inspirational.
My heart is overflowing with gratitude! Thank you Caira Lee!

Septembers Latest agreed
I got goose pimples when I heard this: "If your kids are failing it is because you are spending too much time pressing the outside world into them instead of pushing what is inside of them into the outisde world and they can feel that and they don’t like that". It is so true!
Thank you infinite spirit
Great message...so many of our youth need to learn this now so they don't become "lost" adults. Truly inspirational!
The world needs people who have come alive
