I’ve watched this many times over the years….today I decided to watch it again because I’ve been in my head a lot this week.
Every time I watch this I learn something new…I see a new perspective…And I remember just how beautiful I am on the inside.
Your relationship with YOU is the absolute most important relationship to have with anyone on this earth. Do everything you can to protect it, nurture it and continue to flourish.
The brighter you show up the more others see that beauty from within. No matter what anyone else says and or does to try and dim that light…it can not be dimmed.
Show up authentic and vulnerable…we think that will dim the light but it does not….that is part of the brightness that shines!
I have so much to share…more to come…but for now I hope you take the time to watch this video because it is full of gems to take with you on life’s journey.

They wanted to enjoy social events, special celebrations and just everyday family time around the dinner table feeling progress, not failure of perfection and guilt.
