“I believe (maybe to a fault) that we can take care of ourselves and heal. And there's a level to accepting where you're at.

“Since the dawn of time, there has been enough money to go around. Unfortunately, we have been told stories that there is not enough.

I have empowered …

“I had no idea how much I was ignoring my self-worth in these situations and how I wasn't showing up for myself in the way that I really needed to.
