Loud: Accept Nothing Less Than the Life You Deserve

by Drew Afualo

You have every right to feel the way that you do and express it in whatever way suits you best.

No matter what happens to you, or when, you’ll always continue to grow and evolve, and that’s something to be grateful for.

They’ll use the anger as an excuse and ask for forgiveness because they didn’t actually mean what they said. But once the damage is done, there is no going back.

From a young age, we, as women, learn to prioritize other people ahead of ourselves, compromising our own boundaries out of fear of how we’ll be perceived.

This is your life. Don’t waste one second of it living for anyone but yourself.
