We can only step into love when we leave our fear behind.
it’s only natural of course I’ve changed, darling . . . I’ve grown.
much better at showing up as that person in our relationships with our friends and family. Be unapologetic when it comes to your needs. They are, at the very least, deserving of being seen and heard.
Stress and anxiety are unavoidable visitors. Let us accept this. When they come, acknowledge their arrival, evaluate what invited them in, and recognize that they are guests, not permanent fixtures.
Release the energy of more, more, more and replace it with the energy of thank you, thank you, thank you.
We all take risks, but if we want to master risk-taking, we must learn to do so without attaching anxious energy to our decisions.
True confidence comes from affirming ourselves regularly and treating ourselves kindly.
When we live with honesty, positive intentions, fairness, love, integrity, and transparency, we do not need to spend our time explaining ourselves to others. Explanations are necessary only when our actions require justifications, and justifications are necessary only when our intentions are murky. Live your life with clear and good intentions and you will never have to spend your time explaining what you do or who you are.
Love yourself enough to walk into only the rooms and situations that show care and love for you. Love yourself enough to walk out of the rooms that harm you in any way. Love yourself enough to hold the people who harm you accountable for their words and actions. Love yourself enough to express your wants, your needs, and your desires. Love yourself enough to tell the truth. Love yourself enough to keep yourself safe. Love yourself enough to say enough is enough when enough has become enough.
“Don’t wait on anyone to tell you what you are worth. You have to be the first person who knows what you are worth and can say what you are worth.”
When we know our value and can express our value, we are able to teach others how to honor what we bring to the table.
There can be no flow without the spirit of flexibility. Allow yourself to be flexible.
To be in flow means to be able to move through the world with the ability to roll with whatever comes up.
Let go. Let what is meant to be . . . be. What is meant for us flows freely in harmony with us, not against us.
The triumphant are celebrated not because they win every time but because they never quit when they lose.
We cannot always control what happens to us, but we always have the power to leave any situation feeling stronger and wiser than we were before. There is an education waiting for us within all of our experiences, we just have to decide what we do with it. Choose to allow what you go through to fuel your growth rather than stunt it.
Just because someone disagrees with us does not mean that they are against us.
