Because loving yourself is ultimately about self-acceptance, about embracing every part of who you are. And that's never just one thing.”

And it doesn't matter where you sit in this world, poor or rich, famous or not, we all need to be loved in the right way.”

The only way you can be mistreated is by allowing yourself to be mistreated, and that was something I did over and over again. Somehow, I needed to find that glimmer of self-respect, buried deep inside, that would allow me to say: I am never going to let that happen to me again. I needed to learn how to stand up for myself in a different way, but I didn’t know how.”
