Believe in yourself, choose yourself

My decisions, my healing, my path was made possible by believing in myself. I couldn’t rely on others to approve of or understand me, so I had to learn to trust myself — my own wisdom, my own intuition, my own inner compass. (I was also fortunate enough to marry someone who modeled that strength for me.) Therefore it is not natural for me to depend on other people for the answers because I know the answers are within. I rarely experience cognitive dissonance or feel a need to validate my decisions because I am my own authority. I don’t allow others to force their belief systems on me, so I wouldn’t attempt to do the same.

I am not here to preach about trusting yourself, but I can show you that it’s possible. You have everything you need within. You do not need anyone’s approval to be yourself. Your own approval and alignment is more powerful than anything you can receive externally.

And allow me to remind you (because you already know) that you will make the greatest mark by simply being yourself and choosing your authenticity. Few things are more impactful than witnessing someone choose their own happiness and sovereignty. Think of the resonant effect that has on your community, your children, your family, your loved ones.

Do you want to see the people you love believe in themselves enough to take risks, choose joy, and have the confidence to be exactly who they are? Do you want them to feel more powerful than their fears?

So why not you?
