Sometimes the only person we can rely on is ourselves, and that’s not always a bad thing. When we look in the mirror, we see ourself. We see a HUMAN who deserves so much, yet we spend too much time comparing ourself to a world that requires us to be impossibly perfect or worrying about things that are actually letting fear win when we could have leaned into strength. All this to say, you’re not al...
