You’re Perfect Just the Way You Are

Life can be very hard and confusing. It often seems when you take one step forward, you wind up taking five steps backwards, right? It’s okay and you’re okay. In fact, you’re more than okay.

Break Free of Fear for Love

Is fear holding you back from what you love? Sometimes, it certainly feels that way, doesn't it—like a giant force literally gripping you and causing you to stay stuck. If your heart is yearning to be free and express the love in it, it's just a matter of time before fear gets kicked to the curb--but not without some inner work first.
