Learning to love myself, healing mentally and emotionally, overcoming childhood trauma, and even self induced trauma from past choices. Taking that long hard look in the "mirror" and realizing that in some cases along your life's journey, you were the toxic one... Evolving and growing into my ideal version of myself. Becoming the person who I always felt I was deep inside, but too insecure and concerned of others judgement to be unapologetically myself, is by far one of the hardest journeys I have ever embarked on.

I have started this journey many times and made great strides and progress only to sabotage myself and allow myself to get distracted, sidetracked and derailed from my progress and ultimately regress, too many times. I don't want to fall into old patterns and old paradigms that don't serve me anymore. I want to live my life happy and healthy and full of abundance, without fear of disappointing others and/or the fear of not being enough. I want to be surrounded by unconditional love and people who love, accept and support me not just for who I am today, but who I will be tomorrow, a year from now, and in all my levels of growth and evolution.

I am not the child you remember, I am also not who I was in my teens, my 20's nor my 30's. I am not who I was when I entered my 40's, nor am I who I was a year ago, a month ago, a week ago or even yesterday. Because even though I have fallen off track many times some growth and progress still remained. Like climbing stairs, even though I've stumbled and fell back a few, I always catch myself before I hit the ground. I dust myself off, evaluate where I am, where I want to go, then start climbing again!

I am on a journey to not only be the best version of me that I can be, I'm also on a journey to love myself unconditionally.
