Because I am a one-legged, black, short, woman I had to spend every day of my life pushing against what society told me I should be. I had to sell my value every day of my life. Confidence is what enables us to push back on reality. Once you get good at that, you can use it to live your joy.

People fall down, winners get up, and gold medal winners just get up faster!

You can't have real and authentic friendships unless you honor your feelings.

God has joy for you right now.

It's your life... why not fill it with as much joy as possible?

I spent so much of my life shut down from the abuse of my childhood. I didn't have friends and I didn't have connections with people.
