Believing that you're enough is what gives you the courage to be authentic.

I'm just so grateful, because to feel this vulnerable means I'm alive.

For me, the opposite of scarcity is not abundance. It's enough. I'm enough. My kids are enough.

There's no evidence that vulnerabilty is weakness.

When we fail to set boundaries and hold people accountable, we feel used and mistreated. This is why we sometimes attack who they are, which is far more hurtful than addressing a behavior or a choice.

The truth is, I'm a storyteller. And it scares me, because my training as an academic is that the more accessible you are and the more human you are, the less smart you are. It's a shame trigger for me to be honest.

When we numb [hard feelings], we numb joy, we numb gratitude, we numb happiness.
