When you're the strong one, people don't give you permission to hurt.

It takes a lot more courage to let something go than it does to hang on to it, trying to make it better. Letting go doesn't mean ignoring a situation. Letting go means accepting what is, exactly as it is, without fear, resistance, or a struggle for control.

Once you get clear on who you are, what you do, and what you have been CALLED to do, you become powerful.

Most of us know exactly what it is that creates the pain, confusion, stagnation and disruption in our lives. When we find something or someone creating in our lives that which we do not want, we must muster the courage and strength to stop it.

When you stand and share your story in an empowering way, your story will heal you and your story will heal somebody else.

Authenticity means that you must do what you do the way you do it and allow everyone else the same courtesy.

To honor life, we must be willing to grow through what we don't know yet, and outgrow what we know no longer fits us. We must be willing to give in to the process, moment by moment, realizing a new plot may be unfolding.
