Imagine what you'd do if it absolutely didn't matter what people thought of you. Got it? Good. Never go back.

When you are in a creative or appreciative zone, you literally have no access to your inner lizard, to that fear-based, non creative, shrieking little beasty who's so afraid you're going to be a bag lady.

Most of my clients don't realize that the way they look and the way they think about their looks are two separate issues.

By the end of your incredibly arduous, disappointing, stressful journey, you will be your true self, in a place where you belong, with friends who truly understand you and bring all sorts of opportunities your way.

What should you do now? Find a new way. A better way. Your way. The unknown, uncharted path through this wild new world that allows you---yourself, in your uniqueness--to reclaim the full measure of your true nature.

Your first daily priority should be stillness, attention to what you really know and what you really feel.

Trust in your truth. It will be the best decision you ever make.
