"I became someone who was out of reach from my wildest fantasies. It is told with insights told through the one-way lens of the other side.
If you know someone who doesn’t believe people can change—truly change—give them this book, and prove them wrong."
-The Last Battle: Becoming Someone Else

I lost every battle I ever fought to be who I am.
Except the last one.

Inspirational quote photo
A Tale of Two Selves
a self-love story
1. The illusion. The stories ego tells you about your worth. How you think the world sees you. How you see you.

2. The kind you feel when you are alone with yourself. When you look in the mirror amidst silence and a deep breath. The kind that drives you to move the earth for everything except yourself. The soul’s magnetic pull.

Sit in silence alone. Look in the mirror. Have a moment. You can’t run from who you are meant to become.

"It doesn't matter. What I want is not important. It's not about me. It was never about me. This no longer my story. It belongs to you now. This is your story."
