Well said, Connie. I totally agree.

Great quote, Jessica. It took me quite a while to stop trying to fit in with people who would have never understood me anyway.

This is so valuable, Beth. It's much like my journey.

Well said.

I've experienced this as well. It is quite a journey to deal with internal criticism.

Well said, Victoria.

Thanks for sharing, Connie. It's so important to value ourselves.

I hear you.

Well said, Jessica.

Great job!

Hi, Sarah. I lived most of my life not being authentic and was able to change things through a lot of hard work. I decided to share my thoughts because I struggled with a lack of self-love for many years and finally was able to love myself.

I completely empathize.

Asking open-ended questions and just listening works well. People like to talk about themselves. It also takes the pressure off you.
