Self-love, Boundaries, and the Power of Your Story

“Someone else will be inspired by the part of your story you’re ashamed of.”- Nakiea Homer

One thing that I’ve noticed across the board is the difficulty that we have enforcing boundaries with those around us. I believe it’s because we’ve been socialized, since childhood, to please those around us regardless of how that makes us feel. Then as adults with poor boundaries, we often have internal struggles that could be completely avoided, self- loathe, struggle making real connections with those around us, and moving to the next level in our lives.
