You are the only person who can heal yourself. Nobody else will ever be able to alleviate your burdens. - Brianna Wiest

I am entitled to my own idea of myself.

To trust yourself means that you are no longer content to lodge your soul in the circumstances that have long stopped serving you.

Perfectionism holds us back from showing up and trying, or really doing the important work of our lives. This happens because when we are afraid of failing, or feeling vulnerable, or not being as good as we want others to think we are, we end up avoiding the work that is required to actually become that good. We sabotage ourselves because it is the willingness to show up and simply do it, again and again and again, that ultimately brings us to a place of mastery.
