Let's talk about being you, being out and proud of who you are. The idea of deciding who you want to be and just being it. When I learn how to consciously choose between who I'm being. I found so much power. I found so much to resonate with life. You can choose to be what you want to be, and that's beautiful. You don't have to justify it. You don't have to explain yourself.

In this episode, you'll learn about:

• Nurturing the parts of you that need acceptance
• Letting go of stories about why you can’t be you
