Growth isn’t always about the gains.
It’s also about the losses.
The Great Unlearning
Like losing the weight of others’ opinions, your appetite for ego, your old self, the past and your mistakes, pleasing others, relationships that have run their course, self-criticism, self-sabotage, and your fixed mindset.

I hope you remember...
When everything seems too hard, I hope you remember the strength and resilience that has kept you here despite all the hardships and heartache you’ve endured.
I hope you remember how deeply you’re loved.
I hope you remember how much you’ve grown. I hope you remember the purity and innocence of your heart, with its vast capacity to love.
I hope you remember how incredible it is that you’re here and get to experience the greatest gift of all: life.
