reclaiming my power
It's long overdue that we walk in our purpose and reclaim our power. I don't know about you, but my 2023 was the year of questions. I KNOW 2024 will be my year of answers. I hope after listening to this episode you feel inspired to reclaim your power from anyone or anything that dimmed your light. Don't be afraid to return to your light. 
Key Takeaways:
- (self) perception isn't always reality.
 - confusion could mean your mind, body and spirit are changing and the sooner you embrace it the sooner you level up!
 - judgement in any capacity (whether it be towards yourself or others) isn't healthy and prevents you from reaching our full potential.
 - it’s everyone’s first rodeo at life and we’re all facing our own silent battles.
