- Hard times show you the true character of your friendships.
- People love you as long as you do things for them; but when hardships come most people will make judgments instead of having real conversations with you because you no longer benefit them.
- People-pleasing only leaves you empty and them full. All the sacrifices you make for people will only matter to a select few.
- There are a lot of rules & regulations I thought were connected to my faith over a true relationship. God wants my heart, not a checklist.
- Perfectionism is a lost cause and embracing my imperfections and authentic self is the best way to live.
- Learning & knowing my boundaries is a powerful way to live and if others find those offensive that is not my responsibility.
- Money is a tool and when you give it away, it comes back to you in more ways. Holding too tight brings stress & sadness.
- Being alone is a superpower. Having space and time alone without music, TV and in my own thoughts is where real growth happens.
- Learning to love yourself without the affirmation of people is where peace and acceptance is found.
- Kids want to relate to you, not get a speech of what they should do. Share your imperfect experiences. It creates trust and helps them continue to open up to you.
- Words of affirmation towards yourself are more powerful than anything someone else can say to you.
- When people leave your life, many times it’s a blessing in disguise.
- Treat people with kindness and respect no matter how they treat you. There is a line between this and people-pleasing. Staying kind and respectful vs expending extra energy to make someone else happy is not the same thing.
- Life is super short. Living it in truth is better than a lie no matter how much you want that lie to be true.
- Exercise has incredible power to bring you out of a funk and benefit your mental health.
- The most judgmental people, tend to be the most insecure.
- Prayer can change anything.
- Miracles still happen.
- I don’t want this one life to only look like “sacrifice.” There is a balance I can strive for that also includes showing up for myself as well.
- Everyone has trauma, what they do with that trauma is the game changer. Trauma cannot be an excuse for bad behavior continuously happening.
- Most people ignore & are passive in their own lives/relationships and love to hear others problems to help them feel better about their own.
- “No” is a complete sentence.
- There is joy in every single day, no matter how hard life seems. It helps to focus on the good.
- Therapy is not just for going through problems. It releases the hold trauma has on you, teaches you new habits & gives you new insights to live a life rooted in peace and freedom.
- Having a change of heart about someone or something can be an act of courage.
- The quicker you get to the point in a converstion with kids, the better they will gain understanding over the point you’re trying to make.
- Taking a day at a time is the best way to live intentionally.
- Change isn’t a bad thing even if scary at times.
- Mental health effects your physical health so self-care for your mind is just as important as your body.
- Finding your identity outside of people and titles can be one of the most empowering things you can do. This is where real confidence and peace lie
