For too long, I tried to repress my addictive, introverted, overly enthusiastic personality to be more like everyone else. Over time, I have learned to channel my traits into serving a greater purpose. Life becomes much more fulfilling when you work with your natural tendencies and strengths, instead of working against them.

Choosing an attitude of gratitude unlocks a peaceful, fulfilling life. I am extremely grateful to be on a journey towards reaching my full potential and helping others do the same.

I wasn’t gifted this life to be average. I believe we can create a fulfilling life that is aligned with our values. Thank you for joining me on this journey of growth, learning, and change.

Personal growth does not have to include shaming or guilt tripping. Progress comes from focusing on how we want to feel and what we can do in the present moment to improve, not from negative self talk.

I am firm believer in the quote “If it is to be, it’s up to me.” We can’t always control what happens to us, but we can always choose our perspective and how to respond.
