I know that there is a lot of change ahead of me. There are parts of me that are excited but other parts that are nervous and worried. So I am trying to remind myself that I need to practice acceptance as best I can. That being said, I have to continuously remind myself that…

Have you ever wondered what you would be doing if you weren’t holding yourself back? Have you even noticed how much you’re standing in your own way? How many times have you rejected yourself or talked yourself out of pursuing dreams that make you feel alive? Are you on your own side or are you…

Learning about history can be so powerful, where did we come from? What has happened in the past for today to be as it is? How has humanity evolved or regressed?
