"I am 30 years old and 6 months ago I broke up with my ex. I had the worst relationship ever, he was younger and he used to treat me poorly. The day we officially broke up, he insulted me over 6 hours by messages, saying that I was nothing and that I would never do something real with my life, that I wasn't worth it, and that I didn't deserve anything in life. Reading all these mean and terrible things gave me the strength to start living the life I've always imagined and gave me the strength to make my dreams...

When it comes to affirmations, it’s easy to be skeptical. “Stare at myself in the mirror and repeat something over and over to myself? Yeah, okay.” But research has shown time and time again that affirmations increase an individual’s sense of self-worth and positive emotions. When we verbally affirm our dreams and ambitions, we are instantly empowered with a deep sense of reassurance that our wishful words will become reality. How does this work? Affirmations have actually been proven to rewire our brains. Much like exercise, they raise the level of feel-good hormones and push our brains to form new...

"I got my ring just over a year ago. I was at a time in my life where I was struggling to love myself. I had been thinking about getting this ring for a while as a promise to love myself first rather than basing my self worth off of how others felt about me. It's still a constant reminder to me, and even though I still continue to struggle, I can look at my ring to remind me of my value."

This is the opposite of taking a chance. This is committing to a plan. And this approach served me well, until it didn’t. Because what happens when you’ve done everything according to plan? You then realize you’ve reached your final destination only to feel...

"Sometimes, Wishes Can Be Granted In The Most Unexpected Ways I said yes! But, it isn’t quite what you think.

I remember being on a family trip to the Magic Kingdom and watching them for the first time and being in complete awe.
