Embrace yourself

So years ago after I lost myself and let titles of other redefine who I was. I was mommy, friend. I was fat, useless, trash, incapable, not worth the time. But after being apart and divorced I did a lot of self healing. I repaired what was broken and started doing actual work. I spoke with my therapist, attend seminars online(immune system issues) and became more aware of how to change the actions of other and become pressure. Ever since I found that I am still a Mom, a Sister, Proud Bori and Trini, A Fiancée, I am beautiful and giving, I pour life and receive life, enjoy the world around and most of I am me and no one can take that from me. So I am going to start a podcast called “RAW: Rare After Wear” that goes into everything I mean everything. And it is meant for everyone will you come join me#unapologeticallyyourself #advocateforselflove #empowermentjourney

... Read moreFinding your true self is a profound journey that many embark upon, often triggered by life’s challenges. Self-reflection and therapy play crucial roles in this process. Engaging in conversations with a therapist not only aids in healing old wounds but also helps reshape our identities from negative labels to affirming roles. It’s essential to embrace the parts of ourselves that we often overlook due to life’s pressures. Practicing self-love is about acknowledging our worth without needing external validation. It involves celebrating our diversity and uniqueness—whether as a mother, partner, or individual. In contemporary society, it’s important to advocate for self-worth openly and share our experiences. Social media has become a platform for stories of empowerment and resilience, where hashtags like #unapologeticallyyourself and #advocateforselflove encourage us to express our journeys and connect with others who share similar paths. By starting initiatives like podcasts, we can foster community discussions around these topics, encouraging others to join us—because everyone deserves to feel loved and empowered in their skin. In a world often filled with unrealistic standards, embracing our true selves becomes a revolutionary act. Let’s celebrate each step of the way!

This book taught me a lot about myself. It showed me new ways to think about my life, and especially how I perceive myself in the view and the life of others. It taught me that it’s okay to not be perfect, and that maybe by being imperfect, I can count myself as wonderful. The “flawsome” things
