I am not my Mistakes

If we could just grasp this truth.

“I am not my mistakes, I am a child of God.”

That is EVERYTHING!

Why do we choose to identify with the very thing that cripples us & holds us back?

When you believe a lie about your identity & you have no one that speaks clarity over it, you decide that, that very thing must be a part of who you are.

I know we can ALL identify with that.

Ask yourself this:

••What is something that I did that I can’t seem to forgive myself for?

••What did that person say to me that put me down & made me believe I’m not worth it?

••What did my parent(s) tell me or not tell me that i now find yourself wrestling in thought with?

••Do I believe my life has value & purpose?

••Does this world really need me?

If your brave enough to admit that you answered ‘no’ to those last two questions, I want to tell you that that’s a BS lie, & you need to DIRECT MESSAGE ME NOW! Let’s talk on the phone, get some coffee or some sushi, & just talk life. It’s so crazy how just opening up with someone safe can literally change everything. I guarantee that you’re not alone in this.

& if you answered the first few questions and found that there’s probably some lies about you that you are believing, LETS CHILL. If nobody has yet, I will help you find the gold that is waiting to be found in you. IT’S THERE. Trust me.

I don’t care what you believe, just get this!

YOU ARE NOT YOUR MISTAKES!

Give yourself permission to be great!
