When I had my breakthrough, I realized that my fears were based on thoughts I believed to be true since they had been taught to me from childhood on until adulthood. It was one of my greatest fears to share my opinion and thoughts, since I was terrified to be questioned or told in humiliating ways how wrong I was. Therefore, it was so relieving to let go of this fear, too. I promised myself I would no longer hide my truth if that meant denying myself. That’s when I began writing my book “I’m Free.” In it, I freely shared my experiences and the paths that led me out of my many prisons (still processing). Whenever possible, I also draw on examples from my own life in my posts. By doing so, I risk people close to me reading them, but I’m no longer afraid of that.
