Wounds: Struggles with parenting, early death of father and brother, depression, I was just consuming and surviving.

Find fulfillment: progress, self-reflection, therapy, live congruently with values, lean in, heal wounds, connect

How do you learn what your unmet needs are: therapy, journaling, notice patterns and activators, explore your wounds, look for imbalances, ask loved ones

"By lovingly meeting our neglected needs, we reclaim our power and step into our highest selves, leading to a life of deep fulfillment and purpose."

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? ...Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine.... And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -Marianne Williamson

I will tell you right now, there’s one word that will give you happiness- one. You’ll remember it as long as you live: PROGRESS. Progress equal happiness. So if you’re asking yourself, “What is my purpose?” what you’re really asking for is progress - a TRUE sense of fulfillment.

And fulfillment isn’t a luxury or leisure activity - it’s a NECESSITY.” -Tony Robbins
