This episode is about letting other define you, whether is conscious or unconscious behavior it happens. We often tell ourselves that what people say or what they believe is not our business and it doesn't matter. If their words impact you or cause you unnecessary harm then perhaps it is time to clear the air. At times it truly might be easier to let it go. However, what happens if we start drinking the kool aide and now we believe all the false narratives that were place on us? What happens if we no longer know who we are because we have let other people create a personae of ourselves that is simply not true?

Are words harmless or harmful? Does it depend on what or who said them. If words have power to negatively influence our lives should we address it at that point. When does it end, or when does it begin for that matter. We all should know who we are be able to stand up for ourselves when others attack our character or our integrity.

1. You are enough.
2. Just because you may have lived a false narrative, does not mean it has to continue. Start today, and change it. Be who you are meant to be and don't let anyone define you.
3. Create your safe space. A space where you can write, sing, journal, draw the things that bring you peace and joy. Take your mental breaks whenever you can to stay grounded and focused inside of your safe space.
4. Remember, that the hardest battles are fought with ourselves.
5. Never give up, face the world with integrity and strength of character. Believe that you can make a difference and you will make a difference.
