Growing up I can remember countless times I would have thoughts about myself and my body that were downright mean. The reflection we see when we look at the mirror isn't always the true version of ourselves.

I used to walk into a room and not feel comfortable in my own skin, sometimes wondering what people thought of how I looked or just who I am. I can honestly tell you, that is not how I function anymore! I walk into a room feeling confident, significant and valuable.

Many times we grow up in homes that aren't the most loving or affirming environments. We grow up believing things about ourselves or about life that just aren't true. Until we grow a new mindset we will hold to the beliefs we carry from childhood.
