Your Feelings Matter

Repeat after me: I do not deserve my trauma.

Most parents want what's best for their child, but it doesn't mean what they want for you or what they expect from you is the best for you. You, and only you, know for sure what's best for you.

Quitting is not a bad thing. It’s not a sign of weakness. In fact, it can be a sign of strength and willingness to move forward to a better life. It’s not an indication that you’re not trying hard enough. Quitting something doesn’t mean that you’re giving up on your dream. It just means that you’re moving on to different paths to achieve that same dream. It’s a sign that you’re prioritizing yourself and your values.

You're always doing better than you think.
