Let’s admit it. The person we’re hardest on and expect the most from is ourselves. Why? Because we know better than anyone else what we’re capable of. We sit with our thoughts every single day, and they don’t go away. If we believe we aren’t capable, nothing anyone says to us is going to matter. … Continue reading Let’s Admit It
To be honest with my fellow readers, I didn’t want to post about this. As a black woman, I grew up with a clear indication of the history that came before me.
