Telling your story




 
We all have a life story...
 
The first time I shared mine, I was trembling from head to toe. I was worried what people would think of me because some parts of my life have been messy. Initially, I felt raw and ashamed. Being so open and  honest brought up feelings of vulnerability, but at the same time, I felt an incredible sense of freedom. Finding the courage to do this was no small feat. Looking back, I see how healing it was to share myself so intimately. It was a big step towards releasing shame.
 
What is your story?
What have been your biggest hurtles, your saddest moments?
What makes you laugh, cry, feel afraid?
Does shame have a grip on you?
Or can you be honest and vulnerable?
