When we can let go of what other people think & own our story, we gain access to our worthiness-the feeling that we are enough just as we are & that we are worthy of love & belonging. When we spend a lifetime trying to distance ourselves from the parts of our lives that don’t fit with who we think we’re supposed to be, we stand outside of our story & hustle for our worthiness by constantly performing, perfecting, pleasing, and proving. Our sense of worthiness – that critically importance piece that gives us access to love & belonging – lives inside of our story.
