Allow Me to Re-Introduce Myself...

Hey, ChicMotivator : ) I absolutely concurr! My early 20's were a total blur of partying, flying by the seat of my pants, crazy relationships and testing boundaries. I was actually very carreer motivated from 25 to 29 and that was a stablizing experience. Then I got engaged to the WRONG man, got pregnant, had a simply amazing child and spent almost 5 years in one of the worst relationsips of my life. I had just turned 33 when I realized I had to get out of it or I would spend the remainder of my life as an empty shell of who I am if I even still existed at all. So, I left him and endured some of the worst hardships of my entire life. And very soon after, maybe as a result of overcoming this trial by fire and re-introducing myself to the world with very positive feed-back, all of my prior insecurities were gone, just gone. I'm 34 now and definitely not claiming to have all of my stuff together. In fact, I was probably in a more stable and secure situation financially and professionally in my late 20's. But mentally and emotionally, I am a force to be reckoned with. I know who I've been, who I am, who I strive to be. I accept and love the fact that I'm ever-evolving. I don't judge or idealize people and situations the way I used to, instead I try to understand and hopefully learn from them. Frankly, if this is me in my 30's, I can't frickin wait for my 40's, lol! I look forward to reading your book : )
