Joy, thank you for sharing such important and essential perspectives with us, in such a beautiful way.

I’m 58 now. In my early 40’s after an adult life of self-criticism which fed the story of unworthiness in my head, I decided to become my own best friend, and live from the place that “I’m already worthy.” It has been a transformation won one replaced thought at a time.

One of my most constructive practices was replacing “should” with “could.” Could opens possibility, should carries a judgement and often has a story behind it. Could empowers in the present, should sources itself in the past.

Again, thank you for the contribution that you are, Joy. 🙏

I am certainly not the SME that you are but I always tell people not to second guess themselves, there are hundreds of people that will do that for you.
