Stop me when this sounds familiar...

You are struggling with being an overachiever and perfectionism. You feel like you aren’t good enough, worthy enough, or just not enough, in general. You are looking for ways to decrease anxiety and start rebuilding self-worth. You try so hard to do enough for everyone that you don’t really take care of yourself. And all the while, you just feel like there isn’t enough time in the day. You put yourself on the back burner and make sure everyone else is taken care of. You have a hard time deciding what you want because you are making sure everyone else is getting what they want.

I have been there, too. I have been a chronic apologizer. I have been a black-and-white thinker. I have had to work on defining truth, building boundaries, and learning how to make good decisions in life. I worried all the time that I would fail and that it would be a catastrophe. I worried about what people would think of me and practiced how to respond to things before they would happen. I have struggled with impostor syndrome. I have always needed external rewards for what I do. Gold stars, A+ grades, and people commenting that they couldn’t get along without me.

Over the years, I have learned some valuable lessons. Some from my own life and some from my career as a licensed psychologist. All of these lessons have changed the way that I think, act, and live my life.

I authored this book to show you how to make the intentional choices that will allow you to take control of your life. By recognizing the choices you have and learning to be more intentional in making them, you can reduce the regret that comes with feeling pushed into a decision. I want you to live a life you haven’t even imagined you could. A life of fullness and enoughness. A life of worth. A life lived intentionally with less guilt, shame, and stress. A life of more hope, more success, and more love where you can be your best self.
