If you would like to live a more authentic life, read The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are – YOUR GUIDE TO A WHOLEHEARTED LIFE, by Brene Brown, Ph.D., L.M.S.W.
From the Introduction: “Wholehearted living is about engaging in our lives from a place of worthiness. It means cultivating the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, NO matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough.”
If you need to let go of what people think, let go of perfectionism, let go of comparison, let go of anxiety, let go of self-doubt and stop doing what you’re “supposed to” do, this book will help, and it covers so much more.
