There’s no need to be anyone other than who you truly are. And that means letting your pleasure, confidence, and inherent beauty be visible. So often we think that if we’re happy, that will make someone else unhappy. Or if we’re rich and famous, they’ll be envious. Or if we’re seen in our full glory we’ll lose friends or they won’t like us. It’s an old, old construct that misery loves company and only the poor and needy are worthy of our love and consideration, and the rest are not. Don’t think you make someone else feel good by making yourself feel unworthy or less-than. When you enter a room, light it up with all that you are. Don’t hide your light under a bushel. When you let your light shine, you let everyone’s shine. When you show up as you are, you let other people show up as they are too.
