Everything is growth. EVERYTHING. Even if it feels like it’s cutting us back before we can move forward. Once we graciously accept this, we are no longer held prisoner by the words of others. Their words become a part of our guidance system. Reflecting back to us on how we are showing up in the world. We also begin to think about how we can be more gracious in the compliments and criticisms that we give to others, as the way we love them, is the way we love ourselves.
