”You don’t have to wait to be chosen.” These wise words from Marty McDonald landed in my soul like a gentle invitation to come home to myself. When Marty couldn’t find people who looked like her succeeding, she chose to become the light she needed to see, understanding that our greatest act of self-love is learning to trust our own unfolding.
