In this episode of Soft Strength with Stephanie Juste, I share a chapter from my memoir Between Worlds a story about growing up feeling like nothing I did was ever enough.

From school to home, I learned to associate love with performance, and mistakes with pain. I speak about the pressure to be perfect, the fear of getting things wrong, and the quiet loneliness of being a child who felt unseen and misunderstood.

This episode is not just about what I experienced,

but about the beliefs I carried from it

and what I am still learning to unlearn.

This episode includes a personal reflection, grounding, and affirmations for anyone who has ever felt like they had to earn love.

You are already enough.

Even now.
