Tangible Takeaways:

• What's the worst that could happen when you speak up versus when you don't speak up? Even if you’re rejected, it’s ok! A “no” is simply that, a “no.”
• You can't change the past. Focus instead on what type of life you want in your future. Resist the urge to be a victim of your circumstances, and make a conscious decision to be a victor.
• Believe in something bigger than yourself, that there is a bigger purpose beyond yourself, and be faithful to it.
• A plan and progress is better than perfection
• Think about your goals and break them down into bite-size pieces.This will move you past feeling paralyzed to moving forward.
• Avoid making vague goals! They only lead to vague results.
• Remember: toxic people thrive on a lack of boundaries. The best way to protect yourself from toxic people is to stick to your boundaries.
• Self-care is giving the world the best of you instead of what's left of you!
