Welcome back to the Daily Touch.

I am going to tell you something that most people in my position would not say.

When you start saying the true things, when you stop micromanaging everyone's perception of you, when you stop making yourself as easy as possible to love, things might fall apart. Some of them might... and I am not going to shellac over that.

But here is what I know. If you have been routinely abandoning yourself in order to keep the peace and hold it all together, you do not have a steady foundation to fall back on when life gets hard. And life will get hard.

The relationship you have with yourself is the only one you take with you everywhere, into every conversation, every board meeting, every relationship, from the day you are born until the day you die. It is your most longstanding relationship. And most of us are taking it completely for granted.

That is what this Daily Touch is about. Building something inside yourself that nobody can take away. Even when the walls come down.

If you want help building that, that is exactly what we do inside Tend. Doors close Sunday March 29th: maraglatzel.com/tend
