Mastery: Making Mistakes Without Invalidating Oneself
As human beings we all make mistakes. It’s part of life. So why is it that even the smallest error which may have little to no consequence, can make some of us feel like failures? It all goes back to our programming. We’ve talked before about the crucial core beliefs we learned as children from…
Would you Rather be Right or Happy?
This week, I want to ask you – Would you rather be right or be happy? We’ve talked about this many times in the Healing Forest and in workshops, but the question still remains.
