by candy barone Apr 01, 2024

We live in a world of more and better. That includes how we approach our healing and expansion, as well. Just look at social media. We glorify this constant need for improvement and becoming “better” versions of ourselves, as if somehow we are damaged or broken.

by candy barone Mar 29, 2024
