Diamond are made under pressure

Take it from the girl who had a stroke and came back fighting 💪

We have said "Don't back me in to a corner or I'll come out swinging" We use this as a badge of honor or a defense incase we get hurt

People described me as a child as "stubborn". (if they pushed to hard or hurt me too deeply I would dig in my heals) Maybe you were a child like this

Once I had the stroke all of the sudden my stubbornness was a good thing. Something God graced me with and were I agree I can't help but remember the wounds left over the years from being negativly told "I was stubborn"

Maybe, you were told something hurtful or verbally abused for being a sertain way and maybe your like me and punished yourself through relationships with narcissist or abusive partners because you didn't see how fearfully, wonderfully, & beautifully you were created.

You are worth so much more than you have thought & it's not anyone else's job to treat you that way. It's ours!

My stubbornness was a tool God knew I needed & He knew that this business was going to bring me growth and those 2 things got me to were I am today.

Living life, owning my own time, teaching my kids, being a Boss and CEO of my life ❤️ if I haven't told you lately. Be who you are! You are fearfully & wonderfully created.

> You feel better about yourself
> Your clothes fit better
> You feel yourself smaller than before
> You fit places you didn't used to
> The before & afters show progress

Then you step on the scales to see your progress and you gained weight.

Questioning your own feelings and thoughts you stop making progress and don't believe yourself.

Consider this:
If you are excersizing, you are gaining muscle 💪 & muscle weighs more than fat. Why are you depending on a scale to show progress? 🤷‍♀️ it's like comparing apples & oranges

If fat weighs 80% of muscle, then the numbers aren't the same.

In reality, the scale only tells you numbers, but numbers only help if you're trying to lose weight, not if you gain muscle

That's why goals don't matter - processes do.
Keep your processes and ask me to help if you need help. I Believe in you!
