Wordaful SD: Event Recap

Last night I attended #WordafulSD (@wordaful) by @lizhernandez and had no expectations whatsoever! We all came in and we immediately wrote down in these journals two things we are struggling with. 😦⁣
⁣

Then we had to share them out loud among a group of 50 women...⁣
⁣
It was a nerve-wracking experience saying these struggles out loud but it also made me realize a lot of us are struggling with the same things — self-worth, not knowing our purpose, not feeling loved or supported... and it really put things into perspective.⁣
⁣
Then we paired off and we each turned those struggles into affirmations! ✨ The power of turning those negative words we tell ourselves into empowering phrases of encouragement and action really was incredible!⁣
⁣
Then we each shared our affirmations out loud to the whole group... And this time it wasn’t as nerve-wracking. It was empowering! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 It was beautiful to witness all of us take something we struggled with and turn it into an affirmation we can use starting NOW to reshape our mindset and how we think and speak to ourselves.⁣

Thank you @lizhernandez for creating this transformative space to feel safe with our thoughts, to share our struggles and doubts openly, and empower ourselves with our words. ❤️
