  • Fake It ~ Not Anymore!

    Our cousin, Ashley posted the above picture this morning on Facebook. It really resonated with me. I used to say “I will fake it till I make it” but then I realized I needed to be my authentic self…no more faking…faking is what I had to do for years. I am often told I share… Continue reading
