I've always been an anxious little girl. On a good day, this meant that I had TONS of energy to share with others and could immediately elevate an entire crowd of people to feel happy and entertained.

But on a bad day, this meant I could easily attack others with tons of worry and create frustration for everyone in my space. I struggled with self love because I hated this part of myself. I hated that I couldn't get a handle on my emotions and didn't know how to express myself to others so I could get proper help. The word "anxiety" was unfamiliar to me growing up and it wasn't until I went to college did I even learn what it was.
This lack of knowledge led to a lot of poor choices in coping skills, friendships, communication, boundaries, and ultimately the pain and weight of it all-led to depression.
My family and I frequently sought out help from others to teach me how to cope with life in healthy ways and I picked up a TON of skills along the way but I still struggled with self confidence, assertive communication, and total self love. It wasn't until I started to embrace my anxiety and accept it's presence in my life that I found true freedom and peace.

In embracing my anxiety, I found strength because I no longer resisted it. I started to realize that my anxieties forced me to identify the situations and people who triggered me. It showed me the areas I needed to work on; such as demanding respect from others AND myself. Anxiety showed me the parts of who I am that needed to grow and heal and it also showed me that I have a LOT of inner strength that is able to respond to my anxiety in a healthy way.
The part of myself that knew how to handle anxiety...she is amazing. A powerful force that uses that energy to bring awareness to issues I had been ignoring.

I started to recognize, this force was no coincidence or outside person ... she was me. My Goddess, who is untouched by the judgments of others and unwounded by past pains. She is my protector and the more I cherished and loved her, the easier it became to speak up for myself, create healthy boundaries, control my anger, and ultimately manage my anxiety.

I know the journey. In a busy world filled with distractions and hurt, it's not easy to tap into her but with the right support, direction, tools, and patience YOU can find your Inner Goddess too.
