I happened to catch an Oprah show and saw a clip that I keep playing over in my mind…”just be yourself.” Oprah gave thanks to the man that started her career and hired her for who she is: her personality, character and soul. Since that episode I have come across many people giving thanks to Oprah for launching their solo career as she always said, “be your authentic self.” This phrase is my new mantra that I repeat in the back of my mind: just be yourself.
For me, this phrase helps me tap into my heart and express my love when I’m in the heat of the moment. Whether on the job, crowded grocery line or bearing public transportation just step back when possible and express your true self. We have every right to be here, express our thoughts and freedom to express what is on our mind in our own style.
So be who you are and feel the freedom to live life with no restrictions. Nourish your true self.
Just breathe…
