Description

Do you hold yourself back from sharing your opinions, and your authentic self because of fear of others' judgement? I have always worried so much about how others perceived me, to the point where I realized I was living my life for others. In this podcast I share a variety of ideas and resources that have helped me on my path to cultivating authenticity. I also share this week's Tool for Transformation. I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. Connect with me on Instagram @melanieisathree, and I would be so appreciative if you would rate, review and subscribe to the podcast.
