Recovery

There was a period of my life where I’d run out of steam half way through a sentence.

I’d start speaking and immediately falter because in that moment, I believed I had nothing much of value to say.

And of course this issue wasn’t about the value of my contributions, but a matter of low self-esteem.

And to rebuild this self-esteem, it’s taken a great deal of self examination, honesty and self love.

But when you come through the other side, nothing you talk about really changes.

But how you feel about yourself talking improves dramatically.

And that’s what recovery felt like for me.
