“Go and love someone exactly as they are. And then watch how quickly they transform into the greatest, truest version of themselves. When one feels seen and appreciated in their own essence, one is instantly empowered.” ~ Wes Angelozzi

I don’t know if I could have said that better or more on the mark! It is one thing to be comfortable in your own skin and to believe in your gifts, talents and abilities. But to have just that one person in your life who also believes in you and who loves you exactly as you are, the one whom you can be your totally authentic self with, well, that’s a whole other level of empowerment. That person is truly the wind beneath your wings who helps you to soar to new heights and to reach for those big dreams. I am so fortunate to have that person as my partner in life, my partner in crime and my biggest cheerleader when it comes to putting the work in to achieve those dreams and ideals that I hold. If you have that kind of blessing in your life, cherish it. And if you can offer that same unconditional love and acceptance to another, you can watch how they continue to blossom into a happier and more accomplished version of themselves.

If you can offer that gift to another person, to your family, to your friends….I think this world could become an amazing place of hope, aspirations and kindness like we’ve never seen.

As Ghandi said, “Be the change you want to see in this world.”
