While her family gave her many comforts in her life, she fell into the shadow of this tree and silenced herself from sharing her accomplishments, eclipsed by the success and perceived expectations of others. Instead, she wore a mask that only she could see, telling her that she was never good enough.
As she grew up, she learned through many life-defining moments how to overcome that voice in her head and, as a result, how to balance the paradox of being her true self while still finding her place in her loving, wealthy, and supportive family. Only then did her essence shine through the branches of the tree and bring sunlight to her life, which she now shares with others.
As she continued to show up for herself every day as her best self, she came to understand that she is Enough .
