I think we've all been brainwashed.

Everyday, I work with women who feel worthless. They spend their time questioning their abilities and wondering if they'll ever be enough. It takes months...or even years...of working together for them to begin seeing themselves as a valuable member of society.

I get where they're coming from. I used to feel the same way about myself. But I've spent the past decade unlearning a lifetime of messages that were constantly reminding me I needed to do more, have more, and be more.

Looking at where those messages originated is why I've come to the conclusion that we were all brainwashed.
