The moment that I stopped kicking myself when I was down, and the moment I started to believe that my story was my superpower and that my traumas made me stronger when I talked about them, and my vulnerability was strength and this feeling of not having to be perfect- because that's i. I never had that feeling or that thought, because we're all perfect, imperfectly perfect.
