I have been reading books that are written by Brene Brown. I recently finished her book, Braving the Wilderness. This book was written in 2017, the contents are still very relevant today, 2023.
This quote is important, from her book. "True belonging requires us to believe in and belong to ourselves so fully that we can find sacredness both in being part of something and in standing alone when necessary.
It is a daily practice that demands integrity and authenticity. It's a personal commitment that we carry in our hearts."
