For years I felt like I had all the right ingredients, just in the wrong proportions and wrong timing.
After two failed marriages and experiencing difficulties with my current husband that I realized that I had to face my beliefs. It wasn’t really the marriage that was at issue, but more that I had fears about my own success. Never wanting to outshine my family or others, I held myself back.
