My whole life I was told I was too much.
I talked too much. I said things I shouldn't say. I should know better.
So I learned to be quiet. I learned to make myself small. I held back.

Life is choice.
Before my family came to visit this weekend, I asked myself: How do I want to feel when it's over?

I want to ask you a question.
When you picture the VA business you want what does it look like?
You work from home. You set your own hours. You're not asking anyone for permission to take a day off. You're making real money doing work you're good at.

I read something last night that made me pause.
