    Best quote from How to Get Over a Situationship and Regain Your Sovereign Power

    “

    The highest form of healing is that you can still desire to be chosen, but you are no longer afraid to walk away if you’re not. It’s about shifting from the scarcity of 'Will they pick me?' to the fullness of 'I choose myself.'

    ”
