I’ve decided to go on a journey of self-love. I need to find a way to love every part of myself and even love the things I hate. I have depression, yes. Am I going to let it continually affect me? No. Everyday I am going to remind myself of my good qualities when I wake up and when I am getting in bed.

I also put myself out there and accepted a gig. I will be playing piano at a food fundraiser this Sunday - nervous as hell but also excited. ❤️

Thank you!! I’ve been trying to put together some repertoire but I’m so nervous... I don’t practice as much as I used to!

Neither do I :) But every Christmas I sit down and somehow everything comes back to me.

And it will for you too. xx

That's usually what happens for me too - but I did have an incident during a performance one time. It was during my piano concerto and the auditorium was completely filled up and I stopped playing for a good thirty seconds and then continued. Talk about the "naked dream"...!!!

Wow! You go! 😜 i feel the same but i actually really hate myself. It's hard but you are strong and you definitely go on that self love journey and don't look back. You deserve it, we all do but it takes a lot of courage to stand up tall for yourself. Good job! Proud of you for that!😄👍
