Thank you to all of you Sparkle ladies! This week has been an inspiration. I have shifted my identity, uncovered my voice, identified my audience, recognized my purpose and illuminated my why!! Through our work this week, my book has materialized before my eyes. I am no longer asking myself "Can I write this book?" I am now saying "I cannot wait to write this book!" I am writing this for the woman I used to be. The woman who walked through the darkness and claimed her freedom and gave herself permission to be happy. But I am also writing this for the people who are standing where I have been who could really use a little bit of light to brighten the path. I will walk beside you until you find your own freedom. Not because freedom is the end but because freedom makes everything else possible.
