Do you have a hard time identifying with yourself or others? Do you feel like you are secretly an outsider and find it difficult to connect or relate to others? I can tell you that I have been there and can relate to the emotional hardships of being you and navigating life and relationships. As a single mother and a military veteran, I know firsthand the amount of strength and courage it takes to believe in yourself and to be able to follow through with your goals.
