Manifesto for Life

I will not settle for just-about-surviving in bad relationships for the sake of others.

I will not model ‘making do’ to my children.

I will climb a mountain and more if it means achieving my goals.

I will not let other’s opinions stop me from being happy.

I will allow myself to be vulnerable around the people I love so that they see ‘me’.

I will laugh every day.

I will love and respect my body, because I only get to use it once.

I will enjoy good company, good food and good wine.

I will not let anyone define ‘me’ ever again.
