Do you ever wish others would see you for who you really are? Does it feel like your voice is trapped inside, or it’s just hard to say what you really think and feel without causing problems? Why is it so hard for empathetic, intuitive people to say what’s on their minds and hearts when they long to be authentic?

I used to believe that I was too much for others – too deep, too intense, and too sensitive. I didn’t know how to express my deep thoughts and intense feelings authentically without overwhelming people, so I attempted to become what I believed God and others wanted me to be – good, strong, and competent. My efforts to contain and control my self-expression left me feeling frustrated and inauthentic. I knew I was made for more than a life of holding back, but how could I be me without ruining my relationships?

My path through dating, marriage, and young motherhood led me through unexpected disappointment, anxiety, and depression. The pain dug deep, but that’s where I found the real, authentic me and a new way to love others with all that I am. I needed one more nudge to find and release my true voice into the world.

That’s when I met Elsa.

Join me in UNFROZEN as I tell the story of the events that led me to stop holding back and release the real me for connected relationships and extraordinary impact.

Let us live with hearts unfrozen!
