Elizabeth, thank you for the courage you have displayed. I feel inferior on a daily basis no matter how hard I try I have negative voices in my head saying I can't, or I am not good enough, of some other sense of unworthiness. You are much more talented in what you do than I will probably ever will be. Knowing that you have the same kind of issues as the rest of us means that there is hope for us all. You are my HERO!!! Please keep on being real. Thanks so much.

After all that, wouldn't you know it? Being yourself is enough.

We all suck at something, some of us suck at many things. I don't always practice what I preach either.

Let go, relax, enjoy. It's not easy but it is necessary.

Very refreshing to see that “experts” are also human. I thought I was the only one who felt I am not “walking the walk” at times. I met you a couple of years ago at a networking event, and get your e-mails once in a while, but for the most part I delete them, because I feel your approach back then was to try and sell, but not really connecting with your audience. This is a good start.

Holy cow! What a post! You go girl! I read this and then sat thinking of all the ways I suck too – may need to write my own post, because it might over-fill the comments here – LOL

I was gonna send you a DM to comment about some stuff – but you might not read it!

Finding that balance is very hard… I think everyone struggles with it! I also think that you are learning far more than you give yourself credit for… NO ONE starts out doing everything perfectly – nor are they ever perfect… just sayin'

Elizabeth, thanks so much for this. I personally suck in wildly different ways but I've got my peccadillos myself that I find myself trying to hide so often without even realizing I'm doing it. It's so easy to gloss over the embarrassing/difficult/what have you stuff in our blogging and talking even to good friends, especially when time is at a premium as is always the case for us moms. It would take me too long to admit my own flaws here (the f-bomb in front of the kiddo admission hits home! but I'm working on it!), but I'm going to be even more honest in my work from now on. Thanks again for this.

Jennifer
