I don’t know who you are reading this. But my guess is, you have a love/hate relationship with your mirror. Worse yet, more than the plastic full-length that hangs in your bedroom, possibly it’s the people around us that act like mirrors too… And somewhat subconsciously (or maybe even, well…not so subconsciously) we can morph and […]
Truths You Need To Know About Your Calling
