It was my insecurities.

It was my insecurities that someone's going to judge me that I decided I wanted to be in business instead of being a mother.

And that judgment would break me, right?

When I was at school, I was teased and bullied by girls.

So it's all these judgments, people's opinions that I thought would break me.

I was mildly dyslexic and put in a special class.

So I always wanted to protect myself.

And so all of these things contributed to me never showing weaknesses, failures, because the last thing I wanted was to get mocked or bullied.

But what I realized was I was actually doing the opposite.

I was actually feeding my insecurities more and more and more instead of eradicating them.

And so the insecurity held me back time and time again.

And so I asked myself, what would it look like if you just had to eradicate your insecurities?

Now, over time, I've just assessed, why am I still not where I want to be?

Okay, it means you have to embrace them first.

And so what I did was I just embraced, what is my insecurity?

Why was I stuck for eight years serving everybody else except for myself?

So let's just take being in front of the camera, because that's the one that we're here right now in front of the camera.

It was my insecurities.

It was my insecurities that someone's going to judge me that I decided I wanted to be in business instead of being a mother.

So I had a mission to help people.
