Personal Colour Analysis and The Law of Attraction
Releasing all the self-defeating paraphernalia we drag behind us can’t happen till we know what it is. Freeing ourselves of all that we do to look less beautiful and complete cannot happen till we see what those things are. Our journey is not the same as our mother’s or our friend’s.

No Secrets in My House
Rather hard to force secrets into the open. Keeping problems quiet and dark makes them safe. They get stronger because they look bigger, just like everything does in the dark. The problem grows inside your lonely imagination. And then you get this crazy idea that you’re the only one fighting and that you’re fighting alone.
