How to love yourself and stop the self-sabotage

How to change your brain and heal your mind

Tapping into wide-ranging wisdom from Thomas Edison to Yoda, from Martin Luther King, Jr. to Led Zeppelin, Ally will inspire you with insights for handling adversity and trauma with strength and wisdom. As she explains, "It's okay if our paths are not linear—taking small steps or a few side steps is better than sliding backwards."
