Summary

Our past doesn’t define who we are today, it only defines who we were. Through exercising vulnerability, we have the opportunity to release ourselves from the old and make way for something new. However, this vulnerability can potentially open the door for others to use your mistakes against you. Listen how I recently combatted a situation when someone tried to use my vulnerability against me.

0:14.0	So it's no secret if you've been a listener, a follower, an occasional browser of my podcast that I have a unique past.
0:27.0	And I say unique in the fact of not that it's specifically individual that I'm the only person that has my past but I have a

1:06.1	I was unable to maintain healthy relationships based off of not putting value on myself and not putting value on the people I was with.
1:16.0	And again, this all transpires from 20 until 30. I'm now 34 years of age as I record this episode. And so in this I've
