For the most part, anything that happens before the age of 12, makes us into the adults we are. If we don\\u2019t feel wanted by our parents, the people who are supposed to want us and love us, it creates a big core wound. When we have low self-worth we think we are a burden and we deprive people in our lives of showing up and giving to us.

If we commit to personal development, we have to let go of self-judgment. We will not transform and heal if we judge ourselves. Love and judgment can not be in the same place. We can love the part of ourselves that judges us because we know it is just trying to protect us, but if we are frustrated with ourselves, transformation won\\u2019t happen.

When judgment and frustration come up, know that it is our inner child calling out to us to meet their needs.
