As I thought about what I wanted to share in this week's solo episode I thought about the many times I allowed others to validate me. And I tell you the truth it did not serve me at all. 

As you view your life look back over the times you thought about the words of others you held more important than your own and more importantly than God's word and what he says about you. 

I had to make a change too so this is no judgement trust me.... 

Listen as I share how validating myself serve to be far better than the words of those who I gave power to for so many years.

It wasn't until I understood that it's my right to limit and or remove unhealthy relationships from my life is when things began to change for the better. 

I want you to do two things: Examine the relationships you currently have. Ask yourself "Do they serve me for the greater good"?

Now, take the steps you need to make the necessary adjustments. For some relationships it will mean cutting them off immediately and for others will require a slower process but either way action has to be taken. What good is it to have a friendship with someone for 15 years and you're both still in the same place you were mentally 3 years ago. I say choose quality over quantity it will benefit your life forever.
