Favorite Quotes:

“We find ourselves being like a chameleon, wearing this camouflage to fit in for whatever situation we are in and people we are with so that we don’t stand out. We become somebody else because we think that is what they want and need, but that is hiding the God parts of us and who God made us to be.” – Tiffany Jo Baker

“Authenticity is a very conscious act; a decision to make every single day.” – Lori Young
