It's on me : accept hard truths, discover your self, and change your life / by Kuburic, Sara,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."So many of us feel lonely, unfulfilled, or trapped-in our roles and relationships, in cycles of self-sabotage and wrong decisions, by our toxic patterns and misguided attempts to feel happy--or to feel something. Many of us struggle to like the person we see in the mirror. According to Sara Kuburic, it doesn't have to be so difficult. Really. Instead of pushing harder or running faster, the secret lies in taking full responsibility for the choices and actions that create our reality. It's about slowing down, cutting through the clutter of demands and expectation, and finally taking ownership of this person we call our "Self." Now, Kuburic unpacks "self-loss," giving us new vocabulary to understand our unarticulated experience, and offers tools she's used for years to help her clients recover. Self-loss becomes apparent when we feel the pain and emptiness from performing or observing life, rather than living it. Guiding us through the process of self-reflection, acceptance, and discovery, Kuburic proves that we can: experience but not feel overpowered by our emotions; establish a healthy connection to our bodies; set loving boundaries to define ourselves and heal our relationships; declutter our physical and mental environments to create space for our true selves to thrive; find meaning and purpose in a seemingly meaningless world"--

At first the mirror seems to work for everyone but her. Challa keeps looking and looking. The more beauty she sees in herself, the happier she feels, and the longer she looks into the mirror, the more beauty she sees, until finally Challa sees so much beauty, she can't contain her smile! This special story, from award-winning activist Sunshine Quem Tenasco and artist Chief Lady Bird, introduces readers to concepts of self-acceptance, self-empowerment, and recognition of the unique beauty that comes from within.
