We have been trained to broadcast our successes and hide our failures. But the truth is this: our failures humanise us, and they connect us to one another.

Truth is the ultimate power. When the truth comes around, all the lies have to run and hide.

Never hide from the truth, especially about yourself....

Our standards for motherhood are so high that many of us harbor intense, secret guilt for every harsh word we speak to our children, every negative thought that enters our minds.

My husband and I have been involved with foster youth since our early 20s. Right out of college and not yet married, we spent weekends mentoring a family of young girls.

The truth is, I've been the Hulk my whole life.
