G in The Comeback

“To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.” - Socrates Challenges and life experiences can impact your choices, your values, and your beliefs. So much so that when a person begins to question their values and beliefs, the fear and doubt they feel opens the door to insecurities. They begin to reconsider their choices, lose trust in themselves, and ultimately question who they are. Their identity becomes unknown, and who they thought they were or wanted to be, no longer is... In this episode, Queen G explores the the importance of SELF-IDENTITY and discusses how having a GROWTH MINDSET can help any person regain their sense of self when feeling lost.
