Wow what an amazing project to create ! I d like to take part in the giveaway too! I am curious to ask how do you deal with the initial anxiety when asked of the project…what can gives us trust in ourselves...i guess we are all different but there is where I struggle. Thank you for sharing this looking forward to explore the book like I would explore nature around!

Hi Lucia, for the initial anxiety I might search within me and ask how would I feel if I don't do this project - if I feel a sense of regret then I try and do it and trust that I've been asked for a reason! Building self trust is really important, there is often going to be bad experiences and good ones too that we can reflect what worked and what didn't to help give more trust in self- but beginning with having a sense of what brings you back to yourself, what is meaningful, connecting and authentic outside of others perspectives and ideas is a good thing to start noticing and developing ❤️ I don't know if that answers your question but hope helps
