It seems like once you hit the age of being a young adult, all of a sudden everyone around you magically thinks that you're supposed to have your life completely figured out. Little do they know that at this stage in your life there are so many other things rushing through your head that you don't even know where to begin.

So many young women constantly go through stages of believing and thinking that they are not enough. But the truth is you are! We constantly compare ourselves to other people and make ourselves think that we're not pretty enough, smart enough, kind enough or even worth anything. We start to lower our self-esteem and lose sight of who we are.
