Have you ever felt that you wanted to hide your imperfections? In this episode, Anne Vainio, Alopecia Empowerment & Life Purpose Coach tells of her courageous path from burn-out and debilitating shame from being diagnosed with alopecia and permanently losing all of her hair, to courageously sharing her imperfections with the world, and finding a connection to life and others she thought was no longer possible. Anne offers the inspiration and wisdom to all that we do not have to be ashamed of our imperfections, but rather accept them as an important aspect of our beauty. Key takeaways: Hiding imperfections and shame can lead to those imperfections and the associated shame becoming part of how you experience and identify yourself. Finding connection and support is key to healing and finding self-acceptance. Imperfection is beautiful. Resources: https://www.avain.io/ https://www.instagram.com/avain.io/
