How I overcame my fear of what somebody (might) think of me by connecting with my fire energy

What’s Your WILD?
I feel better when I am doing something wild. It means I’m being me. Now what is one person’s wild can be wildly different to another’s. Maybe you don’t like your wild hair and tame it with straightener’s or maybe you wish your hair was more wild so you dye it or...
