"I'm everything you say I am... to you. But your words do not define me... to me." Dawn shares the mindset phrase that turned an ex's accusations into a moment of unexpected power.

In Daily Dose 18, Dawn breaks down what happens the first time you truly let someone think whatever they want about you: your personal power magnifies exponentially. She walks through the mental trap of needing an ex (or anyone) to agree with your version of the truth, and the simple repeated phrase that got her out of it. The only definition of you that matters is the one you give yourself.
