“Connection &belonging are innate human desires to be a part of something larger than us. Belonging is a core attachment need that only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world. Our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance. To truly experience,  we have to embrace “the mess”. Accepting the hard moments and conversations, learning to listen, while also looking for joy within our daily lives.”

– Emma Harding LMFT
