What happened to the insecurities that seemed so difficult for you at an early stage? It's easy for introverts and those who have insecurity issues to hide away… seems you continuously went outwards, finding the appropriate avenues for growth (therapy, zen, etc.,). Seeking the light. Wonderful!
Welcome to the forum!
Thanks for the kind words! The paradox of my path has been the more I admit to my own fears and insecurities the less I suffer from them. I once had to give a lecture on my artwork and I was worried about what to say. I started the talk with "I don't know what I'm doing" and improvised the rest. It was the best talk I ever gave. Also the more compassion I give to others with these insecurities the more I can heal myself.
