My own birth story was marked by a clubfoot plus my Achilles tendon taut and rigid. Like Achilles who was wounded and lame, I had to fight against the odds. Luckily the doctors fixed my foot and extended my tendon so I could have mobility. My own wounds and scars have become my strengths. My own demons have shed light to my life.
What wounds do you have from birth? You can also learn from those! Although they are part of who you are, don't let them define you.
