We often design our lives around a long list of all the things we believe are wrong with us.  Susan Henkels asks us to consider an alternative vision: What if there's nothing wrong with you? 

Susan Munich Henkels, M.S.W, is a psychotherapist focused on resolving relationship issues with yourself, your partner, families, family business and organizations. She is committed to clear and honest communication for the best possible outcomes.  She is also an avid colored pencil artist with a passion for drawing trees and the magic they hold. She has many original drawings in private and public collections and has shown at the Sedona Arts Center and at several international and national colored pencil exhibitions.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx.

Forgiving oneself for perceived faults proves to be an unexpected path to self-liberation and accomplishing personal goals.

Questioning personal flaws may unveil hidden strengths; a shift from self-criticism to self-acceptance fosters profound life changes.

Embracing 'it is what it is' liberates from the burden of self-judgment, enabling sleep and introspection, enhancing personal growth.
