Daring To Take Up Space

I know it’s hard to trust, but you belong.
And no matter how much darkness you’re carrying, you deserve to love and be loved.

There’s strength in honoring your needs.
Strength in giving yourself the best possible chance to succeed by going at your own pace and being mindful of what you’re currently able to give.

This is for anyone who needs a reminder that you deserve to take up space in the world and that you are enough. In her first poetry collection, Daniell gives voice to the fear and anxiety, as well as the perseverance and strength, that has been fundamental to her own personal growth journey and the path to deeper and more meaningful self-love and acceptance. In her own words, this book is for “the 17-year-old Daniell who was convinced she was worthless; who was convinced she would never survive or amount to anything. This is for the friends and family who never stopped believing in and supporting her. This is for all the people who feel that they have to shrink and hide who they are in order to be loved and accepted and worth something."
