While being tribal provided her with a sense of security, it came at a considerable cost. No longer willing to pay the price, Sally found better ways of coping with life's challenges than having others tell her what to believe, value, and how to behave. Sally discovered how to think for herself. Learn from this story all of the many benefits that come from being your own person, free from negative controlling influences that hold you back.
