‘Be proud of your growth. This version of you has a lot less tolerance for the things you used to accept, and that is a beautiful thing.’
Since its inception, WE THE URBAN has established itself as a platform centred on healing, in all its many forms. Founded by Willie Greene, WE THE URBAN posts uplifting and inspiring quotes that encourage self-love, many of which are accompanied by the message, ‘Not Sure Who Needs to Hear This, But . . .’ Gaining traction during the first lockdown of 2020, these affirmations have gone on to touch the lives of millions, whether they’re sharing posts with friends, saving them as gentle reminders, displaying them on walls of their homes, classrooms, and offices, or incorporating them as cherished parts of their daily routines.
Willie extends the ethos and magic of WE THE URBAN to this compelling collection through powerful essays interspersed with the platform’s signature quotes and affirmations, many appearing exclusively in this book for the first time. Bringing readers through the ebbs and flows of the human experience, these pages venture through the process of finding inner peace, attaining the love you deserve, unlearning negative perceptions of yourself, and so much more. This book is not just a read; it’s an experience. Empathetic, inspiring, and empowering, it’s a daily companion for anyone on the journey toward self-love, self-acceptance, and self-liberation.
