Last weekend, I had the pleasure of seeing the movie, Harriett. Great movie, if you have not already seen it, I suggest you go see it. As I was leaving out of the theater, I was in such deep thought. I was greatly compelled to take notes from the movie and apply it to my life. One quote in the movie that stood out the most to me was, “fear is your enemy.” Many times we allow fear to get in the way of our success.

Still Breaking Barriers
When I initially started this blog, I wasn’t totally sure what it would come to be. I just knew God had placed this idea in my heart and I needed to move with it. I remember coming up with the name, Breaking Barriers and I went to get the domain and of course it was already taken. So then, I came up with the idea to add my name to the beginning, Bridgette Breaking Barriers. The power I felt every time I said it then and even now continues to resonate.
