1-Minute Read: Confidence!

Authenticity_breeds_confidenceI have always been curious about confidence. What is it? How do you get it? Why do some people have more of it than others?

As a woman and as a counselor I have been on my own journey to understand the mystery of confidence. In the February issue of the Warrenton Lifestyle you can find my article on “The Mystery of Confidence” (click link here to read it).

Hundreds of girls and women have shared with me their struggles and their pain. I often hear these words: “I don’t feel worthy”, “I don’t like myself/my body”, “I don’t have the confidence to say/do that”. It takes courage to be so vulnerable – even with a therapist. I appreciate the trust many have given me as I help them to understand themselves and their relationships.

Confidence is built with the winning combination of right thinking and action.

You can learn how to think in an empowered way.

You can learn how to act in an empowered way.

You can learn to feel and be more confident.

Confidence is a requirement for healthy relationships.

Above all, we must be authentic. Authenticity breeds confidence.

Learn what is weakening or has destroyed your confidence and most importantly, learn how to build or restore your confidence. I would love to help you.
