Hello Everyone!

Most people criinnnggee when I pose this question. They duck, dodge, lower their head, change the subject, or simply just say it stinks! To be honest, that is very common until we start paying attention to our self-esteem. This isn't something that changes and strengthens on autopilot without some initial work.

Now, now, this doesn't mean we all need 20 years of work with a Psychiatrist... quite the contrary. You would be amazed how awareness and honesty starts changing the level of our self-esteem.

It can turn today.. So reply or start your own thread. We would love to hear from you and we are ALL in this same boat.

FYI: Our inner voice is the voice of our self-esteem. What is yours trying to tell you?

This is an open invitation to speak with me one on one is a coaching session and we also have many fantastic self-coaching assignments too.

Did you realize your inner voice will lead you to your wildest dreams or not?

Do you know what your inner voice really is?

What do you believe is your inner voice?

Tell us your story!

I always say that I have the self esteem of a flea, but challenge me and POOF there it is!  I can speak in public with no issues, all the while my inner voice is berating me.  I have been an advocate for rape and domestic volence victims and confronted their abuser in and out of court, verbally, of course, with no problem.  But when I look in the mirror I have nothing nice to say to myself.

Does anyone else have this problem?  Am I just going to have to work through this thing and figure it out?

My husband and my co-workers say nice things about me all the time, and I thank them for the compliments, but inside, I just don't get it.  But when I help someone, I feel a sense of accomplishment and that fire of doing good and purpose, which is why I am taking this course.

Yep - I'm a great big bundle of SO many things!  LOL!!

Have a lovely day or night - which ever it is where you are - I look forward to your responses on this topic.

Listen up Ladies, as your excuses have run out.


There are no longer any excuses not to care for ourselves as women.

Trust me on this, so get a piece of paper and a pen. With this small shopping list you will  making a quick trip to your local Dollar store or some people have a .99 Store. I use this as an example because if you live in the boonies you can still  find a store with great values.

Items on your list:

1. Incense - You will find these in the air freshener section. Look toward the top shelf. If you don't have a burner a small container with sand will work just fine. $1

2. Go to the soap section and find Vaseline Intensive Care bath beads. They usually have two scents. My fav is Gentle Breeze. No it isn't in a fancy jar, but you will never choose another brand again! $2

3. Go to the baby section and choose the lavender topped lotion. The store brand one. $1 [Some places maybe $1.50]

Now choose a time to take a hot bath and relaaaax! Trust me here...

And its all only $5!

I have a problem that I know what I need to do, but its not what I want to do...I need help!

I had ordered some clothes online and when the package arrived at my house I opened it up to find 4 items instead of only the 3 that I ordered.  Upon closer inspection, I got everything I had ordered, but there was this extra shirt in the order.  I checked my receipt, no billing mistake, I'm not being charged for this shirt.

Now, I know I should call the company and tell them of this mistake, that I'm sure will ultimately end in me having to send the shirt back.  I'm ok with this, however, it is a shirt I like that I would never buy for myself due to price.  They threw in a FREE 100% Cashmeire Sweater, priced at $100.

Is it very wrong of me to keep this sweater and pass it off as their mistake, and not have any regrets???  What would you do?
