Dr. Wines' 24 Hour Challenge:

I want you to get a piece of paper and a pen and write about it. If you like to journal, I want you to journal. Tt is so important to write it down. Why write it down? Because you forget. So, write it down and identify, "What hurts?" What is that big hurt that you're dealing with. Perhaps it is something that happened at church or perhaps it is something in a relationship. Maybe is something going on at work. You know, we've got COVID-19 going on, so maybe something related to that. But what is that big hurt? And generally, it's going to be hurt. You don't want to deal with something you don't want to face you don't want to think about. You don't want to talk about it. That's the hurt that has to be dealt with. And it's amazing how once you deal with it, it will free up all kinds of energy to do all kinds of things. And then what's the other side of that coin? What is the blessing that is right there in the mess? I want to tell us your story.

This is a challenge that was given to me, and I just thought it was really powerful. And even though this is a 24-hour challenge, I challenge women to do it every day. So, the first thing is when you get up in the morning and you see yourself in the mirror. You smile. Because we're just all thankful to just be here another day. Second thing is that you say your name. Because my name is Audrey, I would say Audrey, "You are relevant, you are beautiful, and I love you." You'll be surprised when you see yourself say those words to yourself, how impactful and how powerful it is.  I hope that every woman who is listening to this podcast can do it and feel the power from it.

So, number one, we want you to talk to someone that you've known for a while and get their thoughts on you and your confidence and your resilience. it doesn't have to be a long, drawn out dissertation or anything. Just say, hey, I want to talk to you for a second. I'm working on something inside myself. And I'd like to ask you, what do you think about me? How confident do you think I am? And let them answer. Just see what they say. And then the second part of that is we want you to talk to someone relatively new, maybe someone you've not known that long. They don't know a lot about you. Maybe you just met them and kind of say the same thing. I know you don't know me, but what do you think about my confidence and my resilience or what are your initial thoughts?
