Your self esteem starts with you, no one else.  Mika Altidor learned this at an early age, as she was first generation American and spoke no English, but had to learn to adapt to school and make friends.  She learned through self-reflection and creating a love for yourself by spending time alone.  During her quiet time she exercised in nature, baked brownies and watched Bugs Bunny.  As she grew she added in personal development studies from Napoleon Hill and Zig Ziglar and John Maxwell and implemented tactics she learned watching and reading "The Secret".   Her development led to researching why her body was feeling the way it was, physically and emotionally, which in turn, led her to vegan eating. Now Mika is an entrepreneur, owner, baker, author and mentor.
