We recently polled our followers asking if confidence was important to them. 97% Of those responded say it is important. Some even attributed their weight loss to being more confident and how they needed confidence when starting a new job. They also needed that confidence to get to know somebody new. In this episode we will talk about why it’s important  and talk about how it can 1) help you be successful  2) help you with your social life 3) help you with your mental health and  4) if it can be learned

This episode features our friend Diane Closer. She’s a definite fighter and urges our listeners to break the silence.   In another installment of our fighter series we would like to remind our listeners that you are not alone. It is NOT your fault and help is available. Listen as Diane shares her story of how she fought domestic violence not once but twice. This is an episode you don't want to miss!   We know that this is a sensitive topic for some. But we couldn’t let October pass and not acknowledge this. We are definitely advocates for raising awareness. Thank you as always for listening with an open heart and mind.

We have talked about all the ways to become confident. So what happens when your confidence is challenged. Do you just give up or do you take a different route despite the challenge. Let's talk about how you get back up after your confidence has been defeated. 

Our next fighter is Lanette. She shares her journey and how she fought breast cancer. Her grace and positive out look is heard in everything that she says. Since she has been a survivor she continues to support women on their fight. He journey has led her to her passion of photography. Listen to her journey and her heart. We were so blessed to share her story. 

Our Fighter series continues with part 2, Fighting Heart Disease.  Although Women's Heart Month isn't until February we didn't want our fighter series to go on without also featuring an amazing fighter who survived a heart attack and has had to fight heart disease since this very scary event. Our friend Rose Rodriguez is a heart attack survivor and fights against heart disease every day. A battle which we believe she has already won.

October is known for many things including Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month.   Many families grieve in silence over the loss of a baby. Perhaps it’s because they want to shelter their feelings in effort to protect themselves  or maybe because they feel shame.  It’s hard to say unless you are going through it.   Because of this we wanted to bring awareness and invited our friend Rocio Vargas to share her story with us.   We must disclose that this episode does cover a very sensitive topic and we understand if it may be hard to listen to. We encourage you to listen with an open heart and mind.

We share our struggles, our disregard and our obsession around weight and we hope that someone out there knows that they are not alone in this. Take a listen to this episode and let’s start to change our mindset.

A healthy self-esteem is important for healthy partnerships. Sometimes your partner can help build your confidence or sometimes can destroy your confidence.  In this episode we talk about how can you and your partner find confidence in each other. And also how having confidence can help you distinguish between a healthy and a unhealthy relationship

Building confidence doesn't  come naturally al the time.  For some or most people, it takes practice, learning skills, and sometimes taking chances.  In this episode we will talk about how taking action helps you build confidence.

Real women sharing real stories.
