I mean WHAT A GUY RIGHT!!

How is it that we can see the beauty in others and love others so easy but when it comes to us we berate, hate and abuse ourselves

We don’t think we are beautiful and we would not even DREAM of saying that we love ourselves

You have to ask, is that right? is that healthy?

We feel that this needs be put right, but how can you do that?

Well fear not our little beauties we have an EXPERT in all things beauty and self love coming to talk to you all next week

By going through her own journey, she realised her purpose in life is to help others with their self-confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth and to help people to reach a place where they are fully comfortable in their own body.

Her mission in life is to help people reach a place of Unconditional Self-Love, as with this she believes we have the power to live a happy, joy-filled, meaningful life.

She believes that we are all amazing and have the power to do incredible things in the world.

Why do we find it hard to see ourselves a beautiful?

Why do we have a hard time loving ourselves?

Why is it easy to love and see the beauty in others and not ourselves?

Why is it important that we do see ourselves as beautiful and love ourselves?

What does it mean and look like to love ourselves unconditionally?

AND

The big ones...

HOW can we get to a point where we love and accept ourselves

We cannot wait to speak to Alysha about all this it's going to be something pretty amazing!
