RESPECT!

So often these days, I see young women that have no respect for themselves. They degrade themselves in public, claiming shock value or independence. It seems the mentality of many women, that if they degrade or victimize themselves before anyone else can - that somehow gives them power.

In actuality, it just gives away pieces of yourself and grants others the permission to treat you with less respect than you deserve. This leads to poor and unhealthy relationships, self worth issues and re-victimization.



If you don't respect yourself, how do you expect anyone else to.

Self worth is something that is not gained from other people or outside sources, rather it is cultivated from within. True self empowerment never comes from self deprecation.

Believe in your own Self Worth!

Love Yourself First

Often during the whirlwind of the season of Love, we forget about one of the most important Loves of All ~

Loving Yourself

We must first love ourselves with all of our flaws and shortcomings before anyone else can truly love us. 

• Tell yourself every morning how marvelous you are.
• Do something nice for yourself on a regular basis. 
• Don't talk bad about yourself, even to yourself.
• Don't sell yourself short.  
• Be kind to yourself.
• Forgive yourself.

Loving yourself is the foundation of a stable, happy, well adapted individual who can then form meaningful, healthy, and loving relationships with others. 

¡Happiness is within!
