how to build self confidence & increase self esteem

Image
hey everyone! i hope you are feeling fantastic today ♥ today i want to share with you a video that i created a while back, but that i've been thinking about a lot lately - especially since my return from Australia. self confidence 101 took a lot of emotional energy to create, and a lot of time went into making sure that i shared only sound advice with you. in the video i share a little of my journey to becoming a more self confident woman, tips and advice i've learnt along the way and practical steps on how you can get there too. i believe that true confidence is something that can be learnt - it's not something you are born with. so without further ado, please check out the video, and then read on for more of my story, as well as tips, links and further advice... so, i hope that this has inspired you to live without fear, and to take charge of your life! once i'd uploaded this i got lots of emails from people who've had difficulty making big decisions, or who suff...

hey everyone! i hope you are all having a beautiful day :) it's been wonderfully sunny in England lately - everyone keeps thanking me for bringing back some of the Ozzie sunshine! how unusual to get the 3rd hottest day of the year on the 2nd of october?! anyway, i'm not complaining... here is a video that i filmed with Tracy, The Love Vitamin , whilst i was down under. we decided to switch the camera on and talk a little about protein, our experience of it and a bit more of it's importance for your health. keep reading onwards for more of an in depth chat about protein and skin: protein is of vital importance to good looking skin, and a well functioning body - it contains the building blocks that help our cells function normally and keep stable. without protein, i've noticed that my skin gets really out of shape, and loses it's natural 'glow'. there are many different sources of protein - meat, fish, eggs, dairy, pulses, nuts, and vegetables. but which is th...
