Why do we limit ourselves from reaching our greatest potential?
Why do we stand on the sidelines while others rush toward their goals?
Can we overcome challenges and adversities despite our environment and upbringing?
I often see it when some people, especially women, limit themselves due to their upbringing, environment, or "society's expectations." They know there is so much to aspire to, but they either don't firmly believe in themselves or let others define that for them.
With the inspiration and tools provided in this book, you will feel empowered to get out of your "comfort zone" and challenge yourself so that you can take action to begin writing your success story.
I want you to know you have great potential within YOU and can shine bright like a diamond!
This book is written through the eyes of a young girl who saw herself alone throughout her youth and was destined to fail. Having to witness her mother go down a path of addiction to gambling, she had to grow up alone without a constant role model to support her creativity and aspirations.
Based on her true stories from her upbringing in New York City to her enlistment in the United States Military. She details how a tumultuous upbringing and lack of nurturing brought about a lack of self-worth and self-acceptance, leading to self-discovery and success. By changing her environment and taking the leap of faith, she found the purpose, mentorship, camaraderie, encouragement, and support she needed to believe in herself and her creativity. She challenged those self-limiting beliefs to become the leader she is today. This can be you too!
The survival skills she developed and the life principles highlighted in this book will empower you to look within to find your compass and your true north.
"We all live in an endless sea of possibilities, but if you are adrift, you can find the tools you need to begin building your sailboat... The answers lie within." Shirley Baez
