Confidence & Self-Esteem coaching with Susan
Not ready for a boudoir shoot?
I’ve had women tell me they’ve followed my page for years before they ever called. They lacked the confidence to do a boudoir shoot. Some never actually come in. They pop up from time to time, always intending. But then they balk. And sadly, disappear again.
Truth be told, whether or not you ever engage in a shoot, a lack of self-esteem and self-confidence can wreak havoc on our lives.
Things such as:
NOT showing up fully in your career and therefore limiting your influence and earning potential;
NEVER making the courageous decisions that ultimately stretch your abilities so you finally discover what you’re REALLY made of;
FAILING to hold out for quality relationships and instead SUFFERING through intolerable ones because you don’t clearly see your own worth.
We women tend to tolerate low self-esteem and a lack of self-confidence as if it’s the natural way of being in the world. But it isn’t. A lack of self-confidence is a monster that stretches its tentacles across all major areas of our lives: career, finances, creative pursuits, relationships (friends, family, lovers, even ourselves), and ultimately, impacts our health, happiness & sense of well-being.
If THIS RESONATES, I see you.
Know why? Because I myself struggled for years with low self-esteem so I recognize the invisible chains it represents.
When we struggle with low self-confidence or low-self esteem we tend to:
Miss out on opportunities to ADVANCE ourselves or make CONNECTIONS that would BENEFIT us
Avoid stretching ourselves (due to fear of failure) and so we never REALLY learn what we’re truly CAPABLE of
Settle for less than what we DESERVE
Sit down rather than STAND UP and STAND OUT
Tolerate things and relationships when we know we DESERVE BETTER
Set the bar low in FRIENDSHIPS, giving more than we RECEIVE in return
Stay “hidden” for fear of being truly “SEEN”
Berate ourselves for being less than perfect, not the ideal, while ignoring all our MAGICAL QUALITIES
Suffer from depression, anxiety, and sadness, when we want JOY, PEACE, HAPPINESS
If we stay this way too long, we begin to experience not just emotional, but physical repercussions and illnesses as well
