Stop Shrinking to Make Others Comfortable: Confidence Lessons for Moms

As moms, we’re conditioned to put others first. From the moment our babies arrive, the world seems to whisper (and sometimes shout) that our needs don’t matter as much as everyone else’s.

The Power of Saying No: How Boundaries Protect Your Worth

“I just didn’t want to disappoint anyone.” How many times have we said that while saying yes to something we didn’t want to do?
