Who/what contributed to your inner strength?
My faith in God is what most contributes to my inner strength and knowing that His love for me is ever present.
When in your life was your inner strength particularly tested and how did you deal with the incident?
I was a victim of a violent crime in my early 20s which tested my inner strength to the max. I had to completely start over with building my self confidence and belief that I was a worthwhile person. I had to learn to trust in others and trust in God. I learned that no matter what happens in life with a strong belief in yourself and strong inner strength I can overcome anything.
What suggestions do you have to help people realize their capabilities?
Belief in yourself and surround yourself with an incredible support system.
Why is it important to focus on inner strength?
I think that true confidence comes from inside. When you truly believe in yourself, then you can do anything.
What are your next goals and what positive thoughts or activities keep you striving toward your goals?
My next goal is to be a nationally known speaker for women who want to gain back control of their life and feel fantastic about themselves. I keep working toward this goal because I know what I teach can truly change a person’s life.
