So much Inspiration, Self-Love and Authenticity

By Nicole K | Published December 14, 2012

The last few weeks I’ve experienced quite a range of emotions – from soul-aching sadness to heart-melting happiness. It has been quite a ride, but I’ve never felt more alive than I do right now.

Finding My Compassionate Badass Balance

By Molly Mahar | Published June 11, 2012

When I’m being kind to myself, I’m finding the balance between accepting what is present in my life AND respecting myself by using my talents and purpose at the highest level. My kindness is both a bear hug and a smack on the butt…

Taking Back My Beauty

By Arielle | Published June 4, 2012

Sure, I could be thinner. And I could continue letting that get me down, thinking I’m not worthy of love or affection. Or, I can find whatever it is out there that makes me hold my head high and say to the world, “Let’s face it, guys. I’m pretty awesome.”

By Arielle | Published May 7, 2012

Writing this card was the first real test of whether or not my attitude toward myself had changed since I started Fierce Love. Was I truly starting to love myself for who I was, or was I going to continue letting external negativity bring me down?

Putting Health First

By Kristen | Published November 4, 2011

I am an emotional eater, as well as a person who eats when they are bored, and then shuts down and becomes a couch dweller when things get tough. I’m also a hater of the gym.

While I do have moments when I am angry at myself for allowing such a slow decline, I am not dwelling on the number of pounds. I’m doing something about it.

By Laurenne | Published November 2, 2011

I’ve done a few silent meditation retreats in my life. Each time I’ve learned so much about who I am. After listening to my mean thoughts, I’ve finally learned to silence them and love myself. PHEW!

Little Girl, New World

By Kristen | Published October 21, 2011

My Quarter Life Crisis brought with it a serious self-image problem. Before the QLC, my lively, optimistic attitude came through in whatever I was doing. The QLC lessened that greatly and made severe self-doubt and indecisiveness my middle name.
