Love Wins! Marriage Equality for Everyone!

Yesterday I woke up and found out that the Supreme Court ruled on a 5-to-4 vote that the Constitution guarantees the right to same-sex marriage.  Yesterday marked a historical moment in America! There were rainbow flags on Facebook, the Whitehouse, and Google; just to name a few! I feel so fortunate to experience a moment where marriage between two beautiful souls is no longer based on gender.  

June is the month to celebrate LGBT community across the country.   I have been listening to speakers and stories, and watching videos on the milestone that the LGBT community has overcome.  Yesterday, Friday, June 26, 2015 was the biggest accomplishment for the LGBT community and friends; not only legally practice their marriage rights, but also experience the joy of being married. 


Congrats to the LGTB community and America!!

In Search of Self-Confidence



How to get your self-confidence back? 

There are times in life where we experience a lack of confidence in oneself.  Then again, there are times where we experience self-love and have confidence.  It really depends on what is going on in one's life.

In the last few years, I had nominated myself for promotion opportunities and tried out for  yoga instructor auditions and U.S. Diplomat interviews.  However, I found myself walking away empty-handed.  Every time, I kept applying and trying out for these opportunities, I lost self-esteem.  I was at a point where I let these external factors impact my self-confidence.  Then I realized that these experiences are not a failure.  Something needed to change.  I decided to take positive action in my life and began looking at other options...

I started learning how to regain back my self-confidence.  I started watching some of TedTalks on confidence and self-love to motivate me.  Here is a favorite...

Amy Cuddy TedTalks: WOW! This woman is amazing! I feel that I can relate to her experiences and negative self-talk.  If she can do it...then, I'm going to try some these Power Poses! :)
