About this audiobook
This self growth focused motivational book teaches you how to find yourself. Target harmful patterns. Surrounded by the pressures of society, we often measure ourselves by impossible standards, causing us to doubt ourselves. When this causes negative self-talk, our happiness inevitably suffers. Unhealthy mindsets can also infiltrate our relationships with others. Women can feel the need to be caretakers and sometimes put others' needs above our own. By identifying these patterns, we can set boundaries and target areas that need change-so you can love yourself properly. Become a loving friend to yourself. While all of us certainly have a calling to love others, it is just as important to give that same love to yourself. It feels good to be yourself, but you must find yourself first. In this emotional strength book, Patton shares impactful stories to show readers how to journey from a place of fear to a life of courageous self-acceptance and real love. Inside you'll find: how to find and be yourself through the pressures of today; stories of growth and healing from Patton and other women; and how to set boundaries, communicate more effectively, and change self-deprecating behaviors.
