You are enough, you really are. The thing is I can tell you this 1000 times unless your Self-esteem agrees with me, this will just be another motivational post. See your self-esteem as your personal evaluation of your own worth.  It considers beliefs about yourself...Like you are enough, you are important, you are worthy. Self-esteem also considers your emotional states.  Self-esteem dictates if you're showing up in this fascinating life #winning or if your actions and behaviours are led by shame.. On the other hand, self Confidence is not walking into a room and feeling better than everyone there, it's walking into a room and not having to compare yourself at all. Confidence is the ability to trust yourself and the desired outcome. Just like that fascinating life, you have right now, the fabulous future you're creating.

Have you ever heard of the term decision fatigue?   If not, let me catch you up. As the name suggests, decision fatigue basically means that the more choices we have to make, the less likely we will make good ones (sounds like some guys I know lol).   Anyways, this is a mind-boggling phenomenon where a person's capacity to make good decisions diminishes as the number of decisions they have to make increases.     Research shows that as millennials, we have far more decisions to make than our parents did at our age simply because of the number of options we have.  From simple decisions like the kind of shoes to buy to more substantial ones like deciding where and when to buy a home, we are bombarded with choices.  And the more choices we have, the more decisions we get to make, which can be EXHAUSTING! But do not fear, this episode will help you figure it all out. I love you so much for listening.  Be sure to like the episode and subscribe so you never miss new ones.
