"When we beat
ourselves up, we think we are being honest by pointing
out our faults before anyone else can. Yet what we are
really doing is reinforcing our fear by telling ourselves
over and over why things are they way they are. That makes
us feel powerful, unable to change our circumstances."
Rhonda Britten
Client Feedback:
Barb has been able to 'shine the light' into some
areas of me that I was unable to see by myself.
I have used these new awarenesses, along with the Fearless
Living Program to make different choices and I am enjoying
my life more than I ever have before! Deb
"The solution, then, is to begin the process
of altering the way you talk to yourself and the way you
talk about yourself to others."
