The Confidence Sessions

About us

I started to say no. I started to believe in myself–and realized I had a lot of shame from how I was raised—and that shame spilled over into my other relationships. Fear and shame had shaped many of my decisions. So often, girls are expected to be quiet and small. Women who aren’t quiet and small seem to not have a place, whether in church, in the job market, or even at home–as daughters and as wives. But over time, we lose who we are, and even who I believe God intended us to be–made in his image–powerful, strong, loving, shameless individuals. Many of us have forgotten that over the years. We became wives and mothers and forgot that we are individuals first.
