      Cliché moment sorry…I think it comes down to accepting and liking yourself. I’m nowhere near that yet but I find being with good people helps confidence. Genuine people. Confidence doesn’t come naturally to ne, never has, but we’ve all changed so it’s even more difficult to find?!? I think if you have a goal you got to try going for it. What’s the worst that could happen? You get a NO?

      We have to push ourselves and believe in ourself. Think ahead, make plans, dream, believe. Try.

      Good stuff can and will happen if we try. Put yourself out there. You know the red flags, avoid them. Make life about you x
