Getting Beyond Surface Emotions and Why 'Bootstrapping' Doesn't Work in the Long Run: Interview with Sharon Hughes
Show Notes

When we don't take time to grieve and feel our tough emotions, the pain  often resurfaces.

That's what Sharon Hughes found after a lifetime of "bootstrapping," skimming over big issues in her life like trauma in her childhood, an assault as a teen, and a later, divorce.

Today, she's a confidence coach who helps faith-based women give themselves permission to pursue their dreams and succeed, and the author of The Girl in the Garage. Connect with her at SharonHughes.net.

You will learn:
* Proclaiming a goal publicly can increase our accountability.
*Believing a lie can be as powerful as believing the truth.
* Each of us has the power of choice, even if we don't like the options we have at times.
