WHY NOT YOU? 28 Days to Authentic Confidence

Christian motivational expert and life coach Valorie Burton shares the secret to what she calls authentic confidence--self-confidence plus faith in God. Burton's well-paced, clearly articulated voice is easy on the ear, and she's a pleasantly encouraging companion. Her message, which frequently draws on her own stories and those of her clients, is delivered in a 28-day plan with short, focused sessions that encourage listeners to increase their self-confidence in practical ways. Each lesson has its own focus ("preparing with purpose" or "self-esteem stealers"). Each ends with a confidence prayer, a question to address in one's confidence journal, and a confidence-building activity. Burton conveys a genuine desire to help listeners avoid "downsizing their dreams" and to live "fully and freely." J.C.G. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2008]
