Host: Why is it important to know and like who I am?

Ria Moore Benedict: It is important to know and like who you are, because you are trying to achieve the greatest life that you can have for your self and frankly the way you treat yourself is the way other people are going to treat you. You teach people how to treat you by the way that you take care of yourself. So, the first thing you should do is know who you are, you are never going to master that buts it's going to be a really fun process trying. You are going to be a constantly developing person so, have the courage to challenge yourself constantly. How you know if you are not in that mood or you are going to be a really indecisive, you are going to be more of a fouler, you are not really going to understand what your likes and dislikes are, so you really should take some time and figure out what it is that you do like and it's a process that you might have to do several times in your life because as I said, you are going to constantly grow and change and things that work for you today, may not work for you in five years from now.

Some of the other techniques that you can do to really love yourself and to love that person is to say positive affirmations to yourself, because you have to be able to love yourself before anyone else can love you. So, one of the thing you can do, is to look at yourself in the mirror and say, I Love You several times. It seems like a really simple thing but it s actually kind of hard and a funny thing to do, when you are standing and looking at yourself and you are by yourself in the room, just talking to you in the mirror but it's a really great thing to do for your positive self image.

This business was created from my own journey to love myself after a life of being a perfectionist, overworking, major health issues, a 6-year unfulfilling marriage (and subsequent divorce), and doing what everyone else wanted me to do and be.
