PART 1: Why Your Reputation Matters More Than Ever

Hey lady! This week Dr. Dom and Terri dive into an important, but sometimes touchy topic. What you think about yourself and what others think about you are two different concepts that radically impact your life. Self-esteem and self-regard are what keep your self-concept in check but your reputation is built on variable factors – few of which are in your control. The good news is there are strategies to help you improve your reputation and all of them are in your control. Terri and Dr. Dom offer perspective on why building strong character matters more than creating an image built on controlling people’s perception of you. Don’t get it twisted, your image matters and so does the narrative around you but the incredible thing about living is that at any moment you can own your narrative and write a new story based on what is true to you and your life experience. Lady, this episode is jam packed with richness to help you gain clarity about how to present the best, most real version of yourself. You deserve to live in a world where you are respected and valued, but that first starts with you!   Quote of the Day: “Deal with yourself as an individual worthy of respect and make everyone else deal with you the same way.” – Nikki Giovanni   Know what you’re looking for?
