Body stress is something everyone deals with and today I’m sharing one of the most important things we can do to feel confident in our bodies!

What to do if You’re Afraid to Raise your Hand in School

I totally relate to being nervous about speaking in school! I worried about what other people thought and if I was going to sound stupid. Being in my own head really took me out of the moment.
