See Yourself Through Others That Admire You
It's time to get mighty clear about what makes you happy and what makes you feel the most alive, and then create it instead of pretending you can't have it. Greetings, Badass! The cards in this deck were created from my book, You Are a Badass: How to Stop Doubting Your Greatness and Start Living an Awesome Life. Half the cards contain quotes you can use as affirmations, intention-setters, wake-up calls, and reminders of how powerful and lovable you are. The other half contain exercises and loving kicks in the rear to get/keep you moving in the direction you want to go and to help you push yourself out of your comfort zone. Jen Sincero
