• Maintaining Self-Esteem

Beyond thinking happy thoughts, self-esteem and confidence require an outlet of expression, support and nurturing. Nova has struggled with acceptance, abuse and addiction – hardly fertile ground for a strong self-image. With humor, anecdotes and wisdom learned the hard way, Nova paints a powerful picture of someone who chose to do the work of improving and demonstrates how to extract the message from the mess. “When the roots of self-worth are deep, the storms of life can rage and you will remain standing.”
