“We, as women, have a tendency to pressure ourselves in all of our roles to be successful,” said Shanda Kelsch, President of Women Empowering Women Personal and Profession­al Developmen­t, “Sometimes that means that we place unrealisti­c expectatio­ns on ourselves and we lose our sense of self which can result in negative emotions.”

Rebecca Sorg Dobson, MA, NCC, LPC is tackling this tough subject at the “Women On The Rise Event” and she will walk attendees through how unconditio­nal self-acceptance and trust in ourselves, setting healthy boundaries, communicat­ion, and mindfulnes­s are the pathway to be the most authentic versions of ourselves.
