Ah, self love. I had it when I was a child and then lost it along the way. The first memory I have of becoming self-conscious about  a physical attribute came in junior high.

I can remember the moment vividly. I was 14 years old, walking down the corridor of my school, laughing with some friends when out of no where an ex-boyfriend of mine ran up in front of me and said,

Hey Erin, this is you!”

while walking like a bow-legged cowboy. THAT was the moment I discovered that the shape of my calves were not okay. I even went to a doctor to ask for legs braces I could wear at night to straighten them. (Continued below the video)

There are multiple memories that affected my self love but the moment everything profoundly changed for me was

the year I moved to France .

I witnessed how French Women actually took unique characteristics of themselves and made it into the one thing that made them “unique”.

Gaps in the teeth, small breasts, curly hair…you name it they adored it. And consequently…so did everyone else.

My experience in France started my Pilgrimage inward – not to find out all the things I needed to “fix” about myself…to discover everything I LOVED about myself. And from that place, my self love and self confidence rose steadily.

I began only accepting certain types of friends and partners in my life and I asked for things that I wanted because I knew I deserved them!

The ripple effect of self love is tremendous and that is why I have dedicated the month of May to Self Love and Self Confidence.

I explain the Elegant Solution to Falling in Love with yourself in the video above. Have a watch!
