This is the first part of a blog series that I introduced back in September, titled A Journey through Self.

Finding my Confidence
Fun fact: Despite my consistency in the gym, I still sometimes battle with the level of confidence I have with myself. It’s crazy, I know; but it is possible to work very hard at something and still not always feel like you look as good as others may see you. I’ve received many compliments on…
