Words We Carry

"I have been a great critic of myself for most of my life, and I was darned good at it, deflating my own ego without the help of anyone else."

Words We Carry focuses around women's self-esteem issues. My essays focus on my own experiences I suffered from my younger years when I was left to feel inadequate and harbored a deep inferiority complex.
Being a memoir, the stories are told through my own struggles, and I share the methods I used to try and conquer my feelings of low self-esteem.
The stories progress with the impact that the residual damages have on our feelings of insecurity as we carry through into life and relationships.
