SLP 272: Belief In Yourself Takes Time with Amy Bennett
‘The more that I leant into who I was, became who I was, the more people I felt courageously opened up to be that themselves as well. It doesn’t have to be pink hair – I mean I’m just crazy enough to do that, that’s probably my Danish Viking warrior blood, we’re pretty wild – but really belief in yourself takes time. Having good people around you that pick you up and build you up. I definitely am the first person to say I can be really horrible to myself, and I guess when you say those things aloud and other people tell you that it’s not a nice way to speak to yourself. So, having good people in your corner. But be that good person to other people for that reason. Compliment people every single time you see something beautiful about someone.’ ~ Amy Bennett

Her favourite quote is from her mentor Karen Hannah.
‘Get curious not furious.’

Quotes:
My mum is an absolute superstar learned from her the importance of giving back
We were not allowed to be bored.
Hard work I learned as a necessity.
I am selling that sunshine and magic
It doesn’t happen unless you do it yourself
You have to be courageous to give to others
People are dealing with their own concerns and insecurities
Belief in yourself takes time
Don’t think about it, fear holds you back
If you think something say it
Say nice things and do good things
All will be well
We don’t always need to know everyone’s business
Switching off and having that break is good
Apply your own lense with good people around you
Before, during, after or under, over, off
Dreams do come true, heart and souls can work together
There is no such thing as a coincidence
If I don’t have it in the tank I can’t give it
We cannot be everything to every body
And it’s ok to not be 100% at every thing
Self-care is stopping and letting my brain slow down
I hope every single person has that someone who will be there for them
We often do what we wish we had
Get curious not furious
