Protect yourself from negativity with self-esteem
Anne Ockene Boudreau
Author
“Self-love is simply the source of all the good things you want to feel in yourself.” Said Anne. “It provides contentment, joy, the courage to do what is right, a measure of freedom against anxiety and depression. With self-esteem, you can transcend and survive everything.”
Anne Ockene Boudreau is an author, coach and inspirational executive who is dedicated to helping others develop healthy self-esteem. In her new book, “A Human Mosaic: Healing, Renewing and Developing Self-Esteem”, she reveals how self-esteem is an essential element for lasting personal change.
Anne’s desire to focus on the subject of self-esteem stems from her lifelong passion for addressing the range of mental, emotional, physical and spiritual issues that prevent a person from feeling fulfilled and enjoying the inner peace. As she learned during her difficult early years, low self-esteem is a root cause of negativity, fear, anger, hatred, violence, bullying and bigotry.
After years of research and study, Anne has developed a unique niche by helping others build self-esteem based on neuroplasticity – changing her brain by learning new thoughts and new behaviors. His in-depth knowledge of the science of neuroplasticity has been instrumental in mentoring and teaching sustainable change. By creating new neural pathways in the brain, anyone at any age or stage of life can transform themselves to live with healthy self-esteem and live the life they dreamed of.
Prior to her writing career, Anne was Director of Marketing and Communications for many global companies. During her 22 years as a business executive, she has created programs to boost staff morale, increase internal communications and train staff in winning methods of customer service.
Born in Santiago, Chile, Anne lived in South America and Europe, has traveled a lot and is multilingual. She graduated from Northwestern University in English and in writing. Through broad exposure to many cultures, she gained a deep understanding of the importance of spreading acceptance, compassion, respect, peace and love.
“A human mosaic: healing, renewing and developing self-esteem” is the foundation of the self-improvement genre. The ability to look within for strength, courage and compassion has never counted as much as it does in our unstable world today.
Anne lives in Atlanta with her husband, three lively children and three attention-hungry canines who rarely leave her. Learn more at www.LanguageOfSelfWorth.com.

The surprising benefit of adopting a homeless animal
Carol Novello

Mutual rescue
“When people adopt a homeless pet, two things are generally clear: first, they save the animal from roaming, and second, they add the company of animals to their lives.
