Speak to yourself with love and kindness... so true Dominique, I’m 62 years old and I’m just learning to speak and treat my self with love and kindness.
I am 63 and I am now also beginning to be kinder to myself. I was told all my life and I still am told by my mother that she never loved me. D’s suggestions are exactly on point.
You're such a warm, welcoming and kind presence in this loud and aggressive world. Thank you for being you and always making such an effort, to help your fellow human beings.
Hi it's Annie Stuart thank you for this video it is very helpful to have watched on this on topic of confidence. it is something most of us lack and really need to work on constantly. Thou you have a way of making it all so easy. Possibly as it comes to you more naturally.
Your timing, this week, was perfect for me! Boy, did I NEED to hear this!...I was a stay at home mom of 4 children...As I have gotten older, and am at home, most of the time alone, I sometimes let the negative thoughts and feelings about getting older cloud my view. I am married to a wonderful man, who I love dearly, he is also 7 years younger than me and as I have "aged", I found that I was beginning to focus on that age difference more! The other night I had a "meltdown" about it all. My husband is the head of a large Human Resource Mental health Organization and has many employees under him...some of whom are female and younger than me. I am writing all of this just to say, that you are so right, that we NEED to spend time in self, positive talk! I am blessed, because my husband realized my struggle and said the most precious, beautiful words back to me...I think, for women, it is so IMPORTANT to have a safe community of other women, that we can depend on and share with! I just have to reiterate that your Channel, your Forum, is just that!.... A safe place to land!!! Thank You....
This is coming to me at the perfect time. Too bad everyone couldn’t see this. I am keeping this one and watching it again. I will make notes and keep it close to me. I am 50 and still need this. Thank you so much for making this video and being so kind with your words and guidance.
My thoughts exactly, I’m watching this at bed time and clicked save to my favorites so that I can take notes tomorrow. I’ve been struggling in this more than usual lately and is causing stress and anxiety in my life.
It took me 35 years to realize that my family's lack of belief in me had nothing to do with my abilities and everything to do with their own self-imposed limitations. They couldn't envision more for themselves so how could they ever envision it for me. They would call me a dreamer and roll their eyes. I was a 6 and that message stuck for a long time, but I eventually followed my dreams and lived according to my own script. Now instead of being angry with them, I can be empathetic.
I wish I could love your comment a thousand times! I grew up like this and was always told not to do something either because it was dangerous or I could fail. It took me years to overcome self doubt and believe in myself and my abilities! Cheers 💕🌺
I have always been told that I am great at motivating people. I have to admit that I fall short motivating myself. This video I will watch over & over again. Thanks for the pep talk, I feel like you were speaking directly to me!
As I watched this video I thought to myself, " Dominique is such a beautiful person both inside and out!" I love your inspiring messages to us. It's not often that you get the sense that others really care but you always exude how much you care about others. Love the positivity messages. Keep inspiring and thank you so much for all you do!
I’ve found that negative thoughts like “I can’t do this, or it won’t work” become self fulfilling prophecies! Instead think that you CAN do something and watch what happens, that becomes the self fulfilling prophecy!!!!
Dominique, what a well-thought out, well-spoken & valuable video. I needed this so much that I teared up watching. You’re points make such sense. Thank you for being so mindful and self-aware in presenting this content. Melissa 🌼
I think this has been the best video that I've watched on your channel. (and so timely) I have been a stay at home mom for nearly 30 years. Just this last year, I took a temporary job to get my feet wet. A lot of people that I interacted with at my job somehow felt threatened by me or that I was somehow competition. I didn't in the least feel flattered by this as I'm so new going back into the work force and just trying to feel confident in my own skin and in what I'm doing. I'm not really sure why we do this to each other. It would have been so helpful for people to say, "wow you are really brave trying to do this at this point in your life." I really appreciate your kind words and encouragement that there are a few things I can do to boost how I'm feeling inside. I've always struggled with self confidence. I'm glad there are some nice teachers like you out there.
I love the idea of speaking to yourself with kindness, I’ve just turned 51 and was useless at school and was told age 11 by the Headmaster that due to my grade in Geography I wouldn’t amount to much in fact once he read my appalling grade out to the class, he proclaimed I wouldn’t truly get lost! This affected my confidence in the most awful way, I’ve been a cleaner in people’s homes for 37 years, so that I don’t have to face people that much. I’m not sure I can make a change overnight but this little chat, has acknowledged a topic that is long overdue, thank you for bringing it to the fore.
Sorry that you had to go through that, hopefully you can now realise that you are much more than what somebody says about you, good luck with your journey, its never too late :) x
I know the grades you make in school does not reflect your intelligence . Some of the smartest people I know made bad grades in school . That just wasn’t their thing or that way to learn and I’ve known people that made straight A’s are good at memorization, but can’t use it in real life and appear to be not so smart . So put all that school trauma behind you if you can and be the new you .
Dominique thank you so much, you came to the right time, and God put you here today with powerful words of courage and love. I really need this right now. I being feeling down in this week and all your words got to my heart. God bless you always for caring for others.❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thank you for such beautiful, uplifting and sound advice! At my age, 71, your words have served me as a reminder of values learned during my childhood and youth but because of personal circumstances have lately felt inadequate and terribly vulnerable. Your spiritual insight has been especially inspiring to me. God bless you and yours always! You are a lovely woman but more importantly you are a proof of the power of interior beauty. Please continue to inspire us.
I LOVE you! You’re like the sister I never had. You’re the absolute best TH-camr I’ve found who’s also a creative like myself and a Christian. You’re really well-balanced with both the natural and the spiritual and I really appreciate that. I’m so happy I found you. Thank you for sharing from your heart 😘
So glad I watched this video. I actually searched the words and saw familiar face I trust..after what can only be described as a pivotal lifte changing moment in December just gone , I decided I need to focus on my family not my job. 18 years in a job where I wasn’t appreciated and I took a leap of faith, with no self confidence. Got myself a new job , on a path where I want to be, helping people. I will have weekends off and most of all I have done myself proud and took on the advice my mother gave me a thousand times. Wish I had the courage to have done it before she suddenly passed. 2 months ago, but I can’t change that. Just look forward . Thanks again Dominique xx
I have practiced self love and confidence for a long time. I grew up with a controlling mother and it was always about her. When I went on my own I knew I had to work on a lot to let go of her and how I was treated. I am a strong and confident woman because I believe in myself. It made a big difference in my life in so many ways. Thank you for this video and all that you do.
Thank you, this content is so valuable. When I was in my psych rotation in my nurses training (in the 70's) I was moved by what I learned about depression. The prescribed treatment was to "do for others", yes your 5th recommendation. I remember being so taken with that, to get out of your own problems, help someone else. ❤
One confidence booster I have found, is to keep my word to myself. If I write down To Dos/Goals, etc., I make it my purpose to get those things accomplished. This has fostered a greater sense of trust in myself and my determination. Professionally, I find it very empowering to speak out loud the many ways I am great at my job. It's especially helpful when I am in the car, alone, travelling to work when I am anticipating a meeting, attempting a new task, etc. Having spent countless hours in the preparation phase you mentioned, this practice of speaking out loud has been like icing on the cake. Thanks for opening this very important topic!
As always, so profound, encouraging and uplifting. My "feel good switch" goes off every Thursday when I watch your videos. Thank you isn't enough but it is heartfelt. Hugs and love from Toronto.
This is the refresher course I didn't know I needed, from my wise sister I never had!💕..Thank You Dominique!..This was a priceless gift (for my 60th bday!!!)💖
Dear Dominique, this is exactly what I should do next. Your video reached me just in the right time. I'm 46 and feel something outstanding is about to happen after this prophetic video. One of my thoughts/dreams to get in touch with you despite of millions people have the same in their minds. But somehow I could feel that it will happen because I literally feel this with my body and soul. That's how I can describe this. I got many talents and a special child raising alone. Let God multiply His Glory by using us 🙏
I am so glad I discovered your channel. This video really resonated with me. One year ago last April , I was done. The pain and hurt overcame me. I almost lost my family my job myself. I was diagnosed with borderline personally disorder. Divine intervention happened somehow I enrolled in intensive outpatient therapy and went hard core DBT or dialectical behavioral therapy. My life outlook relationships have been transformed I thought myself how to love myself from the inside out. Just as I love others from the inside out. It's been a tough lonely and scary journey but I won't quit. Thank you for your words of wisdom and great ideas to help me stay my course. God Bless
The world and the unreal expectations in the media can bring us down, but we’re all smart on this channel and want to be our best! You’re GOOD media! Listening to you is always a confidence booster. I’m not compelled to compare myself with you but go on the journey with you!
I have a lot of respect for you and I agree on many things you speak of. I often wonder if we would be more confident without the push for monetary wealth and physically altering our bodies? If you look at the narrative out there we do not seem like a society that is confident at all. Love your content and have a blessed day!! xoxo
@@renephillips6739 You got the right idea. Financial security builds trust in yourself and the physical fitness also gives you the confidence!! And a little botox here and there and I think you have found the key!!
Amazing discussion Dominique!! If you get tired of the news biz please use your heartfelt ,caring advice to become a motivational speaker.Young ,as well as mature women need someone like you to share content like this.Thank you so much!!
Oh my this brings back so much to me.. for years I spent living a life that I was put down, abused, I did not have any self confidence. I left that life moved away and started baby steps on where I wanted to be.. how I can achieve the goals I set... that was ten years ago! I went to college in my late fifties, little by little started gaining self confidence in all aspects of my life! I worked on me! I graduated top of my class! Each step I take I strive to look forward and succeed! It may not happen right away but if you want it you can do it! I left all drama! I live a life of grace with those around me that give me peace. I love helping others and try to do so in some way everyday! After all these years I have found the peace I so needed and I am still working on me but I am truly happy. Thank you for reaching out to those of us that truly needed to hear this! Love you lady and all you represent. Keep up the amazing work you do! ♥️ Kat from New York
Oh, Kathy, I so pray I can get there some day. I am 54 and still struggling and just want peace and confidence and not live for what anyone else thinks or says. I have an audience of ONE, this is GOD only.
Beautiful words.....your life now is what we all strive and yearn for. Peace of mind and body is the biggest achievement and we can all do it by taking little steps every day towards it x
Thank you for helping a 61 year old be healthy, look my best and take time for me! Your videos are so helpful and I cannot wait for Thursdays. I have a question though would you do a video on vacation makeup? I have a tendency to take EVERYTHING with me which is not practical!! The must haves, the not necessary items I can leave at home, etc.? Thank you!!
Dear Dominique, Your video is just what I needed! I am having a hard time at the moment but your words have done me good and I will take some things to heart and want to put them into practice! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
I had one friend who would sometimes say "I'm so stupid" or other such self put downs. I'd respond to her by saying "don't talk about my friend like that".
I’ve followed you since day one, and I can and have watched you and your channel grow to almost 1.5 million subscribers in only a couple years, well earned Dominique!
Thank you for posting this video. After working from home since March 2020, and now preparing to return to the office, I feel like I'm lacking in self confidence for some reason. I guess after working in yoga pants and not wearing makeup, I feel like I've forgotten how to get myself ready and out the door on a daily basis. Time to start brushing up on self confidence and people skills!
Thank you for this video. It really hit home for me. I am on the cusp of having an empty nest and I have been wondering what my direction will be. I’ve decided that after parenting dependant children for 30 years (14 year age gap between my kids) it will be me that becomes my focus. I am looking forward to spending more one on one time with my husband and to having more time to spend with my sister. I can really see myself becoming a confident, successful, helpful woman.
I love this content Dominique . I find a lot is mind over matter . I had a job where I stood up and talked to large groups of people every week and it didnt mean I was super confident but I remember if I woke up lacking in confidence and not wanting to mix or put myself out there, I used to change my mind set saying to myself today I am going to be fantastic at work and love mixing with everyone and have a great day and it worked !! Also my tip to speak to a large group was to chat as though your having a conversation with a friend and your delivery will be relaxed and chilled , if your uptight it does not flow and people feel uncomfortable xxx
Every word you said hits me right on the nail; I was holding back tears as you spoke. Lacking self confidence is the one thing my husband and I talk about and express how it has hindered our lives and wish we could get a do over for the past 45 years. As much as we have worked to overcome these type of obstacles, it is still a daily challenge because of those negative voices we hear and our childhood. You are so correct in changing the people around you in order to grow and overcome familiar negative thoughts. I taught my daughter from an early age to make friends with people who are more intelligent and had a higher socioeconomic level than herself so she could grow and have more positive and far reaching life experiences, and she did., but all the while being friendly to everyone. Her childhood was the very opposite of mine and my husband's. Our friends and co-workers are such a blessing to us, as they lift us up and we lift them up. Thank you so much for this, there is such kindness and sincerity in your voice.
Dominique you are such a professional in everything you do. I admire your many talents as a journalist, beauty consultant, life coach, mother and daughter. Your message is always well thought out, well organized and delivered impeccably! I look forward every week to your videos. A very sincere thank you for all your dedicated work!
I grew up in a very harsh environment but have learned to overcome the negative tape recorder my mother repeatedly instilled in us kids. Her favorite lines were, "you're not worth the salt in your tears" and "you'll never amount to a hill of beans". That's a horrible thing to say to your child...or anyone! I know now, I'm a child of the Most High God and I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! Thank you Dominique for helping so many overcome life's issues and pointing us in the right direction to gain confidence to become who we really are.
I was so amazed by your advice.. I'm loving your pointers and notes on how to change myself and love myself better for the good. Your voice is soothing to a point where it helps me to really think about myself and figure out how I can boost my self esteem or confidence to be a better person.
Dominique, this was one of the best videos about building self confidence I've ever seen 👏 I feel much better just by listening to you. As you said: " hearing those words" makes you think and do some changes. Especially when you hear that from someone whom you adore! Thank you very much for this very informative video! God bless you Dominique ❤
Each day for the last 3 days I have been given the message about the power of our words when I was reading something or listening to something. I begin each day with a list of powerful affirmations but I just added some declarations about a specific situation I am facing. I say those whenever the negative thoughts attack and believe in faith for the things I am hoping for. Life and death are in the power of the tongue.
This is why I love watching your channel! You speak truth with wisdom and grace. I think of myself as having self-confidence but listening to your 5 techniques, I am in need of a booster shot! Thank you so much for your channel. I do appreciate you!! Peace and Love ☮❤
I was thinking if you could do a video on what makeup brushes you are using. There are so many out there to choose from with different types for the same application. So maybe a back to basics on what brush to use for what application and why. I know you did a tools tutorial several years ago. Thank you!!
I have to thank you and this community of women. I have asked myself this question in the last few weeks puzzled by why I don't. When you started talking especially giving the definition of self confidence, it hit home. I didn't realize that I don't trust myself in some aspects. Thank you for helping to break this down so I can look at this one piece at a time. I'm keeping this too to watch again. Working through these steps will help me where this may come from and how to change it with a goal. It's calming when you explain in your comforting and gentle way. The thoughts aspire better. Spending time with yourself as you talked about is really key to this too. When you look good, you feel good, and you perform better. This is a lightbulb moment for me. Thank you so much.
Knowing your triggers with tools are important , more importantly for me is my meditation time and time spent prayer. It’s having that moment with God that empowers me daily. Putting on the armor I need for each day. I’m enjoying your channel more and more. Thanks so much
Wasn’t expecting to cry with this video 🥺 Thank you! I suffer from depression, specially after hitting menopause and weight gain.😭 In 2020 I also lost both my mom & dad.. Cancer & Heart attack😭 It’s just been a cruel year for me.
Anastasia 🧡 Menopause is tough but watch what you eat and get up and go for a walk. We are all here to hold you up! Your amazing and you have got this!! Life is waiting for you 🙌🏻🍑Lisa
I to felt depressed with menopause and gained weigh. I just wanted to add that so you know I understand how your feeling. These things have helped me tremendously🍑
Thank you for this video! I'm 40+ and feel as if I'm in the process of reinventing myself (careerwise) while nurturing my relationship with my kids & spouse. Because I do not have a 4 yrs degree, my confidence at work can waine a bit. However, I do my best to stay well informed regarding industry news & make it known to everyone my goal is to move up within the company. I fortunate to find many are willing to help. For those who are similar situations, just tell yourself what you would tell a best friend- "DON'T GIVE UP- YOU'VE GOT THIS!"
Your point about goals has really struck me. It has been very much on my mine lately, especially after this last year when I feel I have just been spinning my wheels. I will be 73 at the end of the month. Thoughts about what may lay ahead and what do I want for this time have been on my mind. Do I want to set specific goals? How long should the timeline for these goals be? Do I really want to make any major changes in my life at this point. My life is good - Thank God!
This was a breath of fresh air!! I needed to hear this. Thank you, Dominique! As always you look beautiful. You are such a lovely lady. You inspire us all! Blessings to you and yours. 💖
Dominique, this is my favorite of all. Spoken from the heart, genuine and, your eyes speak the truth. Wow! You are one good soul and sharing these tips, that I can draw and put in a frame, reminded me of what I do for myself, my family and others. All of what I do has given me the chance to live a happy life and to continue my purpose. I am happy and everyone around me is happy even through tough times, not all is dark and looking at things positively even if it is hard has made life so easier (we all have our problems). Thank you for this video and thank God I found you just a couple of months ago. You are a special human being. Bless you xx
I have been watching your channel for the past year mainly for beauty content which has been wonderful. However, today this video on self confidence was incredibly well thought out and put together. It is my favorite of everything you have done that I had the pleasure of viewing!!! Thank you, Thank you and God Bless!
Thank you for this! I am speaking at my mother’s funeral service tomorrow. My mother was a difficult parent throughout my life but I found a way to gather happy thoughts and share them with those that will be present. It will be a first but I need to get out of my comfort zone and take risks. I know it will be special. ❤️
I LOVE this! Thank you! So many can benefit from this! (speaking as a certified confidence coach). Last year I had a professional CV(resume) prepared for myself for a board position I was applying for. It was so empowering. She interviewed me for 2 hours and put my 30+ years of achievements into a document. I would have never been able to do that myself (maybe in a journal but not for a public document!)
Hey,dominique thank for this video,im so grateful that i find your youtube channal.sometimes we need to hear that you are special and that you need to do something for your self ,i dont think you realize how much you mean to so much woman out there. You touches my hard😭be blessed🤗🌷
Build self confidence has made me rise again. There is hope for us women who feel derailed. And tired of the world. You have been my mentor for putting me back on track and putting a spring in my step. I am so grateful to you for that. You are amazing at life coaching Us ladies. Thank you so much Jean (Ireland)
Self care and communication with God helps me so much..Taking care of myself externally and internally are so important. I appreciate so much that I wake up every morning and can move and do things that to most of us are basics and we don't even think of. Thank you God 🙏
Thank You so much for this video, I have been struggling with what to put in my self-care journal/planner. After this video, I am no longer struggling. I stopped your video numerous times to write your suggestions down, then my brain took over and I added more details to your list. Thank you once again for this video, my self-care journal/planner will no longer be bare!
Loved this! Thank you. Point 5 that you talk about - ‘Do for others’ is actually compassion. Compassion is the next step on from showing empathy, compassion is actually empathy plus an action. Showing compassion for others and ourselves releases endorphins that make us feel good which has a lot of benefits.
This video has (once again) come along at the most appropriate time. I am a 57 year old empty nester. I want to become a health coach (helping women through menopause and aging). I know that I need to start a web sight and blogging. This feels very overwhelming to me. I was discussing this with a good friend this morning. She suggested taking 15 minutes a day to write (anything the comes into my head). Also, possibly taking a writing course at the local junior college. Thank you again for this video...You look as gorgeous as ever.
Thank you so much, your words really touched my heart and I started tearing up when you were talking about the lord. I will start to work on myself more. thank you for your inspiration.
I love that, bad songs no dancing. It really says it all when we somehow only remember the bad things and the good things people say to us fall to the side. Thank you, again for a wonderful video. You're an amazing woman. ♥️
Thoughts becomes things. What you think as a person makes a blueprint in your brain. So choose for positive words. It really helps to grow (anja from belgium)
Excellent. What I like about your channel is you do talks like this with Beauty. I am graduating from college in May. I went back to school after my youngest went off to college. It's been 4 amazing years. What I love at 55 is being a life-long learner. Establishing new friends at my church, having time now for self-care and giving back. Thanks and so glad I found you on TH-cam. My favorite platform
I so often read “a reason, a season, a lifetime. It truly puts into perspective when a situation with someone changes and we wonder why. Sometime someone is there for a reason, to help, or a season just to help us when we need it for a season and last of all a lifetime they are there for the long haul. I have turned to this many times when I ask why? If you look it up it will explain it in more detail. Thank you for this empowering talk. 😘
You’re amazing! I’m so, so glad I stumbled upon your videos while I wasn’t even looking. I’ve subscribed and tune in just as often as I can. You’re inspirational, intelligent, and such a beautiful lady. Thank you so very much for sharing your gifts with others!
I am taking on board what you say! I think as we get older we can easily lose our confidence. We all have our insecurities but you know what doesn't kill you makes you stronger ....and hopefully a wee bit more confident! ❤
We, 40+ ladies, should have life experience that should make us reassured in our personal confidence to be in our power! Everyone wavers at times but know we are sage at this time of our lives. I never felt sexier, more beautiful and smarter than when I arrived at 40. I'm now 55 and have the same feelings about myself now more than ever.
I’ve been a subscriber for a long time and I think this is your best video yet! I do enjoy the makeup & hair styling videos, however, true beauty starts within. I would love to hear more along the lines of growing confidence, positive self-talk, and using scripture to become the women God created us to be in the midst of trials & heartache. Thank you for this encouragement!
Dear Dominigue, Without a doubt, this is your finest video ever. I love your beauty videos. Moving forward, you may reach even greater success as a very influential, personal coach, for your loyal audience. I love make up and hair, but this video went much deeper into the hearts and minds of your audience. Please do more and possibly focus on self confidence as much as beauty. They definitely go hand in hand. But today's video makes me think that you may have a more powerful new direction focused on women's self-esteem and mental health. You are so gifted as a speaker, making every word count that anyone can comprehend and understand. This may just be the perfect time for you to take a leap of faith and gear into a new direction of empowering women's self confidence. Save this video as your first step into a broader audience. You have so much power and empathy. Tony Robbins might have to cry himself to sleep if you do. I think you have a remarkable future. Please chat with your agent to re-brand yourself as a woman who empowers others in a very delicate and relatable way. But, be sure to ask your husband and family if they are OK with you becoming even more famous? God Bless your sweet soul and true beauty. Thank you for this week's video, a true keeper! Merci!
Another stunner of a video. The woman who appears to be the most confident in the world uses steps for us to achieve it, too. I found this video very uplifting.
Thank you Dominique, this was a great and informative video, I enjoyed it a lot.... words I try not to use are I can´t, I´m scared, I think fear plays a big role in how confident you are or not, I know as I have got into my middle years I have grown more self confident because I care less what people think about me, not that I don´t care about people because I do very much, I know I´m a kind loving caring human being who cares about others and I believe that God will always help me in my goals , I feel that if you take care of your self in all aspects of your life your confidence grows because you look better you feel better and so you do better, thank you again very nice video you are truly an inspiration to many of us xx
Dear Dominique, if you will start a class on poise, posture, speaking, elegance, I would sign up immediately. You are the right person to teach ladies how to carry themselves. There are so many coaches on TH-cam but I dont see anyone who comes close to a natural poise and classiness that you possess.
You're amazing as always!!! I am going to promise myself to live your words. I think when your young you do this without thinking about it. As you mature life gets more complex and we get off track. I'm almost 70....need a reboot..Will get back to loving me....so I can love others with more compassion ❤
I just watched this video and so many helpful tips. I am definitely the number 2. I come from amazing parents who always did all they could but I unfortunately have never seen much in myself. Now at 52 when I look in the mirror I see nothing. This is due to years of well convincing myself I am nothing so when I am belittled I think to myself well they confirmed what I have always thought I am nothing. I work very hard to build my kids up everyday. I was told yesterday by my daughters employer I raised an amazing kid who has values and works hard. My sons 7th grade science and English teachers emailed and stated he was an honor to have in their classes I should be proud of how he is. I give all credit to God. Again thank you for this video. Very sorry this was really wordy. God Bless
Dominique, thank you so much for this! It is exactly the boost I needed today & I appreciate it so very much! Thank you for being a shining light in the world
You’re kind, humble and by sharing your generosity of knowledge really helps. Boosting self confidence is one of my weaknesses and just by listening to you motivated me…. Especially the self talk, you said “speak it until you believe it “ thank you, thank you so much. 👍🏻❤️💪🏻😊
I love listening to you. It feels so good knowing all the traits you’ve mentioned being confident and setting your goals. Life is too short and we have to enjoy and keep discovering new things that’s good for us as women. ❤️❤️❤️
Speak to yourself with love and kindness... so true Dominique, I’m 62 years old and I’m just learning to speak and treat my self with love and kindness.
It's never to late 👍
@@downeyjr4423 I was just about to write that exact line😍
@@catcaa9027 I got there before you lol 💞
I am 63 and I am now also beginning to be kinder to myself. I was told all my life and I still am told by my mother that she never loved me. D’s suggestions are exactly on point.
Me too - I’m 62 and just learning as well. I hope we both succeed and flourish ❤️
You're such a warm, welcoming and kind presence in this loud and aggressive world.
Thank you for being you and always making such an effort, to help your fellow human beings.
Hi it's Annie Stuart thank you for this video it is very helpful to have watched on this on topic of confidence. it is something most of us lack and really need to work on constantly.
Thou you have a way of making it all so easy. Possibly as it comes to you more naturally.
Thank you for sharing your heart. You're a true blessing in this crazy world.
Your voice is soothing..I was raised around so much anxiety and noise..your words resonated that I want this calmness and peace
There is nothing in the world like living a calm and peaceful life. ❤️
😔
Your timing, this week, was perfect for me! Boy, did I NEED to hear this!...I was a stay at home mom of 4 children...As I have gotten older, and am at home, most of the time alone, I sometimes let the negative thoughts and feelings about getting older cloud my view. I am married to a wonderful man, who I love dearly, he is also 7 years younger than me and as I have "aged", I found that I was beginning to focus on that age difference more! The other night I had a "meltdown" about it all. My husband is the head of a large Human Resource Mental health Organization and has many employees under him...some of whom are female and younger than me. I am writing all of this just to say, that you are so right, that we NEED to spend time in self, positive talk! I am blessed, because my husband realized my struggle and said the most precious, beautiful words back to me...I think, for women, it is so IMPORTANT to have a safe community of other women, that we can depend on and share with! I just have to reiterate that your Channel, your Forum, is just that!.... A safe place to land!!! Thank You....
Yes choose your safe community carefully. Be aware of toxic friendships.
This is coming to me at the perfect time. Too bad everyone couldn’t see this. I am keeping this one and watching it again. I will make notes and keep it close to me. I am 50 and still need this. Thank you so much for making this video and being so kind with your words and guidance.
Sherri, you're so right. I will be doing the same thing. Take care, have a great weekend.
Love this video…thanks so much.
@@debrakirkley4590 I need them too. I'm 66 and struggle sometimes. We can do this!
My thoughts exactly, I’m watching this at bed time and clicked save to my favorites so that I can take notes tomorrow. I’ve been struggling in this more than usual lately and is causing stress and anxiety in my life.
It took me 35 years to realize that my family's lack of belief in me had nothing to do with my abilities and everything to do with their own self-imposed limitations. They couldn't envision more for themselves so how could they ever envision it for me. They would call me a dreamer and roll their eyes. I was a 6 and that message stuck for a long time, but I eventually followed my dreams and lived according to my own script. Now instead of being angry with them, I can be empathetic.
I was about the same age when I too took the bull by the horns and started exploring ways to better achieve what I wanted and wanted to do.
I wish I could love your comment a thousand times! I grew up like this and was always told not to do something either because it was dangerous or I could fail. It took me years to overcome self doubt and believe in myself and my abilities! Cheers 💕🌺
Couldn’t agree more!
I have always been told that I am great at motivating people. I have to admit that I fall short motivating myself. This video I will watch over & over again. Thanks for the pep talk, I feel like you were speaking directly to me!
As I watched this video I thought to myself, " Dominique is such a beautiful person both inside and out!" I love your inspiring messages to us. It's not often that you get the sense that others really care but you always exude how much you care about others. Love the positivity messages. Keep inspiring and thank you so much for all you do!
I’ve found that negative thoughts like “I can’t do this, or it won’t work” become self fulfilling prophecies! Instead think that you CAN do something and watch what happens, that becomes the self fulfilling prophecy!!!!
Your every words are influential, and your presence is warm and comforting.
I am glad I listened to you and your words; it helped me nurture myself and I have texted to my young daughter…
Dominique, what a well-thought out, well-spoken & valuable video. I needed this so much that I teared up watching. You’re points make such sense. Thank you for being so mindful and self-aware in presenting this content.

I think this has been the best video that I've watched on your channel. (and so timely) I have been a stay at home mom for nearly 30 years. Just this last year, I took a temporary job to get my feet wet. A lot of people that I interacted with at my job somehow felt threatened by me or that I was somehow competition. I didn't in the least feel flattered by this as I'm so new going back into the work force and just trying to feel confident in my own skin and in what I'm doing. I'm not really sure why we do this to each other. It would have been so helpful for people to say, "wow you are really brave trying to do this at this point in your life." I really appreciate your kind words and encouragement that there are a few things I can do to boost how I'm feeling inside. I've always struggled with self confidence. I'm glad there are some nice teachers like you out there.
I love the idea of speaking to yourself with kindness, I’ve just turned 51 and was useless at school and was told age 11 by the Headmaster that due to my grade in Geography I wouldn’t amount to much in fact once he read my appalling grade out to the class, he proclaimed I wouldn’t truly get lost! This affected my confidence in the most awful way, I’ve been a cleaner in people’s homes for 37 years, so that I don’t have to face people that much. I’m not sure I can make a change overnight but this little chat, has acknowledged a topic that is long overdue, thank you for bringing it to the fore.
🤗❤️
Dear Sabina, you have already given your first step towards change!!! Go ahead, everything is possible...you are not alone...
@@karinaviana1012 thank you for sending these sweet and encouraging words.
Sorry that you had to go through that, hopefully you can now realise that you are much more than what somebody says about you, good luck with your journey, its never too late :) x
I know the grades you make in school does not reflect your intelligence . Some of the smartest people I know made bad grades in school . That just wasn’t their thing or that way to learn and I’ve known people that made straight A’s are good at memorization, but can’t use it in real life and appear to be not so smart . So put all that school trauma behind you if you can and be the new you .
Dominique thank you so much, you came to the right time, and God put you here today with powerful words of courage and love. I really need this right now. I being feeling down in this week and all your words got to my heart. God bless you always for caring for others.❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
Love this video. I’m 29 and found this really helpful. You’re very uplifting and informative
Thank you for such beautiful, uplifting and sound advice! At my age, 71, your words have served me as a reminder of values learned during my childhood and youth but because of personal circumstances have lately felt inadequate and terribly vulnerable. Your spiritual insight has been especially inspiring to me. God bless you and yours always! You are a lovely woman but more importantly you are a proof of the power of interior beauty. Please continue to inspire us.
and how beautiful is the space Dominique is talking from, the colours, textures and styling are just gorgeous - just like her.
I was thinking the exact same thing! I think that surrounding yourself with beautiful things and things you love also boosts self-confidence.
I LOVE you! You’re like the sister I never had. You’re the absolute best TH-camr I’ve found who’s also a creative like myself and a Christian. You’re really well-balanced with both the natural and the spiritual and I really appreciate that. I’m so happy I found you. Thank you for sharing from your heart 😘
What really resonated was that self confidence is self trust. Wonderful and helpful coaching. Thank you, Dominique. xo
So glad I watched this video. I actually searched the words and saw familiar face I trust..after what can only be described as a pivotal lifte changing moment in December just gone , I decided I need to focus on my family not my job. 18 years in a job where I wasn’t appreciated and I took a leap of faith, with no self confidence. Got myself a new job , on a path where I want to be, helping people. I will have weekends off and most of all I have done myself proud and took on the advice my mother gave me a thousand times. Wish I had the courage to have done it before she suddenly passed. 2 months ago, but I can’t change that. Just look forward . Thanks again Dominique xx
I have practiced self love and confidence for a long time. I grew up with a controlling mother and it was always about her. When I went on my own I knew I had to work on a lot to let go of her and how I was treated. I am a strong and confident woman because I believe in myself. It made a big difference in my life in so many ways. Thank you for this video and all that you do.
My gosh so great to hear that from such a genuinely elegant and self confident woman! Thank u!!!
Thank you, this content is so valuable. When I was in my psych rotation in my nurses training (in the 70's) I was moved by what I learned about depression. The prescribed treatment was to "do for others", yes your 5th recommendation. I remember being so taken with that, to get out of your own problems, help someone else. ❤
Makes so much sense
One confidence booster I have found, is to keep my word to myself. If I write down To Dos/Goals, etc., I make it my purpose to get those things accomplished. This has fostered a greater sense of trust in myself and my determination. Professionally, I find it very empowering to speak out loud the many ways I am great at my job. It's especially helpful when I am in the car, alone, travelling to work when I am anticipating a meeting, attempting a new task, etc. Having spent countless hours in the preparation phase you mentioned, this practice of speaking out loud has been like icing on the cake. Thanks for opening this very important topic!
As always, so profound, encouraging and uplifting. My "feel good switch" goes off every Thursday when I watch your videos. Thank you isn't enough but it is heartfelt. Hugs and love from Toronto.
This is the refresher course I didn't know I needed, from my wise sister I never had!💕..Thank You Dominique!..This was a priceless gift (for my 60th bday!!!)💖
Dear Dominique, this is exactly what I should do next. Your video reached me just in the right time. I'm 46 and feel something outstanding is about to happen after this prophetic video. One of my thoughts/dreams to get in touch with you despite of millions people have the same in their minds. But somehow I could feel that it will happen because I literally feel this with my body and soul. That's how I can describe this. I got many talents and a special child raising alone. Let God multiply His Glory by using us 🙏
The right words are spoken today from a kind, intelligent and loving woman. Thank you for all you share with all of us.
I am so glad I discovered your channel. This video really resonated with me. One year ago last April , I was done. The pain and hurt overcame me. I almost lost my family my job myself. I was diagnosed with borderline personally disorder. Divine intervention happened somehow I enrolled in intensive outpatient therapy and went hard core DBT or dialectical behavioral therapy.
My life outlook relationships have been transformed
I thought myself how to love myself from the inside out. Just as I love others from the inside out.
It's been a tough lonely and scary journey but I won't quit. Thank you for your words of wisdom and great ideas to help me stay my course. God Bless
The world and the unreal expectations in the media can bring us down, but we’re all smart on this channel and want to be our best! You’re GOOD media! Listening to you is always a confidence booster. I’m not compelled to compare myself with you but go on the journey with you!
This is s very interesting comment! Thank you for sharing. ♡♡♡
I have a lot of respect for you and I agree on many things you speak of. I often wonder if we would be more confident without the push for monetary wealth and physically altering our bodies? If you look at the narrative out there we do not seem like a society that is confident at all. Love your content and have a blessed day!! xoxo
Agree. I finally learned to focus on financial security and physical fitness (although I do love a good visit to the dermatologist's office).
@@renephillips6739 You got the right idea. Financial security builds trust in yourself and the physical fitness also gives you the confidence!! And a little botox here and there and I think you have found the key!!
well the way the political scean is we may" all end up with nothing and be happy:) only GOD knows :) hug connie
Amazing discussion Dominique!! If you get tired of the news biz please use your heartfelt ,caring advice to become a motivational speaker.Young ,as well as mature women need someone like you to share content like this.Thank you so much!!
Oh my this brings back so much to me.. for years I spent living a life that I was put down, abused, I did not have any self confidence.
I left that life moved away and started baby steps on where I wanted to be.. how I can achieve the goals I set... that was ten years ago! I went to college in my late fifties, little by little started gaining self confidence in all aspects of my life! I worked on me! I graduated top of my class! Each step I take I strive to look forward and succeed! It may not happen right away but if you want it you can do it! I left all drama! I live a life of grace with those around me that give me peace. I love helping others and try to do so in some way everyday! After all these years I have found the peace I so needed and I am still working on me but I am truly happy. Thank you for reaching out to those of us that truly needed to hear this! Love you lady and all you represent. Keep up the amazing work you do! ♥️ Kat from New York
Bravo!
Oh, Kathy, I so pray I can get there some day. I am 54 and still struggling and just want peace and confidence and not live for what anyone else thinks or says. I have an audience of ONE, this is GOD only.
Beautiful words.....your life now is what we all strive and yearn for. Peace of mind and body is the biggest achievement and we can all do it by taking little steps every day towards it x
Amen to that!
Thank you for helping a 61 year old be healthy, look my best and take time for me! Your videos are so helpful and I cannot wait for Thursdays. I have a question though would you do a video on vacation makeup? I have a tendency to take EVERYTHING with me which is not practical!! The must haves, the not necessary items I can leave at home, etc.? Thank you!!
One of your best videos yet! It’s good to be reminded that positive affirmations have powerful impact on our self esteem. Thank you.
Dear Dominique,
Your video is just what I needed! I am having a hard time at the moment but your words have done me good and I will take some things to heart and want to put them into practice!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
I had one friend who would sometimes say "I'm so stupid" or other such self put downs. I'd respond to her by saying "don't talk about my friend like that".
That's so beautiful 😍
Wonderful ❤️
I’ve followed you since day one, and I can and have watched you and your channel grow to almost 1.5 million subscribers in only a couple years, well earned Dominique!
Thank you for posting this video. After working from home since March 2020, and now preparing to return to the office, I feel like I'm lacking in self confidence for some reason. I guess after working in yoga pants and not wearing makeup, I feel like I've forgotten how to get myself ready and out the door on a daily basis. Time to start brushing up on self confidence and people skills!
I'm sure a lot of people feel this way
Dominique, I just sent this video to my 19 year old granddaughter. Your advice is timeless. Thank you.
Thank you for this video. It really hit home for me. I am on the cusp of having an empty nest and I have been wondering what my direction will be. I’ve decided that after parenting dependant children for 30 years (14 year age gap between my kids) it will be me that becomes my focus. I am looking forward to spending more one on one time with my husband and to having more time to spend with my sister. I can really see myself becoming a confident, successful, helpful woman.
I love this content Dominique . I find a lot is mind over matter . I had a job where I stood up and talked to large groups of people every week and it didnt mean I was super confident but I remember if I woke up lacking in confidence and not wanting to mix or put myself out there, I used to change my mind set saying to myself today I am going to be fantastic at work and love mixing with everyone and have a great day and it worked !! Also my tip to speak to a large group was to chat as though your having a conversation with a friend and your delivery will be relaxed and chilled , if your uptight it does not flow and people feel uncomfortable xxx
Every word you said hits me right on the nail; I was holding back tears as you spoke. Lacking self confidence is the one thing my husband and I talk about and express how it has hindered our lives and wish we could get a do over for the past 45 years. As much as we have worked to overcome these type of obstacles, it is still a daily challenge because of those negative voices we hear and our childhood. You are so correct in changing the people around you in order to grow and overcome familiar negative thoughts. I taught my daughter from an early age to make friends with people who are more intelligent and had a higher socioeconomic level than herself so she could grow and have more positive and far reaching life experiences, and she did., but all the while being friendly to everyone. Her childhood was the very opposite of mine and my husband's. Our friends and co-workers are such a blessing to us, as they lift us up and we lift them up. Thank you so much for this, there is such kindness and sincerity in your voice.
Dominique you are such a professional in everything you do. I admire your many talents as a journalist, beauty consultant, life coach, mother and daughter. Your message is always well thought out, well organized and delivered impeccably! I look forward every week to your videos. A very sincere thank you for all your dedicated work!
Thanks for this Dominique! we at times forget about our repertoire
I grew up in a very harsh environment but have learned to overcome the negative tape recorder my mother repeatedly instilled in us kids. Her favorite lines were, "you're not worth the salt in your tears" and "you'll never amount to a hill of beans". That's a horrible thing to say to your child...or anyone! I know now, I'm a child of the Most High God and I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! Thank you Dominique for helping so many overcome life's issues and pointing us in the right direction to gain confidence to become who we really are.
I was so amazed by your advice.. I'm loving your pointers and notes on how to change myself and love myself better for the good. Your voice is soothing to a point where it helps me to really think about myself and figure out how I can boost my self esteem or confidence to be a better person.
Thanks, Dominique! 😍Filling our cup through scripture reading and spending time at His feet.
Dominique, this was one of the best videos about building self confidence I've ever seen 👏
I feel much better just by listening to you. As you said: " hearing those words" makes you think and do some changes. Especially when you hear that from someone whom you adore!
Thank you very much for this very informative video!
God bless you Dominique ❤
Thank you for this special video, Dominique. Your voice is so calm and so nice that you could also work as a therapist!!! 🥰🥰🙌🏻🙌🏻😍😍
Best thing in self care is really to talk to God and leave your concerns with him !! Prayers really work 😊
Yes! So true! I just did that this afternoon because I was feeling awful, and down on my life, and it really helps! Thank you 🙏🏼 😊💕
Amen🙏🏻
Absolutely🙏
Agree!
Amen!
Each day for the last 3 days I have been given the message about the power of our words when I was reading something or listening to something. I begin each day with a list of powerful affirmations but I just added some declarations about a specific situation I am facing. I say those whenever the negative thoughts attack and believe in faith for the things I am hoping for. Life and death are in the power of the tongue.
This is why I love watching your channel! You speak truth with wisdom and grace. I think of myself as having self-confidence but listening to your 5 techniques, I am in need of a booster shot! Thank you so much for your channel. I do appreciate you!! Peace and Love ☮❤
I was thinking if you could do a video on what makeup brushes you are using. There are so many out there to choose from with different types for the same application. So maybe a back to basics on what brush to use for what application and why. I know you did a tools tutorial several years ago. Thank you!!
I have to thank you and this community of women. I have asked myself this question in the last few weeks puzzled by why I don't. When you started talking especially giving the definition of self confidence, it hit home. I didn't realize that I don't trust myself in some aspects. Thank you for helping to break this down so I can look at this one piece at a time. I'm keeping this too to watch again. Working through these steps will help me where this may come from and how to change it with a goal. It's calming when you explain in your comforting and gentle way. The thoughts aspire better. Spending time with yourself as you talked about is really key to this too. When you look good, you feel good, and you perform better. This is a lightbulb moment for me. Thank you so much.
Knowing your triggers with tools are important , more importantly for me is my meditation time and time spent prayer. It’s having that moment with God that empowers me daily. Putting on the armor I need for each day.
I’m enjoying your channel more and more. Thanks so much
Wasn’t expecting to cry with this video 🥺
Thank you!
I suffer from depression, specially after hitting menopause and weight gain.😭
In 2020 I also lost both my mom & dad.. Cancer & Heart attack😭
It’s just been a cruel year for me.

Menopause is tough but watch what you eat and get up and go for a walk. We are all here to hold you up! Your amazing and you have got this!! Life is waiting for you 🙌🏻🍑Lisa
Sending positive thoughts and prayers your way 💞
@@dominiquesachsetv 🧡🧡🧡
I to felt depressed with menopause and gained weigh. I just wanted to add that so you know I understand how your feeling. These things have helped me tremendously🍑
You are not alone 😔 ❤️
Thank you for this video! I'm 40+ and feel as if I'm in the process of reinventing myself (careerwise) while nurturing my relationship with my kids & spouse. Because I do not have a 4 yrs degree, my confidence at work can waine a bit. However, I do my best to stay well informed regarding industry news & make it known to everyone my goal is to move up within the company. I fortunate to find many are willing to help. For those who are similar situations, just tell yourself what you would tell a best friend- "DON'T GIVE UP- YOU'VE GOT THIS!"
I understand that some people in your life do bring you down. But hard to let them go. Thank you for your words of wisdom xx
Your point about goals has really struck me. It has been very much on my mine lately, especially after this last year when I feel I have just been spinning my wheels. I will be 73 at the end of the month. Thoughts about what may lay ahead and what do I want for this time have been on my mind. Do I want to set specific goals? How long should the timeline for these goals be? Do I really want to make any major changes in my life at this point. My life is good - Thank God!
I took notes ❤ thank you again
This was a breath of fresh air!! I needed to hear this. Thank you, Dominique! As always you look beautiful. You are such a lovely lady. You inspire us all! Blessings to you and yours. 💖
I have not even watched this yet, but know I am going to just love it. I am one of those people who lacks self confidence. Thank you Dominique!
Dominique, this is my favorite of all. Spoken from the heart, genuine and, your eyes speak the truth. Wow! You are one good soul and sharing these tips, that I can draw and put in a frame, reminded me of what I do for myself, my family and others. All of what I do has given me the chance to live a happy life and to continue my purpose. I am happy and everyone around me is happy even through tough times, not all is dark and looking at things positively even if it is hard has made life so easier (we all have our problems). Thank you for this video and thank God I found you just a couple of months ago. You are a special human being. Bless you xx
Sent this to my daughter who has taken a job from Washington to San Antonio she is excited and a little afraid. Perfect advice❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have been watching your channel for the past year mainly for beauty content which has been wonderful. However, today this video on self confidence was incredibly well thought out and put together. It is my favorite of everything you have done that I had the pleasure of viewing!!! Thank you, Thank you and God Bless!
Thank you for this! I am speaking at my mother’s funeral service tomorrow. My mother was a difficult parent throughout my life but I found a way to gather happy thoughts and share them with those that will be present. It will be a first but I need to get out of my comfort zone and take risks. I know it will be special. ❤️
I LOVE this! Thank you! So many can benefit from this! (speaking as a certified confidence coach). Last year I had a professional CV(resume) prepared for myself for a board position I was applying for. It was so empowering. She interviewed me for 2 hours and put my 30+ years of achievements into a document. I would have never been able to do that myself (maybe in a journal but not for a public document!)
Hey,dominique thank for this video,im so grateful that i find your youtube channal.sometimes we need to hear that you are special and that you need to do something for your self ,i dont think you realize how much you mean to so much woman out there.
You touches my hard😭be blessed🤗🌷
Build self confidence has made me rise again. There is hope for us women who feel derailed. And tired of the world.
You have been my mentor for putting me back on track and putting a spring in my step.
I am so grateful to you for that.
You are amazing at life coaching
Us ladies.
Thank you so much

Self care and communication with God helps me so much..Taking care of myself externally and internally are so important. I appreciate so much that I wake up every morning and can move and do things that to most of us are basics and we don't even think of. Thank you God 🙏
I could listen to you speak for hours. Such a soothing voice and you are also very intelligent and seem very compassionate
Thank You so much for this video, I have been struggling with what to put in my self-care journal/planner. After this video, I am no longer struggling. I stopped your video numerous times to write your suggestions down, then my brain took over and I added more details to your list. Thank you once again for this video, my self-care journal/planner will no longer be bare!
Loved this! Thank you. Point 5 that you talk about - ‘Do for others’ is actually compassion. Compassion is the next step on from showing empathy, compassion is actually empathy plus an action. Showing compassion for others and ourselves releases endorphins that make us feel good which has a lot of benefits.
This video has (once again) come along at the most appropriate time. I am a 57 year old empty nester. I want to become a health coach (helping women through menopause and aging). I know that I need to start a web sight and blogging. This feels very overwhelming to me. I was discussing this with a good friend this morning. She suggested taking 15 minutes a day to write (anything the comes into my head). Also, possibly taking a writing course at the local junior college. Thank you again for this video...You look as gorgeous as ever.
You can do it!!
Thank you so much, your words really touched my heart and I started tearing up when you were talking about the lord. I will start to work on myself more. thank you for your inspiration.
And I love writing positive and I write daily writing prompts about my true self, thank you, Mrs. Sachse
I love that, bad songs no dancing. It really says it all when we somehow only remember the bad things and the good things people say to us fall to the side. Thank you, again for a wonderful video. You're an amazing woman. ♥️
One more thing. : ) I tell my coaching clients, "Whether you think you can or you think you can't --- you're right!"
Exactly!
Thoughts becomes things. What you think as a person makes a blueprint in your brain. So choose for positive words. It really helps to grow (anja from belgium)

That is a Henry Ford quote, and it’s so true.

Excellent. What I like about your channel is you do talks like this with Beauty. I am graduating from college in May. I went back to school after my youngest went off to college. It's been 4 amazing years. What I love at 55 is being a life-long learner. Establishing new friends at my church, having time now for self-care and giving back. Thanks and so glad I found you on TH-cam. My favorite platform
Love this…appreciate all your videos. Your my new life coach so I should say thank you ❤️🙏❤️
I so often read “a reason, a season, a lifetime. It truly puts into perspective when a situation with someone changes and we wonder why. Sometime someone is there for a reason, to help, or a season just to help us when we need it for a season and last of all a lifetime they are there for the long haul. I have turned to this many times when I ask why? If you look it up it will explain it in more detail. Thank you for this empowering talk. 😘
Great advice! I try to be confident 90% of the time, but we all have "those days"! Thank you always for your channel!
You’re amazing! I’m so, so glad I stumbled upon your videos while I wasn’t even looking. I’ve subscribed and tune in just as often as I can. You’re inspirational, intelligent, and such a beautiful lady. Thank you so very much for sharing your gifts with others!
I am taking on board what you say! I think as we get older we can easily lose our confidence. We all have our insecurities but you know what doesn't kill you makes you stronger ....and hopefully a wee bit more confident! ❤
We, 40+ ladies, should have life experience that should make us reassured in our personal confidence to be in our power! Everyone wavers at times but know we are sage at this time of our lives. I never felt sexier, more beautiful and smarter than when I arrived at 40. I'm now 55 and have the same feelings about myself now more than ever.
Every time i try to be a better person hearing this it motivates me .your a wonderful person Dominique.
PEACE within self is exactly what we all need. one of the essential keys
How helpful and impactful - overcoming self-doubt by moving past the past and working on the now and future. Thank you for concrete ways to do that!
I’ve been a subscriber for a long time and I think this is your best video yet! I do enjoy the makeup & hair styling videos, however, true beauty starts within. I would love to hear more along the lines of growing confidence, positive self-talk, and using scripture to become the women God created us to be in the midst of trials & heartache. Thank you for this encouragement!
Dear Dominigue, Without a doubt, this is your finest video ever. I love your beauty videos. Moving forward, you may reach even greater success as a very influential, personal coach, for your loyal audience. I love make up and hair, but this video went much deeper into the hearts and minds of your audience. Please do more and possibly focus on self confidence as much as beauty. They definitely go hand in hand. But today's video makes me think that you may have a more powerful new direction focused on women's self-esteem and mental health. You are so gifted as a speaker, making every word count that anyone can comprehend and understand. This may just be the perfect time for you to take a leap of faith and gear into a new direction of empowering women's self confidence. Save this video as your first step into a broader audience. You have so much power and empathy. Tony Robbins might have to cry himself to sleep if you do. I think you have a remarkable future. Please chat with your agent to re-brand yourself as a woman who empowers others in a very delicate and relatable way. But, be sure to ask your husband and family if they are OK with you becoming even more famous? God Bless your sweet soul and true beauty. Thank you for this week's video, a true keeper! Merci!
Your words resonate Anne and I greatly appreciate what you have to say. I will take it all to heart.. thank you
Another stunner of a video. The woman who appears to be the most confident in the world uses steps for us to achieve it, too. I found this video very uplifting.
Thank you Dominique, this was a great and informative video, I enjoyed it a lot.... words I try not to use are I can´t, I´m scared, I think fear plays a big role in how confident you are or not, I know as I have got into my middle years I have grown more self confident because I care less what people think about me, not that I don´t care about people because I do very much, I know I´m a kind loving caring human being who cares about others and I believe that God will always help me in my goals , I feel that if you take care of your self in all aspects of your life your confidence grows because you look better you feel better and so you do better, thank you again very nice video you are truly an inspiration to many of us xx
Wow, confidence means ‘trust’ it’s so simple, if you ‘trust’ that you can, really believe it, then you can!! I need to remember this. Thank you xx
Dear Dominique, if you will start a class on poise, posture, speaking, elegance, I would sign up immediately. You are the right person to teach ladies how to carry themselves. There are so many coaches on TH-cam but I dont see anyone who comes close to a natural poise and classiness that you possess.
You're amazing as always!!! I am going to promise myself to live your words. I think when your young you do this without thinking about it. As you mature life gets more complex and we get off track. I'm almost 70....need a reboot..Will get back to loving me....so I can love others with more compassion ❤
addressing beauty on the inside - how important and lovely
I just watched this video and so many helpful tips. I am definitely the number 2. I come from amazing parents who always did all they could but I unfortunately have never seen much in myself. Now at 52 when I look in the mirror I see nothing. This is due to years of well convincing myself I am nothing so when I am belittled I think to myself well they confirmed what I have always thought I am nothing. I work very hard to build my kids up everyday. I was told yesterday by my daughters employer I raised an amazing kid who has values and works hard. My sons 7th grade science and English teachers emailed and stated he was an honor to have in their classes I should be proud of how he is. I give all credit to God. Again thank you for this video. Very sorry this was really wordy. God Bless
Dominique, thank you so much for this! It is exactly the boost I needed today & I appreciate it so very much! Thank you for being a shining light in the world
You’re kind, humble and by sharing your generosity of knowledge really helps. Boosting self confidence is one of my weaknesses and just by listening to you motivated me…. Especially the self talk, you said “speak it until you believe it “ thank you, thank you so much. 👍🏻❤️💪🏻😊
I love listening to you. It feels so good knowing all the traits you’ve mentioned being confident and setting your goals. Life is too short and we have to enjoy and keep discovering new things that’s good for us as women. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you and love you, Dominique! You're the big sister and aunt and mom that we all needed when we were 7.
