In Single Wide Female Bucket List #18, character Samantha Bradford publishes a book. Becoming Zara is that book. Click here to order.
Hi, I’m Zara…warrior princess. I don’t usually tell that last bit to strangers, but I say it in my head all the time. It’s one of the many mantras that have helped me to get to where I am today. And believe me when I say that I’ve come a long way.
Besides, if you’re a woman and you happen to have ever struggled with issues of self-esteem, we’re probably gonna be fast friends anyway, so I won’t hold anything (much) back.
Oh, and Zara wasn’t the name I was born with—but you’ll find out more about that in the book…
And then Samantha goes on to write…
Hi, I’m Nicole. I met Zara—she’s my life coach—a few months ago when I became one of the first members of the B.I.G. Girls Club. I hadn’t even realized the bad space I was in until she showed me that there was another way to be living my life now—regardless of what the numbers on the scale tell me.
And isn’t it crazy how much those numbers can effect our mood?
Now, I’m fully onboard and determined to change my life, regardless of what Joe—he’s my boyfriend—says. He’ll either support the changes I’m making…or not. Zara’s promised to help me through that regardless of the outcome. (Okay, so I’ll admit…the idea of losing Joe terrifies me more than a little, but I’ve got to be honest with myself.)
For now, I’m committed to being better and stronger every day—like all the members of the B.I.G Girls Club, I’m committed to being Bold, Inspired and Genuine with myself and with you.
And for what I’m about to attempt, I can use more cheerleaders around me.
Us girls need to stick together!
