Plans and Choices Are Yours to Make

ByShalagh Hogan October 2, 2017July 11, 2024

When I became a new Mom, I perfected part of my system of finding hope by making plans. I would go to the library and collect books on whatever my questioned subject was. And then I would read and read and read. I’d grab some knowledge tidbit from these books and make a plan to…

Reading Restraints

Self-Efficacy

ByShalagh Hogan June 27, 2014March 12, 2021

I’ve been traveling a long bumpy road. Struggling to become a person who can stand up for myself. To become myself. I thought my low self-esteem was to blame for how the steep the climb felt that I’ve been attempting. I worked and worked and felt like I wasn’t gaining a lot of ground to…
