About the Book

The Confidence to Become an Accidental Athlete

Highlighting:

  • Self-Esteem
  • Individual Sports
  • Running and Jogging
  • Sports and Outdoors
  • Self-Help
  • Confidence
  • Womens Empowerment>

Confidence - The Accidental Athlete: How Running Changed My Life tracks the chronology of events and activities in my life that enabled me to have the confidence to try and the self-esteem to call myself a runner.

It describes someone who started out with no intention of being an athlete, with absolutely no awareness that she had athletic talent. It finishes with a call to action to each woman out there that may not have discovered who she is as an athlete and what talent and ability lies within.

Please join me in this book of discovery. My purpose is to inspire other women, of all different abilities, to be confident, and willing to uncover Accidental Athletes at any age or stage in life.

This book was written to help you discover your own Athlete Within. I encourage you to read on about this empowered athlete and how my life was changed forever because of learning and growing through challenge, activity, and specifically, running.

While running was the glue that connected the pieces throughout my adult life, it is the story of discovery that I truly want to share. It is the fact that I learned to understand my inner strength and overcome inner fears that allowed me to grow as a woman and a human being.

I emphasize growth and discovery as something that each of us seeks and some of us are lucky enough to find.

The title of this book describes a priceless gift of self-confidence and athleticism presented to me, through luck, fate, and some of my own effort. Fortunately, I grew to recognize the value in the tangible and intangible aspects of my life when I accidentally discovered that I was an athlete.

I want that same self-discovery and empowered opportunity for you.
