Move through life finding that quiet confidence, inside and outside. Give attention to where you see fit. And revel in what brings you joy. Our writers want to boost your self-esteem tenfold. So, get to reading the June 2024 edition of Mass Appeal Magazine.  

Confidence Within 

Some may argue home begins in the self. That’s why it’s essential to work on one’s self-worth. Enter: ‘Affirm’ and its contributor Angela Gentile. Build yourself up with words on life’s duality. Respect the “And” of life. Gentile is a speaker, educator, entrepreneur, and coach—she knows her stuff. Let the affirmations sink in.   

Then comes ‘Inside Out,’ which continues the self-love journey. Dr. Alejandro Alva wants us to accept our masculine and feminine sides. Study each energy. Those who embrace their psychological androgyny are often more adaptable and show better mental health outcomes as told by the psychiatrist, Dr. Alva. 

For those trying to find the balance of happy and sad, look to ‘Surrender.’ Chloë Ward provides a healing guide. Ward does not want us to fear sadness as surrendering to it can make it less intimidating. It also can enrich the happier times in life. This is a wonderful read for those looking forward to the film Inside Out 2. 

Stay true to your values, as underlined in June’s ‘Moral Code.’ Otila Elena Sandu Miron takes the reins this month. Miron wants us to find peace in the grey area. It’s the kind of lifestyle change that no matter its big or small, it keeps us on track to our true passions. 

 Confidence To Shine 

Break out those hand weights, dash off on a run and look to June’s ‘Shape.’ Reda Elmardi is a certified strength and conditioning specialist trainer, registered dietician, certified nutritionist ISSA and health expert. Elmardi wants us to start combining weight training with cardio for the ultimate fitness regimen. Find the strength this summer. 

Finally, Timothy Connon offers a personal tale in ‘Bulletproof.’ He shares his experience of celebrating vulnerability in the workplace. A professional life does not need to be hardened all the time. A softer approach can bring you, clients and coworkers, a greater life.
