Fireside Chat with Krista Paul

Be yourself, girl! Love yourself. That's I think the biggest thing. I'm still working on it. And I think everybody does. Things change, but I would say, "Just get out of your shell and do you. Don't worry about what people think because it doesn't matter. We're all made differently and there's a reason. It would be so flipping boring if you were all made the same, because then it would be the same. But we all have different purposes. We all bring something different to the table. So it's just be you and love you."

Ask Questions

At first it might seem scary, but if you are confused or do not understand something, there are most likely a lot of other people who are also confused, even if they pretend they are not. Remember, you are paying to be taught and learn, not just talked at.
