I received an email today asking me to meet the other “Kat” the “Kat” who….

The one who wakes up every morning feeling like a movie star….

• OK really, how do movie stars wake up feeling?  I’m sure and lets be honest here that there is no one next to their bed with makeup for them to apply and a hairstylist doing their hair and I’m sure their breath is pretty rank just like everyone else….Lets move on.

She hums positive affirmations about herself before she gets out of bed.

• So most weekends I get out of bed after hearing the sound of a little Super Hero wanting out of his bed.  I don’t believe I have the time or effort to think wonderful thoughts about moi.  On week days I spend this little hour of time all for moi.  My “Alone Time” and yes, I will meditate, write good thoughts down, and enjoy a gratitude email list with some other women.  Reality is I don’t have the time to relax in the bed in the AM but I do take care of myself emotionally.  This “Kat” needs to.

She lies there and imagines all the amazing things that will happen to her that day before she lets her feet hit the floor.

• Where is this other “Kat” at.  I’d love to have her free time.  Maybe if I get up at 4:30AM I can squeeze all this in.

She loves her life!

• Hello, person trying to get me to do your program….I do LOVE my life!

She starts her day with a tall glass of fresh water and a brisk jog around the block, or a swim, or some dancing about in her living room.

• Now, this I can work on.  A tall glass of water isn’t the worse way to start the day.  I do however dance often every morning almost with these two little people we’ll call Tween Princess and Super Secret Liam Pants Super Hero.

When she finally comes to get ready for the day she looks in the mirror and thinks:

“Gorgeous!!!”

“You, Kat, are absolutely spectacular!”

“I just loooove everything about you–from your thighs to your lips to your voluptuous hips!”

• Wow, I think they’ve been hearing my husband talk to me every time I get ready.

She loves the way she looks. She loves the way she feels.

• I’m a work in progress.  This is something I try and do more and more.  I’m not perfect, don’t claim to be and I think that this is something most people, women have a hard time with.  I think society implants in us at a young age how to look and feel and to find our real “self” can be hard to accept.  For others it may be easy but with all my “image” issues from the PCOS it makes it hard at times.

Every day she wakes up with a commitment to love herself and treat herself well with fresh food, exercise, positive thinking and self-care.

• I do this!!  Yeah, the last and most important thing on their list I do.

I think this was a great email I received and for someone with less confidence than myself this program may be great but I don’t need someone giving me the affirmations I give myself and though they aren’t as I wake feeling like a movie star I’m good to me every day, take care of myself, and I’m the best “Kat” I can be.  I don’t need to spend money to continue living my awesome life!
