So when I look at my kids, so I created, I call it the real method.

It's really for women, but parts of it I use with my kids because they're human and they

They need to understand how to build confidence, how to build that self-esteem.

Confidence is a skill and you build it from the inside out.

It's not something that everybody else has and you don't.

So in my method, the first step, well, so it's real.

Respect yourself, embrace your failures, ask yourself what you want and live without limits.

And the first step is respect yourself because for me as a child, I was taught to respect my elders, my peers, you know, everything that goes within those categories.

But never once do I remember being taught that the most important person to respect was myself.

And I think that's so important for kids today to understand what self-respect really means, that setting boundaries, saying no to things that are not appropriate, and really understanding that the things that they see out there

Are they being disrespectful to someone else?

Probably.

And I think that for my kids has really helped.

Yeah, you record everything and you put it out there.

And it's honestly kind of, well, it's sad and scary at the same time of the behaviors that we see now.

And I agree 100%.

The fact that on airplanes now, they have to have like a sign saying something about like, if you hurt a flight attendant, then you'll be arrested.

I'm like...

Why do we have to say these things?

Because people are doing these things.
