Inner Winner: Finding The Gold That Lies Within, is a story about living in a fear-based consciousness that can be summed up by the statement, not feeling good enough, and lacking the true self-esteem and self-worth that one needs to live a joyful and authentic life. Judy shares her journey about literally, and figuratively, fighting for her life to overcome all her negative self-concepts and self-image. Through a drive and tenacity to understand why life as an adult didn't feel or look how she envisioned it should, she began to look for answers as to why not. To find these answers, she had to look within and there, underneath all the misconceptions and misunderstandings she had about herself and the world, she found Gold. She shares her story to inspire others and bring light to the possibility that the facades, personas, and roles we play of having it all together and all figured out, may be a hindrance to true joy and love. Her desire is to encourage the reader to look within and begin to cultivate the self-awareness which will become their most valuable "partner" in all relationships and expressions of the self.
