With Katie's help and guidance, deep-down inner confidence is within everyone's reach.
Confident Beauty: Reflecting the One Who Made You, with the Images in your Mirror and in your Soul (Morgan James Faith)
by Catrina WelchConfident Beauty is not another message meant to convict the Christian woman into squelching her desire to be attractive, instead its insights will compel you to reflect the image of God with beauty and confidence. Image- and Life- Coach, Catrina Welch, shares far more than “what not to wear;” she addresses confidence conflicts and reveals the image identities (Img.IDs) of various women in the Bible such as Eve, Mary and the woman at the well, and guides you through a self-assessment to discover your personal Img.ID. Understanding the various styles of femininity and how they each reflect the glory of God in their own way releases women from the trap of comparison and the shame of vanity. You can have confidence that is sincere and lasting when your beauty is balanced with faith and fashion.

Confidently You
by Joyce MeyerLive boldly in the love of Christ with Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer. What keeps women from feeling and being their best? For years, Joyce has been helping women better identify emotional barriers and physical, mental, and spiritual obstacles in their lives. Now she provides another answer: Confidence.Our society has an insecurity epidemic. Women in particular compensate by pretending to be secure--a common response--which only leads to feelings of shame. Lack of self-confidence causes great difficulty in relationships of all kinds, and can even lead to divorce.In Confidently You, Joyce explores the characteristics of a woman with confidence, which include a woman who knows she is loved, who refuses to live in fear, and who does not live by comparisons. Joyce explains that confidence stems from being positive in your actions and living honestly, but most importantly from having faith in God and in ourselves. Derived from material previously published in The Confident Woman.

Conflict Resilience: Negotiating Disagreement Without Giving Up or Giving In
by Robert Bordone Joel Salinas M.D.Two former Harvard faculty—one an internationally-recognized negotiator and conflict management expert from Harvard Law, the other a leading behavioral neurologist and cutting-edge scientist from Harvard Med—join forces to introduce conflict resilience: the radical act of sitting in and growing from conflict to break the bad habits that sabotage our politics, workplaces, and most important relationships. Conflict is getting the better of us.From our homes and community centers to C-Suites and Congress, disagreements are happening everywhere, with increasing frequency, and are being treated like zero-sum games that allow little margin for error and even less room for productive conversations. This puts a tremendous and untenable strain on our most important relationships and institutions.Unable or unwilling to negotiate conflict with skill, we ignore it or avoid it for as long as possible; when we are forced to face it, we escalate everyday disagreements and temporary flare-ups as if they’re life-and-death. Neither approach addresses underlying issues, promotes stronger relationships, or yields satisfying results.But there is a solution: a combined skillset and mindset that Bob Bordone calls “conflict resilience”—the ability to sit genuinely with and grow from disagreement. In this powerful, hopeful book, he and renowned neurologist Joel Salinas, MD, combine the inner mechanics of conflict—literally what’s going on in our bodies and our brains during moments of distress—with a groundbreaking three-step framework for how to navigate it:NAME (& dig deep)EXPLORE (& be brave)COMMIT (& own the conflict)In a time of increasing polarization, where consensus, agreement, and problem-solving can sometimes feel elusive, Conflict Resilience provides practical solutions to a common dilemma: How do you handle disagreements and differences with integrity while finding a way to create strong, deep, and lasting relationships?Conflict Resilience is not another book about conflict resolution, nor is it about problem solving. Conflict Resilience combines practical applications of advanced conflict management and study of the human brain to teach anyone how to turn conflict and negotiation into an act of union. This book provides the most cutting-edge and scientifically-grounded tools for driving agreement when possible and for empowering you to disagree better when the differences cut deep and the relationships matter most. This is a chance to bring people together, and an invitation to radically transform how we interact with our friends and families, our co-workers, our students, and our neighbors—anyone with whom we find ourselves in disagreement.

Conforme al corazón de Dios
by Fernando Baeza C.¡70 características para un liderazgo eficaz, imprescindibles en el fundamento espiritual de un líder que desea impactar a su generación! <P><P>¿Qué hizo de David un hombre conforme al corazón de Dios? <P>He aquí solo un pequeño aporte, aunque no la palabra final, para descubrir algunas características fascinantes sobre la vida de uno de los hombres más extraordinarios de la historia bíblica. <P><P>Guerrero, creativo, contradictorio, en ocasiones arrastrado hasta el borde del abismo de la tragedia y la desgracia por sus decisiones impetuosas y pasionales. Pero humano, lleno de fe, con una confianza absoluta que raya casi en lo infantil y un profundo amor por Dios y Su honor. <P>Deseoso de que Su Nombre fuera conocido de costa a costa y hasta los confines de la Tierra. Hoy en día la sociedad está más preocupada por las estructuras que deben conformar su accionar de cara al exterior, que por cambiar las estructuras internas del espíritu yde su liderazgo. Es aquí donde se está fallando. En David, encontramos la conjunción de todas ellas: carácter, comprensión, liderazgo y misericordia, en un hombre humilde lleno del Espíritu de Dios. Y la vida de David también es un ejemplo para el tiempo actual, donde predomina un espíritu religioso pusilánime y posmodernista.
