Card: Practice Confidence

Landscape: Self/Immediate Environment

Title of Painting: Nobody’s Girl

Interpretation: You know more than you think you know. While your readiness may not feel like confidence, this is the moment to pump up the balloon of your belief, hang on with conviction, and allow your feet to leave the ground. Practice your presentation before you head into the meeting. Practice with the mic before you invite your audience. Practice in front of your mirror, or your cat, or your two year old before you make the phone call. It will settle your nerves and give you the inner juice to make your move. Remember what Oprah says, “…you are the dream.” So let’s do this!

Deeper Resonance: The title of this piece is taken from Bonnie Raitt’s song, “Nobody’s Girl”. The figure depicted here is in a state of well-earned freedom and flight. Chest open. Arms wide. Chin up.
