In this episode of Building A Badass, I talk about having confidence in your own work and knowledge, and what you can give the world by being who you are. I tell you how I unexpectedly became a writer through living my passion and being curious about the world.   Through passion I was able to explore what good nutrition looked like, and figure out what works for me. Using those tools, I just kept growing my confidence stronger and stronger, which eventually led me to end up in a National Best Seller list.   Stay Relentless, - Christmas Abbott ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Show notes: http://www.shruggedcollective.com/bab_nascar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------Please Support Our Sponsor @vuori- www.vuoriclothing.com - Use coupon code BADASS25   ► Subscribe to Shrugged Collective's Channel Here http://bit.ly/BarbellShruggedSubscribe ? ?
