What happens when you spend your entire life feeling like you're not good enough? Sharon Vedano knows this journey all too well. Growing up under the weight of strict Korean-Filipino parents who prioritized academic excellence above all else, Sharon internalized messages of unworthiness that followed her into adulthood.
When the first boy showed interest in her during college, she clung to the relationship despite red flags, eventually marrying him and spending 17 years in a partnership where she felt consistently undervalued. After divorcing the same man twice, Sharon began her remarkable journey of self-discovery and transformation.
The turning point came when Sharon decided to challenge the limiting beliefs that had controlled her life. Through a practice she calls "notice what you're noticing," she began confronting negative thought patterns—even having full arguments with herself in the aisles of Hobby Lobby to reprogram her relationship with money and self-worth. This inner work transformed every aspect of her life, leading her from a successful career as a defense attorney to becoming a transformational coach dedicated to helping others recognize their inherent value.
Most powerfully, Sharon broke generational patterns by creating an entirely different relationship with her children than she experienced growing up. Instead of judgment and high expectations, she built a foundation of unconditional acceptance that her son recently thanked her for over breakfast: "Mom, I'm so grateful I can talk to you about anything."
Now happily remarried in a relationship she once thought "only existed in Hallmark movies," Sharon helps others recognize that they deserve love, success, and fulfillment. Her story proves that with commitment and the right tools, we can rewrite the narratives that have limited us and step into lives of authentic joy and purpose.
