SHIFT YOUR
SELF-TALK
Reimagining what it means to
“be positive” in a complex world
We all do it. Belittling who we are, what we do, what we stand for—often without even realizing it. And it’s stuck on a loop. Yet if shifting our toxic self-talk was as easy as repeating positive mantras, we’d have done it already.
Want Your Self offers a new approach for deep and lasting change: A guidebook to become fluent in an inner language for loving who you are while growing into the person you were meant to become.
Introducing mindset coach, speaker, and founder of WANT: Women Against Negative Talk Katie Horwitch’s first book, WANT YOUR SELF: Shift Your Self Talk and Unearth the Strength In Who You Were All Along.

THE BOOK
HELPING YOU FIND, BE, STAY & WANT YOUR SELF
WANT is a multimedia platform that gives you tips, tools, motivation, and inspiration to shift your negative self-talk patterns to positive + proactive — without ignoring or minimizing the realities of being human. Here, we learn about ourselves individually and collectively, so we can influence our spheres and society in a way that moves us all forward, not back.
MEET KATIE HOrwitch
I’m an author, speaker, coach, consultant, artist, activist, and professional noticer who has been studying self-talk for almost two decades. And the one thing that’s become crystal clear: the way you talk to yourself, about yourself, isn’t just about you. Your self-talk links you to the world around you in ways you might not even realize…or intend.
I believe shifting your self-talk isn’t as simple as “say this not that.” I believe that in order to make shift last, you’ve got to start with the SELF part. I believe the journey of finding, being, staying and wanting your Self should be accessible, inclusive, and make you feel embraced, not alone.
I believe it’s not about stopping your self-talk — it’s about shifting it.
