Do you guys remember the Morning Sunshine Challenge? To celebrate the release of Robin's book, "Morning Sunshine: How to Radiate Confidence and Feel it Too," we hosted a contest asking people to share their confidence-building tips.

Well, the winner, Lindsay S, will be on the set today! Check out her live interview with Robin at 9.30 am. She's absolutely adorable, you wont want to miss it!

We kicked off the challenge with Robin asking viewers "What is the biggest obstacle you have faced (or overcome) on your road to self confidence?"

iReporter Lindsay Sprick touched our heart with her answer.

Lindsay says that she grew up fast when she was diagnosed with an auto-immune skin disease at age 11 that left 80% of her skin looking dry and cracked like a desert.

She faced a lot of ridicule from her school classmates, but says that she learned to smile in the face of pain, and to keep up her confidence.

Lindsay said, "You can’t let people make you feel bad for things you can’t control. Be proud of who you are and who you want to be! Love yourself and you’ll see that happiness is just around the corner."

Thanks again, Lindsay!
