We need to stop shrinking ourselves! Listening to a podcast interview with Brooke Shields and honestly this is so powerful. We should celebrate this 🙌🏽 Such a simple message, but one that takes a lot of us years to learn. Why are we: Apologising for speaking up. Apologising for being successful. Apologising for taking up space. The older I get, the more I realise confidence isn’t about becoming louder. It’s about becoming comfortable with who you are without feeling the need to constantly explain, justify or apologise for it. And honestly?That’s incredibly freeing. Maybe one of the best parts of getting older is caring less about making yourself smaller for other people’s comfort 👀 Follow for more confidence, self-worth, women over 40, healthy ageing & perimenopause content ✨. #WomenOver40 #MidlifeConfidence #HealthyAgeing #femaleempowement #SelfWorth - @beautygal461
