Had a message recently from a woman who asked me how she could feel like the “It Girl” walking into a room — the one everyone wants to know & be around.
Some deep sh*t, right?! I’m thinkin now what kind of baggage do we have to unpack for this one?
cause we all have our bags.
I brainstormed.
I feel it comes down to charisma & mindset. As you sharpen your ability to be more charismatic & growth minded, you open up a plethora of doors.
The work is dirty. It may hurt. It may make your eyes well up. That inner work is absolutely necessary more times than not to find your sparkle.
A lil bit about my story struggling with a growth mindset…
This child was called fat. This child was called ugly. This child felt she would never be the girl that sparkled when she entered a room.
This child was me.
I was told to lose weight & tried to diet before I was 10. My self-esteem & body issues started at 8.
I hated my body. I had gut issues.
I was told on numerous accounts, “If you just lost weight, you would be as pretty as all the other girls in school.”
Stung every time. Stung with shame.
This translated into: You’re not special. You won’t be successful &/or loved unless you’re thin & look the part.
It’s taken me 40 years to become the happy, charismatic, & proud woman writing these words today.
I hope you enjoy these golden nuggets I’ve learned along my journey about finding your sparkle & becoming a human worth knowing that commands a room.
