The amount of criticism I’ve faced in my life is honestly kind of wild. I was bullied as a kid for how I looked, laughed at by friends when I started posting on social media, judged for wanting to build a business, criticized for growing out my gray hair, and even called wrinkly and old by complete strangers. The list goes on. But here’s what I’ve learned: their negative comments are a reflection of them—their own insecurities, fears, and doubts—not me. If I had let their opinions control me, I’d still be living a life for everyone else instead of for myself. So if anyone tries to dim your light, don’t let them. It’s your life, and you get to live it on your terms. Show up how you want, unapologetically. Keep shining. ✨
