To the girl who wrote me an inbox message about how I find my confidence/how to be more “badass”...

It randomly just deleted off my phone! I am SO sorry about that. If you see this, please feel free to write again.

In short, though, I think “finding” confidence has to do with redefining what self confidence is. Confidence, for me, has nothing to do with the “when you look your best you feel your best” mantra, and it has everything to do with building yourself up from the inside.

Are you following your passion? Are you in a place in your life where you’re happy with who you are as a person, and are you also growing? Are you living your life in a way that allows you to cultivate yourself spiritually, emotionally, physically, while pursuing what you love and lifting up others around you? Because once the answer to those becomes a yes, a lot of the negativities, worries, doubts and insecurities tend to fade away and you’re left in your natural “confident” state, and that energy is intoxicating.

Since the question deleted I hope I got to the heart of it.
