Absolutely.

My biggest self-discovery?

I think my biggest self-discovery would be to be kinder to myself.

I think I am naturally prone to being a bit of a perfectionist or being quite self-critical.

And looking back at my 20s, I can see how...

how much harder I maybe made certain moments of my life when they could have been a little bit easier if I'd just been kinder and softer to myself.

So I'm trying in my 30s to like treat myself more as like my own best friend and yeah, be kinder, which is where the affirmations come in and yeah, be softer and kinder to myself.

I love that.

My hot take is that we all need way less clothes than we currently have.

We need like, I reckon like 70, 60% less.

Call it way back.

You're making your life harder having a wardrobe that's bursting at the seams and too many clothes when you get ready in the morning.

True style and understanding your style is knowing that you don't need more and more and more clothes or more and more accessories.

It's making do with what you have.

The other arm of this hot take is you do not need to buy new things for every event.

I completely agree with that.

And it's good to like, I call it in my friend group, we have like a clothing trust kind of where.

Shop your friend's wardrobe.

Someone will have a wedding and it'll be like, hey, girls, like who's got a dress for me?

And that's a great way to not, you don't have to add to your wardrobe, but you're getting a new cut, silhouette, dress or color or like you're getting something in your wardrobe that feels new without having to overstuff your wardrobe and add to what you've got.
