Why do women want to turn heads after 50?
Okay, so I love this first question. Thank you, Kelly, for this. If you've been listening to this podcast or watching on YouTube, you may remember the episode that I did called How I Turn Heads Over 50. And oh my gosh, did it get you guys talking, like seriously. It sparked so much interesting conversation. I was really glued to the comments for so many days. And most of the comments were all about how you were feeling about your appearance and yourself and aging. If you haven't already watched or listened, I highly recommend that you do. So I will put the link to that show in the show notes. I picked this question because so many of you had a similar reaction to the show or some version of it. So here's the question from Kelly.
Is turning heads about male attention?
She says, I listened to your episode about turning heads at 50, and I don't understand why you feel like you need or want to have attention, especially from men. I don't get it. And so here's what I have to say about that. I think it is really interesting that so many women automatically assumed insinuated male attention here. that turning heads as a woman is about men. It says a lot about our conditioning, doesn't it? If you go back and listen, you will not hear me say anything about male attention. In fact, I make the point that turning heads isn't about needing or seeking attention from anyone. That turning heads when you walk into a room is more about our own internal sense of self. That rather than shrink or feel insignificant or small as we age, that we claim our power because aging is the opposite of fading away, if you believe that to be true. I personally feel more powerful, more confident, and sexier than I ever have because my relationship with me is the best it's ever been. I take better care of myself in all ways, mentally and physically.
So my inner world is a kinder, gentler, more forgiving place to be. I have less self-doubt. I don't second guess myself. And instead, I just have more certainty. And I make sure to prioritize my physical health, meaning it's not an afterthought or if I have time. It comes first for me. I always make time for the things that enhance my life. I don't skimp out on myself and take crumbs in my life.
How can self-care and confidence evolve with age?
Mom doesn't come last. That is something that women do. We do it to ourselves and that just has to stop. Not just when our kids are older or out of the house, but always. So how I feel about myself is an energy and a vibe. So when I walk into a room, I do so knowing that I'm important, I'm valuable, I have a certain presence, and that anyone here is going to benefit just from me being there, whether they realize it or not. And then it's not about them. It's actually about me. It's a mindset that I carry with me. We never fade away or become invisible so long as we know that we matter and deserve to be seen and heard, even more so as we age, not less so. I do have another episode about this coming up soon, going more in depth about our conditioning as girls. and how to defy all those expectations. So make sure that you subscribe so you don't miss that when it comes out. This next question comes from Becky.
Where should you start when feeling overwhelmed by personal growth?
She says, I'm listening to your show and I love what I'm hearing, but sometimes I just get overwhelmed and feel like there is so much to work on to up-level my life. I just don't know where to start. Can you please just tell me one first thing? Okay, so I know that each episode is full of try this or try that, a new mindset or a new habit or a new workout.
