A well positioned spontaneous pose - a lucky shot. That’s how I dismissed the compliments I was gifted when I shared this image in my stories.
Almost 5 decades in this body & mostly we are a good team but like every female I’ve ever met, my critique of myself is far harsher than anything I would inflict upon another living being.
I like this snap.
I think peak self-doubt coincides with key rites of passage - puberty, motherhood and now late perimenopausal. And so if history serves me right, I’ll come out of this transitional space with more love & more respect for this beautiful body (and a whole lot of less f**ks!).
I actually think we need to experience all the feelings we do about our bodies but allow ourselves to detach and move through them without creating fixed narratives that anchor us to harm. When we naturally move through our lives we are given the very essence of how to do this.
Living life as it is.
Almost 50 - no piercings, no tattoos, no cosmetic procedures or dental modifications. This is not a critique of others but a declaration of self 🔥
