Hi everyone.

If you were to be your own best friend (which you should be anyway), and you asked yourself for a bit of general life advice ... words of wisdom ... What would you tell yourself?

I look forward to reading what bits of advice everyone else would offer to themselves ❤️

I am going through a lot of relationship turmoil right now and also feel like I'm in the middle of my *I turned 50 this year, existential, who am I, what is my purpose here, etc etc etc.* midlife crisis. So my bit of advice to myself is very colored by my present moment circumstances.

I would tell myself:

Take a step back. Take a deep breath.

You know who you are, you know what you want, you know the things that are most important to yourself.

Be you. Don't ever be afraid to be yourself. Be true to who you are.

Learn from your mistakes, keep putting one foot in front of the other, and always remember that whatever crazy-life-drama-rollercoaster experience you're facing in the moment is not forever. You may not always be in control (like I know you want to be!) but that doesn't mean you're completely helpless.

Take care of yourself, you deserve it.
