Most of my clients are under 40. I'm definitely older. But there are benefits of aging, and sometimes I say to them things I wish were said to me, when I was their age.
In my youth I was so aware of what other people thought or did, and if I fit in and how I fit in, and if they would think I was weird and what it all meant. So easy to overthink, and quite exhausting!
Now, far less pretty but much more assured, I'm just me. I don't care what others think, and if someone has something to say about my behaviour, I listen but don't take it on board if I don't agree. And I can take things on board if I do agree. It's a gift to know that you don't have to know everything; that you can give yourself permission to grow and learn and that you know, deep in your bones, that you are not perfect and that it's okay.
