Exercise Your Girl Power Everyday!


After watching the 67th annual Emmys, I was overwhelmed with the joy of feeling empowered. It was a night for women to shine and break barriers that continuously need to be broken in media, in Hollywood, in music and so many other places. 

As women we are challenged with so many responsibilities that we sometimes lose our way. We lose our way by hiding the authentic person we are by becoming someone only society wants us to be. It is important we do not lose ourselves in the midst of pleasing others. 

We have many hats we wear but we should always take every opportunity to make our voices heard to exercise our girl power everyday. In my 36 years of living on Earth I realize being a girl is not only fabulous but quite powerful yet we never take the time to celebrate our power. So in this post we are giving you tips to exercise your girl power everyday!

Tips To Exercise Your Girl Power

1. Stand Up For Something. If you do not stand up for something you will become a victim and fall for anything. It is important you exercise your voice when you feel that it is necessary to bring a change to the world. Do not be afraid of what others may think of you because your voice matters. Stand up for a cause that is dear to your heart in spite of the minimized applause. 

2. Celebrate Yourself. It is important to celebrate yourself everyday and every chance you get in life. Never wait on others to celebrate you because before anyone can appreciate you; you have to learn to appreciate yourself.

3. Cater To You. As women we can do many things at once but that does not mean we have too. We owe it to ourselves to take time off to reflect, restore & rejuvenate our sanity. So never hesitate to let everyone know you are taking time off from their needs & catering to your needs.

4. Retail Therapy. Never feel guilty for splurging on yourself as long as your bills are paid & some money is stashed away you can indulge in a little retail therapy.

5. Rate Of Return. The greatest investment you can make is in yourself so don't be shy about investing in that trip, spa day or anything else that will nurture your soul. Their is a greater rate of return when you invest in your growth and well-being. Don't  short-change yourself!
