Everyday I find myself reminding women around me to know their value. I also have to remind myself.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I work hard to let my wife know how much I love her. I try to do that every day.
As a modern woman, there are things I take for granted, and that shows up in the way I sit, the way I walk, the way I think, and what I know to be possible.
There's so much to appreciate about my life every single day, and I make a big point of taking time to smell the roses and noticing how lucky I am. I never want to take that for granted.
Women need to learn to value themselves. But that has to be inculcated in men as much as women.
When I see my children, and when I see the people who value me, I know how lucky I am.
It's not a bad idea to occasionally spend a little time thinking about things you take for granted. Plain everyday things.
Sometimes I catch myself if I'm shopping, and I'm like, 'I want to hide my thighs and my arms.' And then I kind of take a minute where I'm like, 'No, that's not really being kind to yourself. Maybe learn to embrace things that we're taught as women not to like.'
I learned from working in the fashion world that if I have a day when I feel slapped in the face, or if someone has been mean, I just have to get back up and it will be another day. I think about what I'm grateful for. I look at my kids and my husband and think, Wow, I'm a really lucky person.
I show women growing, changing, becoming stronger in many kinds of situations.
If there's one thing I've learned about women, which I try to pass on to my boys, it's listening. Listen to the other side of the story first.
