(For example, I created \u201cfaceless\u201d content that wasn\u2019t overtly tied to myself).<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the more I showed up for myself, the more confident I became.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started to become more fearless.<\/p>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cFearless is not the absence of fear. Fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<cite>Taylor Swift<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eventually, I started just to let myself\u2026be. And lean into being as ME as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am so proud looking at how far I\u2019ve come!<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, I have numerous YouTube videos on the internet\u2014no makeup, hair wet and frizzy, eczema flares, and all! I\u2019ve even cried on camera without makeup on.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Being fearless was not something that developed overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It took work and YEARS of repeatedly <em>deciding<\/em> that <strong>my happiness was a priority<\/strong> over what other people may or may not think.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wish you the same freedom from external validation, friend.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks for listening to my random thoughts! <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Books<\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before wrapping up, I want to share some of my latest reads and recommendations (all featured in <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2AN58pUlGrM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1642\">the latest vlog<\/a>):<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mybotm.com\/d8db810cd84b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1643\">Book of the Month Membership<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Women-Novel-Kristin-Hannah\/dp\/1250178630?tag=remishimazu-20&#038;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&#038;linkCode=sl1&#038;linkId=01025f5744dcd4b8bf7decfd13405263\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1644\" data-lasso-name=\"The Women: A Novel\" data-lasso-lid=\"6594\">The Women by Kristin Hannah<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Divine-Rivals-Novel-Rebecca-Ross-ebook\/dp\/B09Y468XS6?tag=remishimazu-20&#038;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&#038;linkCode=sl1&#038;linkId=da60ba6594b9a7f9efedd3a069c35154\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1645\" data-lasso-name=\"Divine Rivals: A Novel (Letters of Enchantment Book 1)\" data-lasso-lid=\"6592\">Divine Rivals by Rebecca Ross<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Court-Thorns-Roses-Paperback-books\/dp\/1639730192?tag=remishimazu-20&#038;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&#038;linkCode=sl1&#038;linkId=dbe7e10898cfff59cc581c8ff03ff0a9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1646\" data-lasso-name=\"A Court of Thorns and Roses Paperback Box Set (5 books)\" data-lasso-lid=\"6571\">ACOTAR Series Box Set<\/a> <\/strong>&#8211; It is so much more cost-effective to buy the box set!<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Throne-Glass-Book-ebook\/dp\/B007N6JEII?tag=remishimazu-20&#038;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&#038;s=digital-text&#038;linkCode=sl1&#038;linkId=3eeee0e4f19ba828fefa0065ac96f96c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"1647\" data-lasso-name=\"Throne of Glass\" data-lasso-lid=\"6573\">Throne of Glass (Book #1 in TOG Series)<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; I bought these individually because I wanted paperback; only hardcover box sets were available at the time of purchase<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><sub>This post may contain affiliate links, which means I&#8217;ll receive a commission if you purchase through my link, at no extra cost to you.
