Smart Women Follow These Seven Rules
Hello Everyone!
It’s so good to be here today, sharing space and energy with you all. Let me tell you something: life is too short, too precious, and too full of potential for us to live on autopilot. Every smart, driven, and powerful woman I know lives by a set of principles—rules, if you will—that guide her journey. Today, I’m here to share seven of those rules with you. These aren’t just guidelines or truths—they’re the keys to unlocking your best self, stepping into your greatness, and living the life you deserve.
1. Own Your Power
Let me tell you something: there’s a moment in every woman’s life when she has to look in the mirror and decide, Am I going to live small, or am I going to claim everything that’s meant for me? Owning your power starts right there in that moment.
-
You Are Enough
Stop waiting for permission. Stop doubting yourself. Let me say it again for those in the back: You are enough. -
Stop Apologizing for Your Greatness
Why do we shrink ourselves to make others comfortable? From this day forward, stop saying, I’m sorry when you’ve done nothing wrong. -
Your Voice Has Power
Speak your truth. Advocate for yourself. Use your voice to change not only your life but the lives of those around you. -
Own Your Choices
Take responsibility for your life. You may not control everything, but you always control how you respond. -
Step into Your Space
When you walk into a room, own it. Confidence isn’t arrogance—it’s self-assurance that you belong.
2. Prioritize Your Peace
When was the last time you felt truly, deeply, soulfully at peace?
-
Peace is Power
Protecting your peace is not selfish. It’s courageous. -
Boundaries Are Your Best Friend
Set boundaries unapologetically. Protect your time, energy, and well-being. -
Let Go of What Doesn’t Serve You
Release toxic relationships, resentments, and unrealistic expectations. -
Peace is a Daily Practice
Choose peace every day. Take moments to breathe, reflect, and say no when necessary.
3. Keep Learning
You are never finished. The moment you stop learning is the moment you stop growing.
-
Stay Curious About Life
Ask questions. Wonder. Explore. -
Learn from Every Experience
Even failures and heartbreaks are lessons that shape you. -
Surround Yourself with Teachers
Teachers are everywhere—in people, books, and experiences. -
Knowledge is Freedom
The more you know, the more empowered you are. -
Embrace Change
Learning pushes you to grow and become more aligned with your true self.
4. Lift as You Climb
True success isn’t just about what you achieve; it’s about what you give back.
-
There’s Room for Everyone
Celebrate others’ successes, and build bigger tables if there aren’t enough seats. -
Be a Mentor
Support and guide those who are just starting their journeys. -
Celebrate Each Other’s Wins
Genuinely cheer for the successes of other women. -
Be a Bridge Builder
Create opportunities for others to shine. -
Strength in Numbers
Together, we are stronger. Lift as you climb to create a legacy.
5. Embrace Failure
Failure isn’t the end—it’s the beginning of your breakthrough.
-
Failure is a Teacher
Every mistake holds a lesson. Learn from it and grow. -
Redefine Failure
Failure is proof that you tried, that you were bold enough to step out of your comfort zone. -
Fail Forward
Use failures to propel yourself closer to your purpose. -
Let Go of Perfectionism
Progress matters more than perfection. -
Failure Builds Resilience
Every fall strengthens you.
6. Trust Your Gut
Your intuition is your greatest compass.
-
Stop Doubting Yourself
Trust the quiet voice inside you—it knows more than you realize. -
Intuition is Wisdom in Disguise
It’s the accumulation of your experiences, guiding you toward what’s right. -
The World Will Try to Drown It Out
Block out the noise and listen to your inner wisdom. -
Stillness is Key
Create moments of quiet to hear your intuition clearly. -
Learn to Differentiate Fear from Intuition
Fear is loud and chaotic; intuition is calm and steady.
7. Celebrate Yourself
When was the last time you celebrated you?
-
Stop Waiting for Permission
You don’t need anyone’s approval to honor yourself. -
Recognize Your Wins, Big and Small
Every step forward, no matter how small, is worth celebrating. -
Celebrate the Woman You’ve Become
Reflect on how far you’ve come and honor your journey. -
Create Your Own Celebration Rituals
Light a candle, dance, or treat yourself—whatever feels right. -
Don’t Downplay Your Greatness
Shine unapologetically. -
Celebrate the Process, Not Just the Outcome
Enjoy the journey and honor every part of it.
