Ditch the Doubt, Wear the Crown: Your Self-Love Era Starts Now

We’re officially declaring 2025 as the year of SELF LOVE! Goodbye self-doubt, goodbye overthinking and goodbye feeling sorry for ourselves! We’re simply going to be obsessed with ourselves and our happiness. Listen, it’s easier said than done, we get it. Saying “I love myself” or “I am so proud of myself” is much easier than truly feeling that way from within. Lucky for you, we have a 6-step, foolproof method that guarantees you will feel like the QUEEN (or King) you are.

STEP #1: KICK SELF DOUBT TO THE CURB

Self doubt is like that annoying ex who keeps texting “I miss you” at 2 a.m. — it’s desperate, unnecessary and simply not worth your energy. The next time your inner self-doubt critic tries to crash the party, respond with a mental “new phone, who this?” and move right along. You are talented, capable and worthy — period.

STEP #2: ROMANTICIZE YOURSELF

Start pretending like your life is a movie and you’re the star of the show, because honestly, you are. Play your ultimate hype song as you walk down the street, strut like you’re on a runway. Buy yourself flowers just because you can or go out with your best friends on a Tuesday night because you have free will. Take yourself on solo dates to try a new coffee place or eat a yummy bagel as you stare out the window dramatically as if you’re in a French film. You are the main attraction — start acting like it.

STEP #3: DRESS LIKE THE ROYALTY YOU ARE

You know that one outfit that makes you feel unstoppable and simply amazing every time you put it on? Wear. It. Every. Single. Time. Clothes hold so much power, so dress in a way that makes you radiate energy and confidence for days! We don’t care if it’s an oversized, cozy sweater or a tight sequin dress — throw it on and take over the world. Wear whatever makes you feel iconic, who cares what someone else thinks. Seriously, it ain’t that deep, put on whatever brings you the most joy.

STEP #4: CUT OFF THE ENERGY VAMPIRES

Not everyone deserves a front-row seat to your glow-up and all the amazingness you can possess. Pay attention to how someone makes you feel after you hang out with them. If your energy feels drained or you feel a little sad, it’s time to cut them out of your life. Protect your peace like it’s a limited edition designer bag, because it is, and only a few important people should have access to it.

STEP #5: SPEAK TO YOURSELF LIKE YOU WOULD YOUR BEST FRIEND

Ask yourself this: Would you ever tell your best friend they look terrible, aren’t succeeding or aren’t good enough? No, you absolutely never would. So why say that to yourself? Replace self-doubt and criticism with self-love. Look in the mirror and say to yourself; “Wow! I am so beautiful and amazing.” If that feels weird, doesn’t matter, keep saying it until you believe it.

STEP #6: CHASE JOY AND HAPPINESS LIKE IT’S A FULL TIME JOB

Do more of what makes you feel alive. Things that put the biggest smile on your face, and fill your soul with love and joy. Have a solo dance party in your kitchen at 2 a.m. because you can. Eat the cake (yes, the whole slice, it won’t kill you). Laugh uncontrollably. Travel to places that excite you deeply. Say yes to things that scare you in the best way. Joy and happiness are our birthright. It’s essential to life. Chase it always, and once you feel it, collect as much of it as possible.

Listen, it’s your crown, your rules. Do whatever makes YOU happy. Do whatever makes YOU feel even more in love with yourself. We hope this step-by-step guide will help you begin your self-love journey, to encourage you to be your most authentic self. The version of you that laughs without holding back, dreams without limits, and shines without permission. So, toss the doubt aside, claim your confidence and step into your power like the legend you are. Your self-love era starts now, the question is: are you in?
