how to STOP caring about what other people think (advice I'd give my younger self)

As a teenager, I loved this online interview series called The Conversation because of this question that was always asked at the end of the interview: If you could go back and tell your 14 year old self anything, what would it be? I recently realized that I am actually old enough to answer this question now, and that's what I do in this video. I discuss learning to embrace embarrassment as a necessary tool for growth, and the disadvantage of inexperience living within your own body and mind as a teen (i.e. why they always tell you that 'it gets better'). Comment below what advice you wish you could give your teenaged self!

I loved this video, very relatable! After watching I think I would tell myself that embarrassment is a ride of passage as well! I’ve definitely missed out on a lot of opportunities that could’ve made great memories because I thought it was “embarrassing” as a teenager. I would also tell myself to enjoy being in the now and to not focus so much on my future. The future will still be here, but the moments I’m living in will not so make the best of it all.
