aka: the soft, curious, slightly mysterious main character era
Let’s get one thing clear:
Being that girl doesn’t mean green juice and 6am Pilates.
At least not in my world. Although I love them both.
To me, it’s about becoming the version of yourself that feels good.
The version who’s quietly consistent. A little undone. Mysterious in a “she probably journals in a meadow” kind of way.
The girl who keeps her promises to herself, wears the same vintage jeans three days in a row, and disappears for a weekend to read and reset.
Here’s how I’m doing that girl, my way:
1. Keep promises to yourself (even the small ones)
Forget the pressure to do it all.
Start with: “I’ll go for a walk today.”
Or: “I’ll journal for 5 minutes.”
When you keep those tiny promises, you start to trust yourself again.
And that trust? That’s the magic. That’s growth.
2. Find your easy outfit formula
Life’s too short to hate everything in your closet.
Find 2–3 go-to combos that feel like you.
For me? Vintage mom jeans + tiny top. Big hoodie + slicked bun. Something that says, “I didn’t try, but I look cool anyway.”
Clothes should feel like a mood, not a costume.
3. Stay curious
Curiosity > perfection. Always.
Ask more questions. Read weird books. Make bad art. Watch old movies.
You don’t have to be an expert. You just have to stay open.
That’s what keeps you interesting. That’s what keeps you you.
4. Learn how to say no (nicely, but clearly)
“No” is self-respect in a cute little outfit.
You don’t owe anyone constant access to your energy.
Saying no without over-explaining is a skill, and honestly? A superpower.
You get to protect your peace. That’s part of the glow-up.
5. Take intentional rest
There’s rest… and then there’s intentional rest.
The kind where you unplug without guilt.
Where you take yourself on a solo matcha date, blast a slow playlist, or nap because you’re a human being, not a machine.
The reset isn’t the reward.
It’s part of the process.
