My 46-year-old self, who just became a licensed esthetician two months ago, would say, "You're never too old to follow your dreams; they will never disappoint." @alayna.aesthetics I would tell my younger self to not fear failure or let the anxiety of what others might think hold me down. I don't regret anything I have done in my life because all experiences become growth and make us who we are. With what I have accomplished, now I know I am enough. I wish I could tell me then . . . you are enough! @the_blushing _ gemini Always, always, always continue your education and be learning! @hydrafacialnorthernrockies Don't give up so quickly. You learn by trying and sometimes you're going to have to try again and again. Stick with it—you'll be glad you did. @skinstudioscv Stop hiding behind the scenes of EVERYTHING! I literally did this with every aspect of my life. I didn't want people to feel like I was conceited. Years later, I realized I was never conceited about anything, I was just really con dent—and I still am! @skinbysharon_ Be bold, be con dent, and stay grounded! @rosepagametimewellness Work hard but make sure you stay grounded within yourself. Bosses, coworkers, clients—they will not know what is true to you or what lights your soul on re. @megan.skincarewellness Stop thinking about it and just do it! I thought about becoming an esthetician for four years before starting school. I have no regrets except waiting so long before taking action. @_aneyeforbeauty Be you. Don't listen to what people say, don't worry what they think, be you. Especially when it's hard to be you, be you. @esthetician_in_isolation Believe in yourself and trust in who you are! The version of you now will pave the way to who you become tomorrow. @nicole_m_esthetician_ Have faith in yourself and your abilities, and keep trusting your instinct. Each step of your journey and all the di erent things you learn along the way will come together like the pieces of a puzzle for a greater purpose that will bring you much joy, passion, and life ful llment. @murtaghlori Don't pick. @skin_bystephanie
