This resonates so deeply. Envy from women, especially those you consider friends, is the worst.

At the ripe age of 22, I decided to stop hiding and step out of my shell. Only to see a very dark and evil side of humanity, that forced me back into my shell haha.. now I am crawling out again but very cautiously

Loved reading this, Monica. So many bits resonated with me, especially when you talk about how you feel more confident now to be seen and take up space. It's interesting that many women I know have experienced a surge of confidence as they reach their 40s and feel more secure in who they are and what they want. Definitely a perfect time to flourish it seems. Well done for you for getting there and creating your own path in life.
