Many women report growing confidence with age, and it’s absolutely normal! This often comes from life experience, a clearer sense of priorities, and learning to care less about external judgments. By your 40s, you’ve likely navigated challenges, built resilience, and discovered what truly matters. It’s a rewarding shift—embrace it! This confidence often helps women pursue new goals, try bold adventures, or finally prioritize themselves. It’s one of the gifts of maturity.
