Living With Hair Loss: The Choices We Make - Taking Back Your Power

This episode focuses on moving forward through hair loss, and what that looked like for me. I know a lot of women are in a place of feeling they will not be able to accept, they will not be able to live with hair loss - but you can, I know you can. I am living proof of that. I share different parts of my story and journey to let you know it took different things along the way to get me to the place I am today.

Believing YOU CAN emotionally get past hair loss is so important. Removing the fixed mentality that things have to be a certain way - that fixed mentality kept me stuck in my own prison for over a decade, till the one day things changed. I changed. My mindset changed. I learned I could be okay even though my hair wasn’t going to come back. I accepted my hair loss, I accepted what is, I accepting wearing wigs. I found a new way to live, and I found it when I was open to it. It was there along, but I wasn’t open to it.

I sat down today to speak to you, to speak to the woman who needs to hear these words from the person who has lived through it, and who knows deeply all the emotions and feelings that hair loss brings with it.

We don’t always feel like we have any choices, but we do. It’s not always the choices we want, but we do get choices. Those choices empower us, and bring us closer to reclaiming ourselves and our power.

When I stopped feeling like everything was happening to me, out of my control, without any say of my own whatsoever, and began to make the choices I needed to, and take action over how I dealt with my hair loss - everything changed.
