that's awesome. i feel like saying congratulations. ;)

i can totally relate too. i don't think i became afraid in my 30s - or maybe i did in a way - but i've come to realize recently that i've lost my confidence. i know when i last had it, and i know how i lost it, and am a bit angry that one person was able to affect me in such a way, but have little idea as to how to get it back. (now there's a run-on sentence if i've ever seen one!) other than take control of it, i guess. what i mean is, i believe that expectations really impact perception/reality and if i simply start expecting myself to be confident and visualize myself as confident and essentially walk the walk, that it will come back to me.

aside from that complete ramble - i used to call myself a yippie (a hippie and a yuppie). i'm a hippie at heart - at my core - but i also enjoy drinking wine, being clean shaven, and wearing a bit of makeup....
