Self-Advocacy

Buy Rock Your Girl Power Merch Stop Talking Welcome to Girl Power… I’m your host Keci Moniquè Authoress | Speaker | Coach to Women | Mentor | Entrepreneur Be sure to connect with me on Instagram | Facebook | TikTok | LinkedIn | Twitter | Tumblr This is probably something that many consider a sign of weakness. Well, in this case, knowing when to stop talking is a form of self-confidence. It makes others know that Silence is Golden. It makes them uneasy because they don’t know your next move. They don’t know how you will perceive anything around you. Move in Silence so that the mature side of you will show its beauty. It is a sign that you are grounded with your principles, standards, and values and do not allow others to define who you are. You know what your true identity is and you do not need to prove yourself to others and beg for validation. Rather than wasting your time and energy trying to engage with people who are clearly stubborn with their own opinion, the biggest favor you can do for yourself is simply walk away. This is a move that only truly confident people do because they know what is important to them, what they want, and treasure their time. With unshakeable confidence, you realize that your time is far too precious to waste on people who have no respect for themselves and others. If they cannot respect the people around them, then you know that they are not the kind of people you want to waste your time on. Have Clarity On Your Response & Understand The ‘Truth’ I'm co-host, Curtiesha Holmes Owner of Queen Diva Boutique Connect with me on Facebook | Instagram | TikTok One thing that you have to note here is that how you respond is derived from your own filter, experience and understand the fact that the others have the right to hold a different opinion. If you take the time to understand that truth, you will know that you can’t always change others but only change how you see things from within. Just accepting that will set you free from always feeling intimidated by other people’s behavior. Nevertheless, the point is not about being desperate for someone else’s approval. It is about you ensuring that before you can confront anyone, you clearly know what values you stand for and that your integrity is the backbone of who you truly are.
