“I would tell her to be kinder to herself, to treat herself the way she treats her friends. I would tell her everyone feels nervous in new situations and sometimes you just have to fake it ‘til you make it,” Crawfordwrote. “I would tell her not to be afraid to make a fool of herself — dance, sing, etc more — even if she isn’t good at it.”
“Laugh as much as possible. Be vulnerable. Risk showing her true self to people she loves — the payoff is worth it,” she continued. “Practice gratitude. Keep growing and learning and becoming…life is a blessing! 💜.”
Crawford opened up aboutthe “privilege” of aginglast June and said, “If we’re lucky we get to age. That is a privilege. But it’s also very daunting for women [to think], ‘Okay, what’s going to happen?’ "
The Meaningful Beauty cofounder continued, “With skin care, my approach has been ‘age-maintenance’. Gravity’s still out there and things are going to happen, but let me take as good care of my skin as I can. And I just want women to know that it’s okay, with the skin care and now with the hair care, to give yourself this little gift [of self-care] for five minutes in the morning or five minutes in the evening.”
She added that the earlier days of the COVID-19 pandemic helped her learn how to relax.
“One of the big benefits for me was just slowing down and realizing I’m okay,” she said at the time. “I feel like I’ve been so busy for the last 30 years that I thought, ‘Oh my God, what am I going to do with myself?’ [Now] If I retire – not that I’m planning on it – but it doesn’t scare me anymore. I know I am okay with a less full schedule and that’s liberating to know that.”
