The Bombshell Factor™

Hello Bombshells! We are SO happy you are here! Thank you for joining us!!
Being a Bombshell is all about showing up in the world as your most magnificent self. So many women struggle to figure out what that means and we are here to help! It’s all about YOU here girlfriend!! It is way more fun to live (and give) from an overflowing bucket of Bombshell fabulosity! So prop your feet up, relax, and let’s talk about being irresistible.
So my theme for the month is “Your Irresistibility Factor™”. I love that don’t you? Part of being a Bombshell is having that je ne sais quoi (French for “that certain something”) that you can’t quite put your finger on…and part of that is feeling and being irresistible. It may mean one thing to one person and an entirely different thing to another. Is part of being irresistible possessing extreme beauty? Or perhaps perfect measurements? I had an idea to send out a quick twitter DM to see what other people thought was irresistible. What fun! I sent out a quick questionnaire to 23 people and 19 quickly responded~ and my findings were very interesting! Out of ALL the responses, beauty or perfection was NOT the top factor in what this random group of 11 guys and 8 Bombshells found irresistible.
Hold on to your gorgeous handbag my darlings…what this random group found to be the number one quality of being irresistible was CONFIDENCE. Yes, confidence. Not extreme beauty, or a perfect bod. It is feeling good about who you are enough to be present in your skin. Bombshell, that’s YOU!! Uh-oh. You aren’t feeling it? We gotta talk girlfriend. Right now. Just breathe.
So that confidence thing is not something you are feeling today? Well I have good news and I have good news about that! Confidence is not about a feeling. What?? Not a feeling?? Of course it is. Well my dear, we aren’t talking about the “I feel confident because I feel skinny today” kind of confidence here. We are talking about something much deeper and more meaningful.
I am talking about the “I LOVE ME” confidence that comes from within. The confidence that gives you the courage to call a girlfriend that recently got a scary diagnosis from the doctor even though you don’t know what to say. The confidence that comes from being authentic with your girlfriends about how everything is not so perfect but it is going to be okay because in time it always is okay. The confidence that no matter what comes your way, your inner joy is not affected. Isn’t that the confidence we all want? It is a much more powerful confidence than the passing confidence of feeling good on a skinny day (or at least an “I don’t feel too fat” day). That kind of confidence is fun and it makes you all the more Bombshell, but if all the confidence you have is about how you look and how you feel about how you look, you are missing out on a key component of Bombshell fabulosity!
So your assignment, if you dare to accept, is this:
1. Breathe. Deeply in, and deeply out.
2. Say thank you. Lots of times, every day. Out loud, to God, to yourself, everywhere you go. Be in a continuous state of gratitude at all times. Even when something happens that is dreadful or scary or maddening….just out loud with your hand on your heart say “thank you”. Try it~you will see for yourself that being in that state brings peace and a comforting confidence that you will make it.
3. Practice extraordinary compassion. Especially with yourself. You, and I , and everyone else on the planet is doing the best they can with what they know TODAY. No more putting yourself or other women down. Nope. Not even then.
Bombshell, there is nothing wrong with looking good and feeling good about looking good! Many lives are transformed when a woman changes her appearance and I love that part of my Bombshell program. BUT… do you want to be the Bombshell that walks around saying to everyone “I look good so look at me!” without the deeper inner confidence that brings meaningful connection, or do you want to be the Bombshell that has learned the outer tools about looking great and the inner confidence as well, and ALSO looks great, but instead says “You look great and I am SO happy you are here with me!!”
My next post will include some amazing Bombshell tips about how to exude confidence in your outer image. I can’t wait to hear your feedback!
