128 - The Confidence Mask (You Are Your OWN Trophy!)

Hello, Queens! Get ready for us to drop some real “Dingers,” or words of wisdom from Mama Ximena. We talk about confidence, how we talk about our bodies, and how we perceive our own worth. We’re taking the Cher approach, where a man is not a necessity, but a man is a luxury.

 

We also talk about the sales bros culture of Utah. Shockingly, Alexis is NOT a Sales Bro, but she is learning a lot and enjoying her new job. We talk about masks and costumes, and how they affect children (and adults, tbh) and their actions. Costumes and masks give us permission to step into who we want to be. 

 

Let your light shine, and step into being truly yourself. If you need a mask to help you take those steps, then use it! 

 

Here’s another reminder that Alexis and Mary are going to see Melissa Leilani Larson’s adaptation of Pride and Prejudice at SLCC’s Grand Theater on Friday May 17, 2024; if you’d like to join us for this performance, please get your tickets here! Alexis will also be speaking at Light Switch Stories in Logan, Utah on Friday May 10, 2024. Please come say hi!
