COMMUNITY For young women who deal with self-confidence and self-esteem issues and have a hard time standing out in the crowd and being bold, what words do you have for them? Trinitee: I would tell them that you must believe in yourself, you must believe in yourself before others will believe in you, you must love yourself before others will love you, you have to remain confident in who you are. Look in the mirror and love who you see. I share in my book Bold and Blessed about how important and impactful that has been in my life and I think that’s where faith comes in as well. There have been plenty of times where I’ve had bad days, and I didn’t feel like getting out of bed and didn’t think my hair was great that day, but I remember I have a purpose, and everybody has a purpose. When you realize your purpose, you will be able to ignite that fire and be able to impact the world on your own level. I also think social media can play a part in having low self-esteem and self-confidence especially now because people think oh if I get a negative comment then that means whatever they say is true and that’s not true everybody has their own opinion that’s why I like to keep my distance from social media because I don’t want it to get in my head. This month is women’s history month. Are there women who have impacted you for the young woman that you are now and the woman you want to become? Trinitee: My mom has been one of the most impactful women in my life because she is an example of how I want to be when I grow up. She’s impactful and remains holy in all different aspects of her life. She is a great mom and a great friend, and she also teaches me how to be a virtuous woman, she sheds wisdom on different things that I might be going through so she is one of the most impactful women in my life. Dwana: I want to thank you for taking time to talk to me. Your spirit is beautiful and every time you say something it touches me, and I completely get why you were chosen to speak at the Many Shades of Colour Conference. You are going to be amazing. Thank you for taking the time today. The Urban Experience 29 Thank you.
