Polina Pushkareva Instagram – I am 29
My 28th year was the weirdest, hardest, but the most honest and wake-up-call year of my life.
I realised how messed up I am relationship-wise and finally started to heal. I learned to be attracted to guys who actually call me when I say I’m spiralling instead of giving me the ick
I learned to own the fact that my brain, business-wise IS different and unique and to stop downplaying it. I’m no longer surprised when a celeb I watched on TV as a kid wants to work only with me and is willing to pay enough to buy a house for just one month of my time. I also learned that a lot of people (and guys I see 🤠) feel uncomfortable around me when I’m in work-mode and I learned to cut them off, because it’s not my job to make myself smaller
Learned to see money only as a source of freedom to change the world and make my ideas VISIBLE. I barely buy clothes now, I spend on travelling, investing, and my business, and I couldn’t care less what new bag Hermès launched
Learned that you don’t have to be perfect for people to love you and started to shock my friends by crying in front of them or admitting that an idea I had didn’t work out. None of them started to love me less, and now I can see 13 of them today in NYC
It was a year that killed all entitlement, ego, and the “old me” with values that didn’t serve me anymore. Now it’s time to build ❤️
