Sexy Is An Idea

One evening, during a conversation with someone I was dating, I shared how he made me feel sexy. His response transformed my entire perspective: "You know sexy is just an idea, what you feel is because it's what you imagine yourself to be. Because to me, you have always been sexy."

This profound insight sparked a revolutionary understanding of sensuality and self-expression that I'm excited to share with the Age with Power community. It marked the beginning of my journey to understanding that our sensual power isn't something given to us – it's something we already possess.

Breaking Free from Society's Script

For decades, we've been fed a narrow definition of sexy through advertising and media. The irony? Women are the primary purchasers of products marketed using hypersexualized female imagery. We've been buying into an artificial standard that diminishes our natural, authentic appeal.

The Liberation of Authenticity

The real power lies in recognizing that sensuality isn't about external validation or specific clothing. It's an internal state that we can access anytime, anywhere. Whether in comfortable pajamas or elegant evening wear, our sensuality emerges from our self-acceptance and inner confidence.

Understanding Your Sensual Sovereignty

When we embrace the idea that "sexy" is simply a concept we choose to embody, we reclaim our power to express our sensuality authentically. This understanding frees us from the exhausting pursuit of external standards and allows us to tap into our natural magnetic presence.

The Power of Self-Definition

As women over 50, we've earned the right to define our sensuality on our own terms. This isn't about becoming something new – it's about recognizing and embracing who we've always been. Our sensual nature doesn't diminish with age; it deepens with our growing self-awareness and confidence.

Embracing Your Natural State

Understanding that sexy is an idea liberates us from the constraints of societal expectations. It's not about what we wear, how we look, or what others think – it's about how we feel in our own skin. As women we can celebrate the power of self-defined sensuality.

The Ultimate Freedom

When we truly internalize that sexy is just an idea, we gain the freedom to be ourselves in every moment. We can feel sensual while gardening, powerful during business meetings, and magnetic in our everyday lives. This is the essence of aging with power – recognizing that our sensuality, like our wisdom, only grows richer with time.

Your journey to embracing this truth is unique to you. Remember, you're not becoming sexy – you're simply allowing yourself to recognize and own the sensual power you've always possessed. This is the true meaning of living fiercely and authentically in your own skin.
