Living life as a strong, outspoken woman comes with its own set of challenges. Other women sometimes see me as competition instead of connection, and men have admitted I make them feel less than. For a long time, those reactions made me question myself, my femininity, and my place. But I’ve learned that being “alpha” isn’t a flaw — it just means I need to navigate relationships differently. I’ve found ways to claim my space, build trust with women, and still find the love, respect, and sisterhood I deserve.
