How to become “THAT GIRL”

So, you’ve stumbled across this whole ‘That Girl’ trend, huh? Let me guess – your TikTok For You page is flooded with videos of girls waking up at the crack of dawn, sipping greensmoothies, and crushing their workouts before most of us have even hit snooze. Trust me, I’ve been there, scrolling endlessly and wondering, “How on earth do I become THAT?”

Well, grab a comfy seat and maybe your favorite beverage, because we’re about to have a heart-to-heart about this ‘That Girl’ business.

You are already “That Girl”.

You ARE already ‘That Girl’. Yep, you heard me right!

Now, I know what you’re thinking. “But I don’t wake up at 5 AM!” or “My idea of a workout is running to catch the bus!” Don’t worry, I’ve been there too. The thing is, being ‘That Girl’ isn’t about fitting into some cookie-cutter mold. It’s about being the best version of YOU.

What exactly does it mean to be “that girl”?

Let’s break it down, shall we?

If you ask TikTok, ‘That Girl’ is some superhuman who meditates at sunrise, hits the gym, showers with fancy eucalyptus leaves (seriously, what’s up with that?), journals her heart out, and only eats food that looks like it belongs in a magazine.

But here’s the secret – there’s no one-size-fits-all ‘That Girl’. Your version might love midnight snacks and Netflix marathons, and guess what? That’s totally okay!

For me, being ‘That Girl’ means living my best life, whatever that looks like on any given day. Sometimes it’s crushing my to-do list, and sometimes it’s giving myself permission to have a lazy day. It’s all about balance, baby!

So, how do we do that?

1. Embrace Your Quirky, Wonderful Self

Remember in high school when we all tried to fit in? Yeah, let’s leave that behind. Your quirks, your passions, even your weird little habits – they’re what make you, YOU. Embrace them!I used to hide my obsession with cheesy 80s movies, but now? I own it. Life’s too short not to be authentically you.

2. Confidence is Key (But It’s Not Always Easy)

Ah, confidence. That magical quality that ‘That Girl’ seems to ooze. But here’s a little secret – even the most confident-looking people have moments of doubt.

The trick? Fake it ’til you make it. Stand tall, speak up, and remember that you are a badass, even on days when you don’t feel like one. Trust me, the more you act confident, the more you’ll actually feel it.

3. Time Management (Without Losing Your Mind)

Okay, let’s talk about juggling all the things. It’s not about cramming your day full of activities. It’s about making time for what truly matters to you.

For me, that means using my trusty planner (shoutout to my Ultimate Life Notion Planner – it’s a game-changer!) and being realistic about what I can achieve in a day. Remember, it’s okay to say no to things that don’t align with your goals or bring you joy.

4. Love That Beautiful Body (and Mind) of Yours

Self-care isn’t selfish, it’s necessary! Find what makes you feel good – maybe it’s a bubble bath, a sweaty workout, or just sitting in silence for five minutes (if you can get it!).

Personally, I’ve found that a mix of yoga, long walks, and the occasional dance party in my living room keeps me feeling my best. Find what works for you and make it a non-negotiable part of your routine.

5. Surround Yourself with Your Cheerleaders

You know that friend who always makes you feel like a million bucks? Keep them close! And the ones who bring you down? It might be time to re-evaluate those relationships.

Having a solid support system is crucial. Find your people – the ones who’ll celebrate your wins and help you through the tough times. Bonus points if you can find an accountability partner to help you stay on track with your goals!

In this journey to becoming “That Girl,” I’ve discovered that it’s not about perfection but about embracing the imperfect, authentic, and confident version of myself. Now, it’s your turn. Reflect on your uniqueness, cultivate confidence, and let your journey toward empowerment begin. Here’s to unleashing your inner “That Girl”!
