advice she'd give her younger self

Gabrielle Union has shared the advice she’d give her younger self. The star spilled the wise words during an interview for People Magazine‘s beauty issue.

Gabrielle shared that it’s okay to not have all the answers. She said in part: “The advice I would give my younger self 10 years ago would be that you don’t have all the answers. Don’t stress out.”

The actress also shared that she’d tell her younger self to be aware of the people around her. She said in part: “Some of your day ones have been hating since day one. Getting rid of toxic people is probably the best anti-aging thing you can do in your life because a terrible crowd will age you like cigarettes.”

I always say, dont take advise from someone whose never gone where you are trying to go. Dont ask directions from folks who never go anywhere. There are people who prefer you to be stuck. Stuck people are easier to control and manipulate. You may fail time and time again but it’s our failures that offer the best guidance. Dont be afraid of NOT being everything to everyone…cuz that’s the quickest way to being nothing to you. Love and light good people.
