35% of Women Happily Embrace Aging And the Confidence That Comes With It!
A new survey of 2,000 women aged 30 and older examined the changes in respondents’ self-confidence throughout their lives, and it revealed two-thirds (63%) believe the older they are, the more confident they’ll be.
For women whose confidence increases with age, 63% said this is a result of caring less about what others think — with the average woman feeling most comfortable in her skin at age 32.
Additionally, 45% feel more settled in their life, and 35% are more likely to embrace the changes in their looks as they grow older.
