Tia Mowry obtained actual about nervousness.
On Tuesday, the 43-year-old actress, carrying a easy white T-shirt, shared two makeup-free selfies — showing lower than thrilled within the first and all smiles within the second. Mowry opened up about her struggles with nervousness within the accompanying caption.
“I want to take a moment to be real with you guys,” she wrote. “Y’all are used to seeing me in a photo like the second, but that’s not always the case. In this first photo I was really going through a moment of tough anxiety and weird doubts and had just had a cry. And even though it was a really hard moment, I took this photo because I wanted to visually see what I was going through and witness my rawness — so I could grow through it.”
Mowry stated it was vital to be “vulnerable with yourself (and others)” and that she shared the picture partially “to encourage you to really sit with those feelings in life’s hard moments and notice how you come out on the other side. Because I bet it’s stronger and even more beautiful than before.”
Fans appreciated Mowry’s unfiltered commentary and openness.
“Thank you for taking that moment to be real with us. You are an amazing person and I believe your strength is incredible. You will get through the doubt and anxiety and come out Stronger than before. Trouble doesn’t last always and there is a bright light at the end of that tunnel. Love too Tia,” one individual commented.
“Love you so much for this & everything else you do to uplift me & yourself,” one other fan wrote.
“Absolutely beautiful,” posted one other.
This is much from the primary time the Mistletones star has talked about nervousness. In an interview with Bustle in November, she shared what she does to fight nervousness.
“A lot of people were being overly productive during quarantine, almost like a defense mechanism,” Mowry defined. “I was absolutely one of those people, but in time, I learned that being non-productive was being productive, in a way. I learned how to relax and prioritize self-care, whether it was meditating, taking a nap, or indulging in some red velvet cupcakes. Once I started to focus on that, I had a better grasp of my day-to-day, which made me feel less anxious.”
