Always respect yourself as a woman. You attract what you are, so be very mindful of how you’re representing yourself. If you want respect, you must first learn how to respect yourself, first. Attracting negative attention is never a good thing. Be a woman of substance! Be a woman that both women and men respect, admire, and look up to. Don’t disrespect yourself by lowering your standards and accepting just anything that comes your way. It’s okay to be single! If you want a relationship of substance, you can’t keep entertaining people and things that mean you no good. Think about it! It’s all up to you.","author":"Stephanie Lahart","tags":["empowering","empowering","empowering-for-women","empowering-women","food-for-thought","real-talk","relationship-advice","relationship","relationships","respect-yourself","single-ladies","single-life","single-woman","standards","stephanie-lahart","stephanie-lahart","substance","woman","women","women-empowerment","words-of-wisdom","words-of-wisdom-inspirational"],"id":83341,"author_id":"Stephanie+Lahart"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":44,"pages":5,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
