Pamela Redmond, OLDER

Pamela: A redo, I think like a lot of women I would say I'd be more confident. I'd be more ambitious. I would have fewer self-doubts, which is something that I see in a lot of younger women now. It took me all these years to get confident enough to say, this is what I want to do. I'm going to do it. It doesn't matter if X or Y doesn't like it or doesn't want me to do it. I would start writing a novel and be excited and show it to a friend. They would say, "I don't really love this." I would be like, "You're right. It sucks. I'm stopping. That's the end." Now I think about that. That is terrible. It just seems terrible that I had not enough confidence on my own inner desires or compass to follow that no matter what someone else thought.
