Actress Jessica Alba says she can relate to feelings of self doubt and being judged.

The "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" actress has recently opened up about her insecurities as a young woman and has now teamed up with German consumer product Braun's 'Break Free' campaign in a bid to spread positivity amongst women, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

She said of her involvement: ''I completely relate to feelings of self-doubt and feeling judged but, happily, I also know personally how wonderfully empowering female positive reinforcement is.

''I'm encouraging women to say, share and show their support to female friends, family, colleagues - sisters everywhere."

''Let's give each other the confidence to break free from self-doubt and all walk that little bit taller. Think of a woman you admire today and tell her," she added.

The "Break Free" campaign follows research that revealed 91 per cent of women feel judged in everyday scenarios and 85 per cent lack the faith that other women admire them.
