Britney Spears says she wants to get her "confidence and consistency back."
The pop superstar, 42, shared a candid Instagram post on Friday, July 13, in which she included a throwback dance video from September 2023 and said that she needs to "slow down."
"I guess I need to brace myself and slow down and recap the past year because I think I had a false confidence after my divorce," Spears wrote, alongside the clip of her dancing to Madonna's "I'm Addicted" in her living room. "Although I did post some of my best work with 'Ray of Light' and 'I’m Addicted' by Madonna !!! There was a lot of WTF 😬 moments !!! Trust me I know we’re all human and make mistakes !!!"

Spears — who split from Sam Asghari in August after over a year of marriage — then shared in the post that she apologizes "for not being perfect."
"I literally need to go back and adjust and possibly do a couple more therapy sessions," she continued. "I apologize for not being perfect and I will try and get confidence and consistency back like I used to have 😘😘😘 !!!"
Spears, who last fall released her best-selling memoir The Woman in Me, had her divorce from Asghari finalized in May when a judge with the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County signed off on it.
The pair separated due to "irreconcilable differences that have led to the irremediable breakdown of the marriage, makin -
g it impossible for the parties to live together as husband and wife," per documents previously obtained by PEOPLE. Following the split, Asghari, now 30, told PEOPLE that he considered their time together "a blessing."
“It was a blessing to be able to share life with someone for a long time. And people grow apart and people move on,” he said in March.
“I've always hated people leaving a certain relationship — and at some point they told each other they love each other and they sat at the same table and ate food together — so I never understood when people part ways and they talk badly about each other," he added. "That's something I'm never going to do because I had nothing but an amazing experience and a great life, and that's always going to be part of my life, a chapter of my life."
Elsewhere on her Instagram in recent weeks, Spears has shared videos of herself dancing and posing to Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks," Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" and J Balvin and Willy Williams' "Mi Gente."
Alongside the video with the J Balvin track, Spears revealed in a caption that it marked her first time dancing "in so long."
"It’s been 9 months since I have danced but I did last night … It’s not very good but I did it," she wrote.
While she says she's getting back on track with dancing, Spears has also given fans some insight into her life through inspirational quotes, a look at her recent trip to Greece, and a cute video featuring her tiny white dog Snow, whom she welcomed amid the divorce last year.
