This is one of those questions where a guy frames it about women but it's actually just about himself.
First off man, props for getting to where you're at in life. It sounds like you are surrounded with supporting people and live a great life.
It sounds like you have shame about your success. I would challenge you to take a look at it and figure out why you feel that way. Even if it isn't shame, there is still some hang up around expressing who you are.
The difference between a successful person bragging who they are and someone who is humble and successful is VERY different. Perhaps you are afraid as coming off as a pretentious prick?
If you drive a Ferrari around and make sure it's the first thing you mention in every conversation you are the asshole.
If you are the guy who drives a Ferrari and never mentions it, and picks your date up in it you are the cool guy.
A lot of people are drawn to successful people. Generally because there is some kind of passion behind their success. I would focus on expression your passion over your success (financial, awards, status, etc.) All of the external factors will come across VERY clearly without you having to go into detail if you focus on talking about your passion.
