People pleasing will eventually cost you YOURSELF 👇🏼
I would know, because I did a 10/10 job of this for YEARS in my relationships 💔
If ‘going with the flow’ makes you more easygoing, friendlier & digestible for others, at some point you’ll start to wonder “who am I?”
At some point, questions start to pop up in the back corner of your mind:
What do I like?
What do I actually want?
What do I really DESIRE for myself?
WTF am I doing with my life?
When do I get to experience real, palpable, heart-expanding overflowing FREEDOM & FULFILMENT? ✨💛⚡️
🤔
Because here’s the truth -
When we silence our voice, our needs & our wants,
as sovereign, smart, worthy, women,
- whatever the reason may be -
we are neglecting & disconnecting from valuable & vital parts of our ourselves…
the parts that make you YOU - and you end up losing what makes you feel your best, most sparkling self ✨
This is what happens when we abandon ourselves.
I was brilliant at it.
Until I lost myself to everyone and everything else.
*And became very unwell.
May I lovingly remind you -
“Being difficult” (because you’re suddenly being honest, sharing your truth or expressing your emotions) is NOT a ‘symptom’ to water down, shrink or silence.
Women who fight change sometimes call it a crisis.
They sit in suffering & stuckness.
The women who work with it call it an upgrade -
They own all the parts of themselves they’ve dialled down.
Time to stop funding other people’s comfort & instead prioritise your Self - physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically, spiritually ✨
You either keep losing yourself, or you claim your next level upgrade.
Which are you choosing? 🔥
