Can we talk about the phrase:
✨ “I’m entering my villain era.” ✨
Because somewhere along the line social media got confused.
Your villain era is not permission to become a complete menace to society.
It is not:
❌ Stealing puppies
❌ Burning down forests
❌ Replying “k” to every text
❌ Leaving one sip of milk in the carton
❌ Being a c u next Tuesday and calling it self-care
🤣
No.
Your villain era is usually what happens after years of people pleasing.
After years of over-giving.
After years of abandoning yourself to keep everyone else comfortable.
It’s the phase where the people who benefited from your lack of boundaries suddenly become very upset that you have some.
It’s choosing yourself after a lifetime of choosing everyone else.
It’s saying:
“I can’t do that.”
Without writing a 14-page apology.
It’s recognising that being kind doesn’t require self-sacrifice.
It’s understanding that having boundaries doesn’t make you selfish.
And it’s realising that some people only liked the version of you that never said no.
The truth?
Most villain eras aren’t villain eras at all.
They’re healing eras viewed from the perspective of people who no longer have unlimited access to you.
💜
