Listen, the truth is I'm a big dork, but I get pretty feisty when I think about all the amazing women I know who have made self-abandonment a way of life.

To be clear, I'm not annoyed AT them, I'm annoyed FOR them. Annoyed for all of us who have ever bought into the lie that to be a compassionate and caring woman, you have to deny your own needs and wants, or that self-care makes you selfish.

You don't and it doesn't.

You can be deeply compassionate without ignoring your SELF.

You matter. You are worthy and you are enough. 🌷

Drop a comment if this resonates because you're my people.🩷

I love this! 💖

You will disappoint people when you stop being who they needed you to be. There is no way around that.

Because for a long time, your worth was tied to how well you could hold things together. How agreeable you were.
How much you could carry without asking for anything back.

And when that starts to change, it unsettles people.

Not because you’re doing something wrong, but because you’re no longer organizing yourself around what keeps them comfortable.

Self-worth doesn’t always look like confidence. Sometimes it looks like choosing not to shrink, even when it costs you connection.

Most people mean well & some of these even sound supportive until you’re the one hurting. Not everything needs to be reframed, fixed, or silver-lined. Sometimes it just needs to be allowed to exist. 🥀
