Heyyyy Reader 💖

I used to be the strong one.

The reliable one. The one who figured it out.

Who stayed late. Who checked in.

Who smiled through the overwhelm and said, “I’m good,” even when I was crumbling on the inside.

Until one day, I realized...

I wasn’t strong.

I was stretched.

I was silently suffering while everyone kept handing me more to carry. 😭

And what hurt the most Reader?

I didn’t know how to stop—because I had no idea who I was without the hustle. Outside of my trauma... who the heck was I?

If you’re reading this while your phone is buzzing and your planner is screaming… pause.

Not because you’ve earned a break.

But because you never had to hustle for your worth in the first place Reader.

💭 You don’t owe the world your most put-together self today.

💭 You don’t have to lead with exhaustion.

💭 You don’t have to keep showing up in full when you’re secretly falling apart.

Most ambitious women aren’t afraid to rest. They’re afraid of what happens if they actually do.

You’ve been carrying too much, for too long, without the language to say:

“This is my stop. I’m done shrinking for your comfort.”

So here’s what we’re doing instead: put it into practice!

​

1️⃣ Start slow on purpose. Instead of jumping into your to-do list, breathe. Pray. Stretch. Journal. Don’t perform presence. Be present. 2️⃣ Use boundary scripts that do the talking for you. Not sure how to say no without feeling guilty? I got you. 👇🏽 Tap below to access last week's boundary carousel: Gimme the scripts Boo! 3️⃣ Let your ‘No’ be a ministry. Say it. Mean it. Don’t justify it. You don’t need permission to protect your peace.

Or you can tap the image below to read the entire carousel thread...
