If you’re like me and have a mental health diagnosis, I want to remind you that you are a strong, resilient and powerful warrior. No matter the obstacles you’re presented with, you can achieve whatever you set your mind to. You are worthy and capable of a successful and fulfilling life. You got this!
Sending love and hugs to whoever may be struggling right now 🦋.
It’s okay to be proud of the progress you’ve made thus far. It might not be where you would like to be, or where you thought you’d be, but regardless, it’s amazing how much work you’ve put in to get to this point. Continue on the path that’s best for you. Alignment comes to those who are consistent in their pursuit to get to where they know they deserve.
Keep going.
It’s okay to be gentle with yourself during transitions in your life. Whether it be moving to a new home, changing doctors/therapists, trying something new, starting a new job/change in finances, changing schools, losing friends, experiencing a breakup, grieving the loss of a love one, or letting go of someone you love and care about, transitions are difficult to cope with.
Learning to adjust and adapt to change is challenging and that’s okay. Know that you are not alone and you can give yourself time to grieve whatever it is you are moving forward from.
Give yourself permission to feel whatever emotions come up with change and reach out if you need to. Your feelings and experiences are valid no matter how “big” or “small” the change.
I love you.
To whoever needs this message. Keep going.
To the advocates, activists, advisors, counselors, therapists, social workers, life coaches, teachers:
It’s okay if you rest and prioritize yourself today. Your wellness is as sacred as your profession. Just as you would tell anyone you work with, you are important too.
Often times we stay stuck in the reality of our past. We dwell and ruminate on the what-ifs and maybes. We stand in what we can’t walk away from. But, that doesn’t have to be where we are forever. We can give ourselves permission to move forward. We can dissect and navigate our mistakes, regrets, and pain in order to clear the path of progress for ourselves. The more we become comfortable with our discomfort and adjust our eyes in the darkest parts of ourselves, we learn to forgive what we were and make room for who we can become.
Make room for yourself to walk forward. Clear a path so that you can forgive and lift the weight that’s been keeping you standing instead of moving forward. Manifest something different. Manifest clarity and grace. Manifest wellness and peace. You deserve to feel free. This is your time for freedom.
Speak up.
Allow your voice to fill the room, especially when matters concern you and your well-being. Ask questions and be present in important conversations.
Don’t be afraid. Don’t fall into the shadows.
You matter and so does your voice and what you have to say. Learn as you grow in your own confidence and assertiveness. If you need something, say something. If something feels off and uncomfortable, let the right person know or find someone who will be helpful to you.
Take care of yourself.
You are important.
Stop focusing on those parts of your body that you hate.
That flaw you keep bringing up.
The stutter.
Your weight.
Being different. Having different abilities.
Your sensitivities.
Not getting certain types of attention.
Being single.
Feeling invisible.
Not feeling worthy or capable of what you want to become.
You are beautiful in everything you are. How your body moves, your intelligence, drive, ambitions, and strength. The way you love, your healing journey, and your talents.
You are a whole being on your own without the presence of someone else. You are seen and heard.
You are valuable and worthy of self-love. No one can give you the love you give yourself.
Enjoy your own company and bask in the splendor of how amazing you are. There is only one of you and no one else can be who you are.
Some days may be difficult, but that’s okay. Just always remember that your purpose is so essential it can’t be expressed in words.
Keep going. We need you here. We need you to exist.
Whatever it is you are experiencing, going through, or thinking about remember you are capable of what you set your mind to.
If you see it for yourself and believe it to come true manifest it and it will be yours.
Success is in you and your goals.
You got this.
Put in the work.
Be persistent.
Go for it.
You got it.
