Iâm still in a moon boot and I literally canât do so many of the things I want to be doing right now.
đ˘ No gardening.
đ˘ No setting up my new home the way I imagined.
đ˘ Renovations on pause.
đ˘ Plans on hold.
And if Iâm honest, thatâs been harder than the physical pain.
Anyone who knows me knows that Iâm someone who loves to do!!
I generally have several things on the go at once and a million plans racing around in my mind!!
This injury has asked something very different of me.
Patience - so not my strong point đ
Stillness - just đŠ
And asking for help - which doesnât come naturally.
Iâm also beginning to understand just how serious this injury actually is.
Recovery wonât be quick. Rehab will be part of the journey. And that realisation has landed more heavily than I expected.
This part of my journey is humbling.
Itâs confronting.
And itâs teaching me to soften my grip on timelines and expectations and has shifted my perspective and my goals.
I know so many women carry injuries, illnesses, or life pauses quietly, while the world keeps moving around them.
If youâre in a chapter where your body is asking you to slow down, even when your mind wants to push forward, I see you.
Youâre not lazy.
Youâre not behind.
Youâre listening.
And if youâre learning, like me, how to receive support instead of always being the strong one, youâre not alone đ
