We only ever see the butterfly.
The wings.
The “after.”
⸻
But we don’t see the cocoon.
The part where everything falls apart…
before it becomes something new.
⸻
As overgivers, we avoid that part.
We do more.
Give more.
Hold everything together.
⸻
But real growth?
It happens when you stop.
⸻
When you pull back
say no
and choose not to abandon yourself
⸻
That’s the transformation.
⸻
If you’re in the messy middle… you’re not behind
You’re in the cocoon
⸻
And your wings?
They’re coming.
