I hold many beliefs.
Some Iโve released.
Some Iโve invited in.
Some I am yet to encounter.
Some shrank me.
Others have opened my soul and expanded my mind.
In what Iโm about to say, Iโve simplified the complex โ including some of the most challenging and confronting parts of the healing journey. But there are two beliefs I hold deeply, and they shape everything that follows:
๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ก๐๐ญ ๐ก๐๐ฌ ๐ก๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฎ๐ฌ.

From these, I believe something else becomes possible:

Becoming more asks for kindness, acceptance, empathy, and the courage to face uncomfortable truths through a self-compassionate lens. Often, this work brings us face to face with one of the hardest things of all:
๐บ๐๐๐๐.
Shame distorts how we see ourselves.
It shrinks us.
It feeds on fear, guilt, regret, and the belief that we are โless than.โ
But here is a truth that matters:
So much of the shame we carry was never ours to begin with.
It came from what was done to us.
And if it isnโt yours, it isnโt yours to carry.
Itโs time to lay it down.
The harder work is facing the shame that comes from what we did or didnโt do.
This asks for self accountability alongside compassion.
Not excuses โ but honesty.
Not punishment โ but understanding.
From there, we choose differently.
Moment by moment.
Step by step.
Moving toward who we are becoming.
Healing is not linear.
It doesnโt end.
Life happens.
We learn, we grow, we scar, we expand.
You are more than what happened to you.
You can become more than the worst thing you did.
In the final days of the Snake, the timing is now โ
to release what no longer serves
and ignite the spark within
as we shift toward the coming Fire Horse.
