Stepping into your power often looks like changing to people around you.
But you’re not changing, you’re remembering who you are without the masks, without the over-giving, and the self-abandonment.
The moment you become authentic, you become harder to control, you stop over-explaining, you stop saying yes when your body says no, you stop performing a version of yourself that kept others comfortable.
And suddenly….. not everyone likes you.
And that’s not a coincidence.
People who benefited from your silence, your softness, or self-doubt will struggle when you no longer offer it.
Because there’s no use for someone who can’t be manipulated or managed.
You may be called too much, or shes different, or shes not who she used to be.
There may even be stories created..
But this doesn't matter!
Authenticity makes you sovereign, unavailable for guilt, control, or emotional projection.
It will cost you approval.
But it gives you freedom, clarity, and self-trust.
And the right people, they won’t be threatened by your truth, they’ll feel safer around it.
So step into your power gently.
Let it unfold at your pace.
Your authenticity is not something you need to defend..... it’s something you get to live. 🫶
Authenticity is being in alignment with yourself, even when it’s uncomfortable.... 🫶✨️
It’s choosing honesty over approval.
Listening to your body instead of external expectations.
Letting your values, boundaries, and truth guide your choices rather than fear of being disliked or misunderstood.
Authenticity isn’t about being loud, blunt, or having no filter.
It’s about being congruent.....what you feel, think, say, and do are all moving in the same direction. 👌
Authenticity is self-trust in action.
And that’s why it can feel threatening, to others and sometimes to ourselves. Because once you’re authentic, you’re no longer abandoning yourself to keep the peace.
It’s not something you perform or something you have to always tell people you are...... it’s something you remember. 🫶✨️
So a gentle reminder to stay true to yourself 🙏✨️❣️
It can be a lonely road at times but when you are truly yourself- life really is beautiful and the universe lands everything in your path.. ❣️✨️🥰
Happy Solstice- wishing you all a blessed day..
