Somewhere along the way, many of us learned to measure our lives against rules we never agreed to.
Rules that told us when to bloom, when to shrink, when we were doing too much or not enough. Over time, those voices stop sounding external and start living inside us, shaping how we see ourselves.
Healing is not about fixing who you are.
Itโs about gently noticing which expectations were inherited, which pressures were absorbed, and which beliefs were never yours to carry. You donโt have to rush this unlearning.
Softness is not delay. Itโs discernment.
If youโre choosing differently, youโre not broken.
Youโre listening.
And that is already an act of quiet freedom.
