I’ve been sitting with something and it finally clicked this weekend - mid coffee, of all places. ☕️
I’ve been stuck.
Not in a “my life is falling apart” way. But in that way where you know something’s off, but you can’t quite put your finger on it.
I kept trying to figure it out and shape it into something that made sense, but the harder I tried, the flatter it felt.
Here’s what finally landed:
I wasn’t stuck because I couldn't figure it out. I was stuck because I couldn’t hear myself anymore.
I've been doing a lot of behind the scenes work in my business this past month, and I realized I'd been adjusting my voice. I was diluting and watering down my messaging to fit into something this work doesn't even belong in.
That was the "off" feeling in my body - I was out of alignment with what was authentic for me.
Once it clicked in, I felt my whole nervous system exhale.
I had my own sacred shift moment. 😊
I know I’m not the only one who ends up here sometimes. Capable people get stuck too. People who are self-aware lose access to their own voice - their own knowing.
It can feel like you’re broken or doing it wrong, but you’re not. You’re just being human.
And maybe trying to fit yourself into something that's not true for you doesn't work anymore. And maybe you're at the point where listening and trusting yourself is more aligned for you than how the rest of the world perceives or receives you.
Just maybe. 😉
