Change is here
Itching at our skin
Tipping over rigid fortresses
Inviting us to look
(REQUIRING that we look)
At all the messes we’d swept so neatly
Under the rug.

“No! I can’t bear it!”
We sob, eyes wet with terror,
Convinced of our unworthiness
Convinced we are not capable
Convinced we are all the terrible things
That have been spoken over us.

Change just stands there
Steady, unwavering.

“Look,” she points
And at last we raise our head
To see the unthinkable
And find what we never expected.

We are beautiful.

But, oh.
You don’t see that yet.

Here now, let me help you wiggle free
Shedding the container that no longer fits
Honoring who you used to be
And letting it go.

It is time to step into the glorious riot of now.

❤️
Molly

To one person, you’re living their dream. To another, you’re barely trying. To yourself, you’re just figuring it out. Perspective changes everything. Gratitude keeps it steady.

When you stop shrinking yourself to fit into spaces that were never meant for your light, you start attracting people who celebrate your wholeness.

This is your reminder to stop apologizing for taking up space.
You are not too much — you are exactly enough.

✨ Stand in your power. Own your truth. Shine anyway.

People pleasing.
This is the one that unlocked a new level of understanding for me, and how I learned about my own areas of emotional unavailability.

I NEVER thought I was emotionally unavailable, despite often finding myself in relationships with or pursuing emotionally unavailable people. After all, I felt my feelings strongly and I was very attuned to other people’s emotions, so that must mean I was available, right?

What I’ve slowly learned is that by downplaying my own needs and feelings in order to hold space for and meet the needs of everyone else, I wasn’t being honest with myself OR them.

I wasn’t actually letting people see me.
I was controlling the narrative, and would often end up being passive aggressive later on down the line because I hadn’t been open about what was working for me throughout the relationship. Sometimes I didn’t even know, because I was so desperate to be accepted that I was just trying to be who I thought they wanted me to be.

Emotional availability is being present to your feelings and needs and being willing to share them, and allowing the other person to have their own feelings and responses to your needs. It’s vulnerable bc we’re never sure what’s going to happen.

And of course, we people-please for a reason.
I didn’t do this on purpose; it was what I was raised to do in my family system because many parts of me were shamed early on, so I developed the ability to hide them.
I still sometimes have to fight the urge to downplay my own needs and to actually speak up when my feelings might inconvenience someone.

But I see it now.

Hiding your actual needs and feelings doesn’t allow other people to see the real you. They don’t get to know the real you or hold space for the real you. They don’t get the privilege of helping you when you need it, or get to show deeper sides of their personality if they’re only ever responding to one aspect of yours.

In case you missed it, The EQ School can send daily texts to your phone — which is great if you’re trying to spend less time on social media but still want reminders that help you check in with yourself, and to remind you of why you’re doing the work.

The gift of pain is one of life’s strangest alchemies. It carves deep hollows within us, but these empty spaces transform into vessels perfectly shaped to hold the pain of others. When you’ve navigated your own darkness, you gain an intuitive ability to recognize it in another’s eyes.⁣

There’s a sacred moment in that recognition. A quiet but powerful connection: “I see you. I know this shadow you carry.” Often, we reach out because we remember what it felt like to stand alone in our storms, longing for someone to offer shelter or light. That shared humanity becomes the bridge between wounds, creating a space for healing.⁣

This kind of compassion is precious, but it can also be consuming. If you’re not mindful, the same heart that wants to carry others can collapse under the weight of too much. Supporting someone doesn’t mean sacrificing yourself. Boundaries aren’t walls, but bridges offering self-preservation, allowing you to keep showing up without losing yourself.⁣

Compassion is a renewable resource, but only if you care for its source. You can’t be a sanctuary for others if your own foundation is crumbling. To honour someone else’s pain without abandoning your own healing is an act of wisdom and love. Real compassion isn’t about martyrdom; it’s about walking alongside someone while staying rooted in your own needs.⁣

Finding this balance allows you to give from a place of abundance, not depletion. It ensures that your kindness doesn’t become self-erasure and that your gift of holding space remains as healing for you as it is for them.

This is literally the difference between love bombing and the real deal.
