Today I sat at both of my childrenâs awards ceremonies, watching each child receive a unique reflection of who they are becoming.
My youngest received
âThe Creative Sparkâ - shining with confidence, kindness, and a love of learning.
My oldest received
âGreat Sense of Humour & An Enquiring Mind.â
And somewhere between the applause and the quiet lump in my throat, I found myself wonderingâŚ
If there were an award for my life right now, what would it be?
Not the polished version.
Not the social media version.
The real one.
Would it be:
⢠Quiet resilience?
⢠Nervous system recalibration?
⢠Doing the best I can while healing old patterns?
⢠Showing up even when Iâm tired?
⢠Learning to receive instead of only hold?
It made me think about how we see ourselvesâŚ
And how others might experience us in ways we donât always recognise.
So I want to ask you:
What award would you receive right now - as you truly are?
AndâŚ
What would you want it to be?
Sometimes the gap between those two holds the most powerful truth.
Empower ⢠Expand ⢠Embody
