You don't need to abandon yourself to keep someone else happy.
How often do we make ourselves smaller, quieter, less sensitive, less passionate, less us because we're afraid of someone else's reaction?
But real connection shouldn't require you to disappear.
You can love someone without agreeing with them.
You can listen without abandoning your own truth.
You can be misunderstood and still remain fully yourself.
So this week, notice where you're shrinking.
And ask yourself:
Who would I be if I wasn't trying to be accepted?
Then let a little more of you come through. ✨
