because wanting to be liked by everyone ALL THE TIME is far too exhausting and never worth it.
ājust be yourselfā is probably the most basic piece of advice ever given and yet somehow itās taken me 24 years of my life to finally start considering it. funny how life works!

been thinking a lot about self-awareness lately and what makes me āme.ā Iām always trying to figure out how to transform my inner critic to real personal growth without shame.
being honest and not editing myself to any given room was one of the first things I began to tackle in therapy. existing among other humans is an ongoing give and take, and Being Who You Are without apology while treating others with respect is really all you need to do in this life. learning how to be kind and true, and finding the good amongst so much bad and then sharing it with others makes the world go āround

my life greatly improved when i stopped trying to anticipate what other people expected me to say (iām pretty bad at it) and started being straightforward and honest about how i feel and what i think. donāt hide behind being nonchalant and ironic! show people how much you do care and who you genuinely are! itās scary, but makes it much easier to discern who you truly vibe with and remember who you truly are :)

It really only matters that you are radically honest with yourself. Itās actually for your own benefit that you are not radically honest with everyone else.
Being radically honest with yourself means you go deep and deeper until you get to the core in truth of why you are feeling the way that you are feeling. Itās really easy to get stuck in confusion and unsureness if we are keeping things surface level. A lot of the time the things that are true to how Iām feeling I feel silly about, so they are buried a little deeper. I love the feeling of speaking the truth to myself and feeling it all unlock and make sense. Everything becomes clear. It all calms. Now, I can take action in a grounded and thoughtful way. Dare I say, in the most loving way possible for myself and othersā¦
