It's Mattering May. 🤍
I've been sitting with Jennifer Wallace's book Mattering, and I can't stop thinking about this: mattering is a fundamental human need. Not a nice-to-have. Not something you earn when you've done enough or been enough. A need, as essential as food and shelter.
And yet so many of us walk around feeling invisible.
Invisible in the waiting room. Invisible at the school pickup. Invisible in our own bodies, especially when those bodies are hurting, changing or just plain tired.
This month, I want to do something different. I want to show up here not just as a Pilates teacher, but as someone who sees you. Really sees you.
Not the you that has it together. The you that's just trying.
That person matters. Deeply.
Will you join me for the rest of this month? Drop a 🤍 below if you've ever felt invisible — and let's talk about it. When was the last time someone made you feel truly seen? I'll go first in the comments.
