She kept going back to that friend group—the one where every time she left a dinner, she felt small. Like she had to explain her dreams.
Dim her joy.
Prove her worth.
She told herself she was just being sensitive.
That maybe if she did more “inner work,” she’d stop getting so triggered.
And yet one night, driving home with her chest tight and her jaw clenched, she finally paused.
Instead of spiraling in analysis, she asked:
“What if this tightness is the answer?”
“What if I’m not broken—but simply out of resonance?”
Her body wasn’t signaling her to fix it.
It was signaling her to release it.
That was the last dinner she attended.
No dramatic exit.
No hate.
Just a quiet decision to honor what her energy had been whispering all along.
Since then, her life’s been lighter.
Calmer. More authentic.
More her.
And her tribe, that aligned with her deeply, found her.
Because when you stop negotiating with your nervous system and start trusting its signals, everything changes.
