For those women who grew up too fast. For those who had enormous amounts of responsibility put on their shoulders. For those who wanted to save the world but save their home first, I see you. 🖤
Maybe you missed out on your childhood. Maybe it’s hard to enjoy life or have fun without thinking about all the things on your to do list. Maybe….. you feel like you’re the warrior. The one that needs to fix it all. Do it all. Protect them all.
You’re strong, I’ll give you that. You wouldn’t have survived and made it here without that amount of grit, ambition or passion. But there’s walls up. Not only walls that keep others out but more so are the walls that keep YOU from getting in. The places that need YOU most.
All the things I couldn’t fix, solve or protect became what I needed to ‘do’ the most. Disconnected from my innocence and expression from focusing on the armor. The swords. The shield.
What did I need to learn? Compassion.
It wasn’t my job to fix, solve or even to be a victim. It was my place to realize our paths are our paths and there no amount of self suffering to heal that in others but what was needed wasn’t force and forge. It was holding the space of love, compassion and support.
To become a safe space first for ourselves and then learn to hold that space for others.
