As a year was approaching since I started this passion project, I had been thinking of how proud of myself I was- to get out of my head, get out of my comfort zone, and just share my gifts! No more waiting for the perfect time, or perfect production, or even caring about how it will be received. I learned that only me, was holding me back… And in the same breath, only me could be the one to release me from the mental and emotional boxes I hid myself into, that really did no good… for anyone.
Before the pandemic, I was in a whirlwind of a relationship that ended abruptly and dramatically. I kind of lost myself in that relationship, and unfortunately, when it ended, not only was I absolutely devastated… But for the first couple months, I felt completely lost.
I was investing my all into building something with someone that had no intention on investing, nor pouring into me. It wasn’t until I started to heal, and face myself in the mirror- acknowledging my part, and the red flags that I chose to ignore, that allowed for space and opportunity to reclaim not only my time, but my voice.
I found myself again after healing, post heartbreak, stood unapologetically in my identity and voice again, and I truly haven’t looked back since! I love that for me!
