Embracing the Woman You Are Becoming

One day, a friend asked me a question about what I could get back

“To feel like myself again”, I responded

And then she hit me with something that has stuck with me that I will share with you.

What if to feel like yourself is more about embracing who you are today than getting back to who you once were because you will never be that girl again.

You have more wisdom.

More experience.

Your energy may be different, but you’re more intentional about how you spend it.

Who you are now is special and with the gift of time, you will never be today’s version of you either. Instead of looking back at what used to be, we should cultivate a mindset of gratitude for today.

Let go of the beauty standards and love who is looking back in the mirror right now. Give yourself patience with how you do things. Be intentional with focusing on your current blessings. Perspectives have shifted. Let go of your age and know that getting older is a gift. This is the one that is toughest for me if I’m being honest. And when that mindset of being the old you resurfaces, talk to yourself. Let go of what you lack and embrace the wisdom you’ve gained.

We are not running out of time, we are right on time with where we’re supposed to be.

Embrace who you are now. 

Feel the warmth of the sun on your skin. 

Acknowledge the passing wind in your hands

Find joy in the rain.

You are who your old self desired to be. Everything may not have turned out how you desired it, but I bet old you is proud of the woman that she has become. And you should be proud too. You haven’t made it this far for no reason and you have so much further to go.

And with that we now queue, Olivia Dean’s “Lady Lady”. Have a great week ahead beautiful!

💕 Live again! Reflect, journal your ideal life keep accountable to living a life you desire.
