I really needed to hear this! Ive been in this process myself and it is so so difficult, but also very rewarding. Ive never been happier, even when im struggling through it because I know that Im being me and thats what matters. Ive made more connections that I ever have before and it’s really gratifying to see and be with people who see me for me and not having to hide that!!
This makes so so happy. Agreed it’s the most rewarding journey to finally start revealing parts of yourself and experiencing all the positives that come with that ❤️ thank you for sharing
I have learned that I only have control over two things. I can resist reality, including who I am and make things worse. And I can stop making it worse. That is enough.
I'm so glad I landed on these words because I needed this. I particularly related to how the lack of self acceptance played out for you. It instantly brought a scenarios to my mind where I'm not especially accepting of myself. I feel a little less alone in this feeling now. Thank you for sharing this, Jodie. I know you wrote this a year ago but I found it really helpful today. 🌷✨🫶🏼
Loved this post so much. I related so much to the disconnect you feel when you don’t feel safe to take up space and be yourself. Recently have also felt a shift towards authenticity and true regulation and absolutely loving the benefits it reaps

I love the very last line of your post. 'There is a space that only you can fill.' YES.
You are precisely the right person to be who you are. The one who gives the gift of yourself to the world. Thank you for posting.
thank you for sharing Thomas. I love the last line too, it makes me remember how important it is to be ourselves and accept ourselves in all senses.

Thanks so much Jake. Glad to hear you're reaping the benefits. It's been a slow process for me but so worth it.
