befriend yourself
You are not bad, wrong, or broken. If YOU FEEL WEARY of all the internal and external chatter making you feel less than, like a problem to be fixed, or pointing out how you never measure up or keep up, learn to quiet all the noise and come home to yourself. Embrace the messy and beautiful truth of who you are including your strength and struggle and exchange judgment for curiosity, shame for self-compassion, and fear for agency. It may feel impossible at the moment, but you CAN learn to love yourself completely and build a life that feels like home.
They decided to be their own best friend and committed to practicing self-compassion. No more bullying, wishing themself away or berating themself for simply being human in a messy world. Slowly but surely, comparison, perfectionism, and fear fell away until they began to breathe more easily. They found freedom.
