Keep Glowing. Keep Going.

External progress is great and all, but I wish there was a way to show internal growth.

Showing the lightness that exists within when we release old narratives,

when we create and hold healthy boundaries,

when we look in the mirror and say:

"I see your scars,

I see your struggles,

I see all the ugly bits of myself and yet I’m still here.

I’m still choosing life.

I’m still working on me while being content with the chapter I’m in.”

The internal progress can’t be shown in a photo, but it can be felt in your heart.

It can be felt in the love you give to others AND yourself.

It’s something only you can feel and see.

So shed that old self that’s no longer supporting yourself in this stage.

Release the expectations of everyone around you.

Be proud of yourself for everything you have lived through.

Your growth matters.

Your mental health matters.

Your physical health matter.

YOU MATTER - Today, tomorrow, and ALL the years to come.

Keep showing up.

Keep struggling through the obstacles thrown your way.

Keep going.

Keep GLOWING.

Keep GROWING.
