The Story
Let go of the story.
We all have trauma.
We all carry weight.
We've all struggled, we've all succeeded.
Each in our own ways.
The narrative of your uniquely challenging and uniquely triumphant journey serves only to a point.
The narrative can break your chains. Beyond the narrative, however, it is up to you to stand up and walk away from the limitations it sets. The narrative can give you a temporary sense of purpose, it's up to you to free yourself from your personal prison.
The narrative can shift you from a victim of circumstance, to a survivor. It's up to you to transition from simply surviving to truly thriving.
Owning the story of how you came to be who you are is fundamentally essential.
That said, if you cannot let go of the story, and move beyond its confines, you will never be able to grow into the abundant space it leaves behind.
So, lean into the story. Embrace the story. Own the story.
Then let it go.
I love you.
