Be There for Yourself

When things are good, bad, scary, transformative…be there for yourself.

We have so much we go through day to day that after a year passes we look back and can minimize what we have overcame or accomplished.

So be present for the emotions that you’re experiencing because they’re creating the vision and memories of your life.

When shit is hard, commit to your mission.

I remember taking this photo in a hotel gym after our house had a massive fire during my peak week and I had to move into a hotel for weeks.

I was so upset about the fire but I was so grateful for the hotel as the gym was actually open whereas my Gym wasn’t at the time.

It felt like a weird way for the universe to remind me to find the silver linings.

Like, “hey there’s just been a major disaster that is going to mark the beginning of the worst year ever but look at all that your goals and commitment bring your life”. Maybe that sounds terrible but for the sake of not minimizing what i faced that year, It was a strange time but it was soooo empowering.

I look back on that time with so much gratitude because that whole prep through 2020 was one blow after the next but I remained present with myself and was there for myself and my goals that now I can look back with pride and empowerment.

I didn’t succumb to negativity or pressure or doubts.

I really don’t believe it’s possible to feel empowered by things we don’t experience or learn from or reflect on or are present to.

We have to be able to recognize our strengths to celebrate them and feel fulfilled and proud.

Today, I encourage you to identify ways you have been there for yourself and how that positively impacted you.

Celebrate your commitment and willingness to support yourself through it all.

Take that strength with you into the rest of the day💜🤗
