Have you ever told yourself it's too late for me? Here's what I've learned. Too late is a feeling, not a fact. And that wanting something just for you feels selfish, like who do you think you are to want it now. I know that one well. Here's the thing, you are so far from the only one sitting with that. So many women were taught to want quietly, or to just quit wanting altogether, and nobody ever told them any different. If that's you, you're in the right place. So let me ask you, what's the one thing you've told yourself it's too late for? Name it in the comments. You don't have to know what to do about it yet. Naming it out loud is the first move.

Tell me something. Where are you right now, really? Not the how are you, fine thanks answer we all give, the true one. What's been rattling around in your head lately, the one you keep pushing off to next week, or the one you haven't said out loud to a single soul? Tell me where you're at today. I can go first if that makes it easier :-). Here I go....some nights, when the house is quiet and I can't sleep anyway, this little voice creeps in and asks who do you think you are, starting something brand new at 69. Shouldn't you have done this years ago? I don't always have a comeback for it. But the truth is, I don't think I could have done this a long time ago, it took me this long to feel secure enough to use my voice for me instead of everybody else. Some nights I remind myself the whole reason I'm building this place is because I finally stopped letting that old voice win. Yes, some days it still feels a little late, but I've stopped needing it not to be. After all I can't go back, I can only go forward and forward feels good. I don't have it all figured out, I'm building it as I go, right alongside you. So that's mine. Your turn :-)
