I’ve been feeling defeated lately—especially financially—and yeah… it leaks straight into the emotions. I found myself crying while talking to a friend, listing off everything I’ve been trying to do to change the situation I’m in.
And then she stopped me.
She said, “Do you hear what you just said? You’re moving forward. You’re not stuck. You’re trying. You’re building.”
Oof. Right to the soul.
I forget to celebrate my wins because I’m so focused on what hasn’t worked yet. But the truth is—I haven’t given up. And that matters more than perfection, timelines, or comparison ever will.
My word of the year is RECLAIM.
I’ll be saying it a lot.
I’m creating a workshop around it.
And today, I reclaimed my perspective.
If you needed this reminder too:
You don’t have to “arrive” to be proud.
Progress counts. Effort counts.
Showing up on hard days counts.
Don’t give up.
You’re already doing more than you think. 💛
