I know how exhausting it can get.

To be held back by the opinions of others.
To try and keep everyone around you happy.
To say yes when you really want to say no, just so you wouldn’t upset anybody.

But let’s face it –

Did ‘people pleasing’ ever make you happy, fulfilled or high on life?

It definitely didn’t do it for me.
I only continued to upset myself and wear out my soul.

I found myself exhausted.
I found myself disappointed.
I found myself experiencing every negative emotion under the sun.

But I just wanted to be liked.
I just wanted to be accepted.
I just wanted to avoid being judged.

I was hiding under a mask.

I allowed other people’s opinions dictate and influence my decisions.

I was afraid to be my true self in case I would have looked silly.

It was always just easier to go with the crowd.
If was easier to conform.
It was easier to believe and do what the rest did.
It was easier to agree with others and to join in on the gossip.
And even worse – I believed all the gossip!

I was a master of avoiding external conflict.
But the deep internal conflict was killing my soul one day at a time.

And one day it hit me like a ton of bricks…

I wasn’t fulfilled doing what everyone else did.
I wasn’t fulfilled pretending to be someone I’m not.
I wasn’t fulfilled playing small.
I wasn’t fulfilled listening & participating in gossip.

SO WHAT DID I DO?

I did what I believe everyone on this earth should do for themselves –
I stopped following the crowd.
I stopped associating with gossipers.
I stopped doing what everyone else did.
I stopped believing everything people told me.
I stopped listening to the opinions of others.
I stopped spending time with energy draining people.
I stoped participating in low vibrational activities.
I stopped saying yes to things that felt out of alignment.

I started using my voice.
I started showing up as me.
I started making my own decisions.
I started doing what I wanted to do.
I started getting clear on what I wanted out of life.
I started tuning into myself and discovering my own truths and beliefs.
I started saying yes to only things that felt in alignment.
I started following my own dreams instead of the dream of the planet.
I started living my own life, UNAPOLOGETICALLY.

Did everyone around me like it?
…NO.

Did everyone accept the real me?
…NO.

Did people have an opinion?
…YES.

Did some people leave my life?
…YES. (Thank God!)

Guess what gorgeous?

PEOPLE WILL HAVE AN OPINION ABOUT YOU NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO. SO YOU MAY AS WELL START LIVING YOUR OWN LIFE & DO WHAT SETS YOUR SOUL ON FIRE.

By being your TRUE SELF you claim back your full power.

By being your TRUE SELF you eliminate the wrong people and allow the right people to find you.

By being your TRUE SELF is the only way that you can ever find deep sincere happiness and soul alignment.

People’s opinions is not truth, it’s a point of view.

Gossip is not truth, it’s a point of view.

A story that is told is not truth, it’s a point of view.

So isn’t it time to stop pretending & pleasing?

You already know it doesn’t serve your soul.
I don’t have to tell you that.

Now go and be YOU.
No-one does YOU like YOU.
Go and own it!

BE YOUR TRUE SELF – UNAPOLOGETICALLY!
