The version of myself I’m growing into: someone who just does the thing before she’s ready and figures it out after
The version I’m letting go of: someone who had to think everything through ten times, still wasn’t sure, and then thought about it five more times just to be safe
The version I’m growing into: knows that the most interesting parts of her are the ones that don’t fit neatly into a box
The version I’m letting go of: kept those parts hidden like they were something to be embarrassed about and had been since she was a kid getting bullied for being “too much”
The version I’m growing into: shares stuff that scares her and somehow feels more like herself every time she does
The version I’m letting go of: needed everyone to be okay with it first
The version I’m growing into: has a podcast episode up that is not her best work and is leaving it there on purpose
The version I’m letting go of: would have deleted it at 2 am and pretended it never happened
The version I’m growing into: posts about basically everything because that’s just genuinely who she is
The version I’m letting go of: thought she needed to pick a lane or nobody would take her seriously
The version I’m growing into: makes content based on what’s actually going on in her life and what her people are asking for
The version I’m letting go of: was basically writing for a Google search instead of for a real human being
The version I’m growing into: is working on original music and not just thinking about it alone in her bedroom like a teenager
The version I’m letting go of: needed permission she was never going to get anyway
The version I’m growing into: feels more alive than she has since she was a kid, before she learned to make herself smaller
The version I’m letting go of: being really good at making myself smaller
Both of them are me. One of them is just a lot more fun.
Whatever your thing is, I promise it’s worth doing.
Just start! 💖
