Journey Coaching

If I’m being completely honest, I’m not okay.
Today feels… heavy. Messy. Raw.

I’m definitely sitting in my feelings-trying to let them be what they are without judging them, but it’s hard when there’s so much noise around me.

I’m surrounded by people I love, people who care, but each voice seems to pull me in a different direction:

• “Turn the other cheek.”
• “Stand up for yourself.”
• “Let go of the hate.”
• “Never forgive.”
• “It’s his loss.”
• “We need to protect him.”

It’s a constant contradiction. A storm of advice, all well-meaning, but none of it offering me peace.

The truth is-
My heart feels shattered.
My kindness feels stretched thin.
And my resilience, the thing I’ve always prided myself on, is starting to fracture.

I told someone yesterday:
“It’s hard to keep your chin up when it keeps getting hit.”
And that’s where I’m at.

Every time I take a step forward, it feels like rejection meets me on the other side.
Every time I choose vulnerability, it feels like silence answers back.

And still-I get up.
I show up.
But today, I’m not feeling it.

Not because I’m weak.
But because I’m human.
And this, right now, is what that feels like.

Here is just a little look into what it means to live openly – it is not always good days.

Sometimes it means just crawling back into bed.
