Your voice is your confidence
Every time you speak up when it matters, hold your ground respectfully, or express a need clearly, you send yourself a message that you are worth being heard.
Follow your soul. It knows the way.
Every time you speak up when it matters, hold your ground respectfully, or express a need clearly, you send yourself a message that you are worth being heard.
When your sense of self depends on external feedback, you give away control over how you feel about yourself.
I don’t think this is about blame as much as it is about awareness.
As long as everyone else is responsible for your toxic coping mechanisms, you won’t empower yourself to get up and change them.
