Hey, I'm sure many of us have been through a phase where we didn't even recognize ourselves anymore. Some might say yes, some might say no, and honestly, some might still be feeling that way today. It's totally fine to feel like that, trust me. We've all lost ourselves at some point, but the key is to want to find our way back to happiness and peace. You've got to want to improve, want to be happy. If you don't put in the effort, you'll remain stuck in the same spot. Despite having support and encouragement from others, it ultimately comes down to you wanting to make a change. When you make the decision to reclaim your peace and happiness, you'll gradually start to see that familiar face in the mirror again and regain your "P".
I have gone through a period of time and I feel honestly like I been at scratch more than once in my life (scratch= starting from the bottom). My journey to loosing my "P" was from my own self destruction and not believing in my own self worth. I have always been looked at as the pretty girl, spoiled, get's the man, and just on the outside looks like I had it all together. Well as we all know looks can be very deceiving. A lot of days I was unhappy with me because I always felt like I had to give too much of me to be accepted and this was primarily by men. I love, love, love the idea of being in love. Always wanted to get married and just want to live the fantasy Cinderella (my all time FAVE movie) happily ever after. I always felt like I should be treated like a princess, but my prince's (frog's) I was choosing didn't know how to be a real man and treat me the way I needed. Thing was I was constantly loosing myself trying to please a man. I used to always feel I had to give and give more of myself for the man to want me and love me, but in the end I built resentment and anger towards the man but as I got older and looked at myself I realized it's not the man I should be mad at but take a look in the mirror and you tell that person that you have to make some changes. This was when I realized I was loosing my "P". I was becoming a wife and I was only a girlfriend. I was giving up more and more of me to these men and was not getting anything in return. I have given countless amounts of money, made a damn fool of myself in public arguing, and just turning into the person that I did not like. Once I had my kid's it made things worst because I love my kids I do but I somedays did not like myself. I knew that things had to change.
So, over time and after many years, I figured out how to reclaim my "P". It hit me that I really gotta carve out some time for myself. I need to show myself some love, you know? Time that's all about what I want to do. Some days, I'm all about diving into a good book, other times I just need my own space. There are tons of ways to treat yourself, but the key is to make sure whatever you do is just for you, no one else. Even if it's just a quick 30 minutes to yourself, remember that's your time to do something that's all about you. Go you!
Hey everyone! So, next week we're gonna keep talking about how I was kinda losing myself, but then I started making changes, setting boundaries, and realizing my self-worth. But hey, before we dive into relationships, sex, and real love, you gotta get to know yourself, right? Understand why things happen and maybe figure out your part in it all. This week, I want you all to take some time for yourselves. Like seriously, at least 30 minutes of just 'me time'. Whether it's chilling in your car for an extra half-hour, taking a longer shower, reading a good book (PS: Kennedy Ryan's romance novels are my jam, check 'em out!), sipping on some wine, or having a smoke if that's your thing. Just do something for YOU. Sending lots of love to each and every one of you - you're all awesome and I appreciate you all so much!
Remember,
Self Care= Top Tier Love
