Self-Worth & Empowerment

We’re taught to believe that staying small is safe, even virtuous. But playing small doesn’t protect your light; it buries it. What if hiding isn’t humility, but fear in disguise? And what if choosing visibility is the most generous thing you can do?

For years, I believed my worth was something I had to earn through achievement, perfection, or proving myself. I thought if I just fixed enough things about myself, I’d finally feel whole. But I’ve come to realise: I was never broken to begin with. This post is a reminder that you are not a problem to be solved either. You’re a person to be loved for who you are.
