Growing up, I often felt like my words didn’t matter. Life at home could feel unpredictable, and the safest choice was often to stay quiet. That little girl inside me learned to listen, observe, and hold back and she carried that silence for many years.
But over time, I began to realize something, silence might have kept me safe then, but it couldn’t serve me forever. Healing, growth, and life itself require a voice. It took years, self-study, reflection, and small acts of courage, to slowly reclaim mine.
Now, sharing my story, helping others, and showing up authentically are ways I continue to practice that courage. Speaking up, even gently, is an act of freedom. And it’s a reminder that even when life teaches you to shrink, it’s always possible to grow again.
