Healthy but Hard Transitions

"The woman who once over-functioned to be loved is gone. She is rising now and listens to her body. She honors her limits. She trusts her intuition over anyone's expectations." - Molesey Bridgette, The Queen Code
To everyone who has stepped onto this path - male, female, CEO, cashier, stay‑at‑home parent, exhausted graduate student, retired veteran - anyone shifting from a life of people‑pleasing, self‑silencing, or running yourself ragged for everyone else to a life that is self‑honoring, soul‑feeding, and unmistakably your own:
Keep going.
Transitioning is awkward. It's messy, painful, and honest. It may leave scars, but be brave... those scars become a testament to your strength and the beauty of becoming.
You may watch a decade‑long friendships fade because you finally said “no.”
The cousin who always leaned on you for money might call you “selfish” when you set a boundary.
A co‑worker could label you “difficult” because you now voice real opinions in meetings or express you don't have the capacity to help them do their job.
You might swing between tearful rage and monk‑level calm - sometimes in the same afternoon, and that's okay. Feel it!
That wobble is part of building new emotional muscle. Let it be... allow your energy to flow
Lean into observation over reaction. Instead of, “Why am I still triggered?” try, “What part of me is asking to be heard?” Send love to the younger versions of you
the eight‑year‑old who learned to keep quiet to stay safe
the teenager who became the fixer to feel worthy
the twenty‑something who thought survival meant over‑giving
Invite them to heal and travel forward with you on this higher frequency.
Be proud.
Most people never leave the familiar discomfort of overaccommodation. You did. The limb may feel thin, but it’s strong enough. I won’t pretend it gets “easy” - I still discover pockets of unhealed energies and imprints when a random comment knocks the peace right out of me. Yet every day I’m less willing to trade my sanity, brilliance, or desires for ten minutes of someone else’s comfort.
My light stays on.
Courage isn’t a one‑off surge; it’s a daily dial you keep turning up. Decide you’re done feeling the old ache. Commit. Re‑commit tomorrow. That’s how new neural paths - and new realities form.
I believe in you. I’m walking it, too, and it is wildly worth it - one million percent.
If you find yourself somewhere in this process - wobbling between your old self and the one you’re becoming - know that you don’t have to do it all alone.
This kind of transformation isn’t just mental or emotional; it’s energetic. So much of what keeps us stuck lives beneath the surface - trapped emotions, unprocessed memories, and unconscious beliefs that still echo “I’m not enough” or “I have to earn love.” I offer space and support to help you release, cleanse, and clear those blocks - so you can feel lighter, more aligned, and fully in your power.
If you’re ready to shift, even if you don’t know where to start, I invite you to connect. Let’s make space for who you’re becoming.
