Sunday Thinking ― 6.29.25
"Faith and fear both demand you believe in something you cannot see. You choose."
The weekly Sunday Thinking newsletter is quick-hit content that aims to provide a booster shot to your thought process as you end and start your week.
"Taking care of yourself is looking in the mirror and being radically honest with yourself about whether your goals are yours or someone else's idea of success. It's finally freeing yourself from the grief you buried when you were 14. It's staying open in moments when life tries to get you to close. It's letting go of control―not because you don't care, but because you finally trust yourself. It's letting your courage be louder than your fear. It's breaking cycles that you've been carrying since childhood. It's letting your guard down and letting love in—and giving it out. It's unlearning that you need to be or do more to receive more. It's coming back home to the truth of who you are before the world told you who to be."

I. The Journey Back Home
The journey of coming home to yourself:
Pause and acknowledge
Reconnect with your emotions
Honor your needs
Embrace self-reflection
Build gentle habits
Forgive and let go
Celebrate your progress
Remember ― You are your own sacredly safe space
The journey back home isn't about reinventing who you are. It's about remembering.
Remembering that your emotions are valid. That slowing down is a sacred rebellion. That healing isn't linear ― it spirals.
You don't need to fix yourself. You need to return to yourself.
One gentle habit. One honest moment. And one brave choice at a time.

II. A Life That Feels Good
You have to disappear. You still go to work. You still show up. But you stop announcing every move and start building something that speaks for itself.
Disappearing means doing the work. It means doing the work in the dark.
It means building in private what you don’t need to prove in public. It means doing the work when no one’s watching.
You stop worrying about what people think and start valuing what you believe.
Because a life that looks good, or sounds good is nothing compared to a life that feels good.

III. The Power to Define Yourself
It's always been you. The source, the spark, the signal. It’s easy to misconstrue your value when the world doesn’t see what you want them to.
When what you’re putting in doesn’t match what you’re getting out.
When your endeavors feel like they’re drying up instead of blooming.
But you’re not responsible for anyone’s perceptions or misconceptions.
Not for maintaining an image that fits a facade they’ve curated.
Not for living up to expectations placed on you without your permission.
Your worthiness doesn’t fade because of what they think.
Only you have the power to dictate that. Remember that.

IV. Question
What would it look like to quietly return to yourself, on your own terms, without needing to prove your worth to the world?

V. This Week, I Will
Honor my wholeness.
Let it hurt. Feel it fully. Release it.
Protect my energy like it’s sacred.
Start putting things down and lightening my load.
Remember: I’m allowed to feel good now. No milestone is required.

The Last Words…
"You're ready, and I think you know it. And I think the only thing in the world that can stop you is you. And maybe in the past, you would've. Maybe in the past, your first instinct would've been to come up with a thousand excuses for why you couldn't. For why you shouldn't. For why it was a bad idea. But this time, it's different. This time, those excuses don't hold the same power over you. This time, every cell of your being knows it's time. You're already equipped with everything you need, and this entire universe is here to support you. Your heart knows the way forward. And you can sense it deep within your bones. This feeling that everything's changing. This inherent knowing. This undeniable understanding within. You've let go of what was to make space for what is—for what will be. For the magic that's about to unfold. The path ahead won't look like anything you've seen before, and I promise—you're ready for it."
