For so long, you have avoided your needs.
You’ve put others first, because you love them….and it’s a huge part of your role.
You’ve worn more hats than an entire baseball team.
Had to do lists that seem to never end.
Endured sleepless nights and early mornings.
Figured out the next move when there was no plan.
Through it all, you made it.
And you’re still making it, you badass.
But deep down you know, making it isn’t enough.
There’s a yearning inside of you.
A stirring in your belly and chest.
Asking for more.
This is the part of you that wants to see the world.
To truly live in it, beyond exhaustion and frustration.
This is the part of you that wants to be bold.
The fire inside of you that’s been simmering,
And is now ready to be fully ignited.
You want to live your life on your own terms.
To express yourself, be creative, and bring your dreams to fruition.
To be everything you ever wanted.
All while little hands bang on the bathroom door,
And stick their hands underneath it.
Just to show you an old crumpled sticker.
Found behind the refrigerator.
OH MAMA,
WE’VE GOT YOU.
