Dear Younger Me,
Be gentle on yourself. Everything you've dreamed of. You're making it happen. You did this!! I'm so proud of you for staying.
You have a husband who loves you dearly through thick and thin. A partner in the chaos of life. Your rock. No, it's not easy. But you're both the most stubborn people in the world. Heal together. For him and your littles.
You have a beautiful ginger boy who is your entire world. And wow is he spicy, just like you. He's got a fire inside and he is so confident! You should be too, mama. You'll get there.
He has already healed you in more ways than you could have ever imagined. And he is inspiring you to help others heal too. Through your words. You're writing again, mama, because of him.
The family you grew up with, you're all healing. Slowly. Learning and growing. Laughing about the past. Focus on those happy memories. What a beautiful relationship you share.
And the love they hold for your little one. Wow. Just wow. It's magical to watch.
Your business, or should I say businesses, are blooming. Growth takes time and you know that now. You've always been a hard worker. Keep taking risks. Keep trying new things. Keep learning and adapting. Never lose hope.
Your passion is reignited. Write, girl, write. Share your story. Share your knowledge. You're not alone. You never were alone. Talk about it.
Fake it till you make it. Be confident. Stand up for what's right. Educate others. Know that some people are closed minded, it's not a reflection on you. Know better and do better. Continue questioning everything and research. That's how we grow. That's how we know.
But most importantly, stay. When those dark days creep back in, fight. Fight for him. And fight to stay. Always. Better days are ahead. It's worth it. I promise.
Love,
Yourself
