Are You Playing Small When You’re Meant for More?

I had a conversation this week that hit hard—one of those moments where you realize, wow, this is a thing so many women don’t even realize is holding them back.

And it made me think of you.

Tell me if this sounds familiar:

Press play & listen to this post!

✔️ You know you’re meant for more. You want to start that side hustle, move up in your career, or finally feel like you’re thriving instead of just surviving.
✔️ You’ve done the healing, you’re moving forward after your divorce, and you’re ready to build something new.
✔️ But when it’s time to actually put yourself out there—whether it’s speaking up, charging your worth, or making bold moves—you hesitate.

Suddenly, you overthink.
You question yourself.
You tell yourself, maybe I should wait until I’m more ready.
And before you know it, another day, another week, another year has passed—without taking action on the things that would truly change your life.

The Truth About Why You Stay Stuck

Most women think they need another strategy. A better plan. More motivation.
But what you actually need?

To feel safe taking up space.

Because deep down, there’s a part of you that still wonders…
🤍 Is it okay for me to take up space after everything I’ve been through?
🤍 What if people judge me?
🤍 What if I fail?
🤍 What if I succeed… and I don’t know how to handle it?

These questions—whether you realize it or not—are keeping you in limbo.

How to Start Showing Up for Yourself Again

So let’s start here:

📌 Where in your life are you playing small when you actually want more?
📌 What’s the story you’re telling yourself about why you can’t have it?
📌 What would it feel like to just let yourself step into it?

Not perfect. Not “ready.” Just… you.

Because here’s what I know: Your comeback starts the moment you decide you deserve one.
