Women don't hear these things.

And they need to.

What a generation of women (finally) need to know:
You don't need to have a prepared speech or an excuse not to do something.

It's ok to say no.
Your intuition is strong. It's guiding you on how to stay safe and make the best decisions for you.

It's ok if those decisions don't make sense to everyone.
Your body can do amazing things: birth a child, store emotions, and tell you when to stay away from someone.

Your weight and size are the least interesting thing about you.
Your choice to not settle and to wait for a person who shares your values is courageous and brave.

Being single can mean high emotional intelligence.
Having children is definitely not for everyone.

You know more than anyone else on earth what's best for you.
Being assertive, direct, or driven will be seen by many as rude.

People's insecurities have nothing to do with you.
Your parents lived in a different world and might have a different life envisioned for you.

The greatest gift you can give them is taking your own path.
The betrayal, pain, and abuse still lives in your body and it's for no one else to decide if, how, or when you forgive.

You are the hero of your own story even if no one else acknowledges it.
Retweet or tag a woman to bring awareness.

The Truth About Healing:

Sometimes you don't want to be around anyone at all because the social norms of society seem fake or shallow.
A Truth About Healing:

As you become more authentic you'll fear more anxious. Anxiety can be a positive sign of growth and change.
A Truth About Healing:

You're going to let people down-- and that's ok because your role in life is not to please everyone but yourself.

It's hard to be the black sheep.

But it also gives you resilience, empathy, and the ability to break the cycle.

This Is For The Black Sheep:
(A THREAD🧵)
The black sheep is the member of the family who doesn't fit in. Who has wants different things, who thinks outside the box, and who is most likely to wake up from life on autopilot.
The black sheep might also be blamed for the issues with the family. They might believe they're broken, unworthy, or unloveable.

Do you have a father wound?

How your relationship with your father impacts you:
Our relationship with our father is one of our first relationships. How he interacts with you, meets (or does not your needs), and how he copes with life will greatly impact how you cope and view yourself.
Many fathers carry their own shame and generational trauma. Even the most well-meaning fathers will project these wounds onto their children.

Love is a series of behaviors, not a feeling.

Love means you...
Are fully committed to learning, growing, and becoming the best version of yourself so you can be there for someone else.
Forgive every day and choose to see the good in each other when it's easier to see the bad.

You were the "problem child."

The difficult one.

Here's what life was like for you:
You outwardly showed signs of pain and confusion. People looked at you as a child and blamed you for your pain. They labeled you with "behavioral issues" instead of asking: 'what's happening at home?' or 'what are you going through?'
You had siblings who were quiet and obedient because they were stuck a freeze state. Parents or other family members might look at these children as "good" making the "problem child" feel even more alienated.

Slowly, you developed shame around who you are.

Let's talk about the oldest daughter who became the protector of the family even though all she ever felt was unsafe...

A THREAD🧵
She knew even as a child her role was to be a "little adult." To hide how she felt, to ignore her own needs, and to keep it all together for everyone else around her.
Never getting to grieve the pain of having adults around her fail her, to not show up for her, and to put her in a position where her childhood wasn't play.

It was work.
