Starting Over…. (Again)
Let’s be real, starting over sounds all bold + brave, but it doesn’t always feel that way.
It feels like questioning everything.
It feels like, “Didn’t I already do this?”
It feels like, “Wait Lord… what?”
I’ve had to start over more times than I can count. Career shifts. Life pivots. Personal changes I didn’t ask for. And I wish I could tell you that each time felt boss-like or exciting, but it didn’t. Some of those “new beginnings” had me feeling crazy,, unqualified, and just plain tired of myself.
But here’s what I’ve learned:
Starting over doesn’t mean you messed up. It means you’re evolving.
And evolution is rarely cute..
Every time I’ve had to go back to the drawing board, personally or professionally, I’ve gain more wisdom, more clarity, and more courage than the time before. That doesn’t mean I had all the answers… but I showed up differently. And that matters.
So if you’re in a season where everything’s shifting (again), I feel you, + want you to know
You’re not broken. You’re building.
It might not look like much yet, but keep going. Give yourself some grace. You’re not behind.
You’re becoming. And that? That’s the type of glow up that we can only experience by going through the process! (Pun intended).
