There’s a version of you that came before this one. The one who didn’t listen to her intuition. Who stayed in relationships she knew weren’t right. Who kept her mouth shut to keep the peace. Who dimmed her light to make others comfortable. Who thought she had to be strong, unbothered, and bulletproof just to survive.

That woman? She deserves your love. Not your shame. Not your judgment. Not your silence.

She was doing her best with what she knew. With the patterns she hadn’t yet seen. With the pain she hadn’t yet named. With the wounds she carried like armour.

In this week’s episode, I speak to the importance of honouring her—not because we want to stay in her story—but because we need to thank her for getting us this far. And then, show her a better way.

It’s time to stop punishing the woman you used to be. It’s time to love her. Forgive her. And let her rest. She doesn’t need to run the show anymore. But she does need your compassion. Because without her, you wouldn’t be here.

And the woman you’re becoming? She’s watching how you treat the woman you once were. This one’s a deep one.
