10 Signs You’re Silently Giving Away Your Power

I have never shared this before.

The first time I chose me was 8 years ago.

I nervously walked the beach, heart racing.

Should I really end a “happy enough” relationship to take a chance on someone I just met — because it feels right?

Shame, fear, doubt — all of it swirled in my head.

But then came another voice: You are safe. You are whole. You are worthy of exceptional love.

That was the first time I consciously let go of layers of conditioning and had the courage to listen to my heart.

For the first time, I allowed my thoughts and feelings to match my actions.

That’s what’s on the other side of healing.

Out of a sudden, everything made sense.

All the painful lessons led to this moment and helped me make the right decision — to finally stop giving my power away and start choosing what’s true for me.

But for years before that moment, I did the opposite.

Slowly, quietly, without realizing it — I gave my power away all the time.
