You are limiting yourself by living to the expectations of others.
It does not serve you to push your needs and desires aside to appease those you love. It is time to stand in your truth and challenge anyone who expects you to be anything but authentic. Value yourself enough to rise up through judgement and conditioned beliefs to live a fulfilling life of purpose.
Make choices based on your needs and desires rather than on others’. Their opinions may stem from their own regrets, experiences, and failures but won’t necessarily relate to your journey. Relationships may be tested, but you cannot continue living a lie.
