Hey Beautiful Soul,
Welcome back to the Glow Up Guide Collective, your safe haven where growth, healing, and transformation embrace you through life's challenging moments. Today, as you find yourself navigating a season of transition, confusion, or quiet transformation, I want you to take a deep breath and remember: it's perfectly okay to let go of who you once were. Even if she was strong, even if she survived the darkest nights, she was necessary and brilliant, but it's time to step into who you're meant to be.
In our journey, we often cling to identities we've outgrown because they served us well in the past. Yet, becoming the person you're meant to be means grieving the version you once were. Have you ever felt like you were suffocating in a life that seemed fine on the outside? I have been there, holding onto a past that no longer fit, because I thought letting go would invalidate my struggles.
But when you whisper to yourself "I can’t keep doing this," you open the door to transformation. Letting go is not about forgetting the past; it's about releasing what no longer serves you. You're not betraying your past self; you're honoring her by choosing to heal and evolve.
Transitions are daunting because they often leave us feeling lost and uncomfortable. Here are some signs you're experiencing a shift:
- You feel disconnected from places or relationships that once grounded you
- There's a newfound irritation with patterns you previously normalized.
- You crave solitude and thoughtful reflection.
- Your intuition becomes a dominant voice over logic.
- You seek deeper connections and meaningful conversations.
Here's how to support your transformation journey:
- Write a Goodbye Letter to Your Old Self: She deserves closure, grace, and peace. Thank her for surviving and express your readiness to live fully.
- Create a Vision of Who You're Becoming: Focus on how you wish to feel, rather than on material achievements.
- Embrace the Sacred Middle: This metamorphosis is the cocoon you'll emerge from; don’t rush it. Let the emotions come and process them softly.
- Let Go of Needing to be Understood: You’re not here to fit into anyone’s mold; you’re here to be whole.
- Choose a Daily Anchor Habit: Whether it’s how you dress or speak to yourself, create rituals that align with who you’re becoming.
Practice soft forgiveness and write love letters to your past self if needed. Remember, you’re not starting over; you’re becoming more aligned with your true self.
Letting go isn't a singular event; it's an ongoing, deeply-rooted practice. There will be moments of doubt about your new identity, and that's perfectly fine. The in-between version of you is sacred—bridging the gap between performance and peace.
