have you ever discovered what people really think of you, and it felt like someone pulled the rug out from under your feet? i found an old message thread where they casually dissected my quirks, my choices, all the parts of me i thought were safe. it's like they were laughing at a joke that i wasn't even in on... and then there was that moment when i thought, do they even see me? but then again, ...
i thought trusting the process meant something. then i watched this company everyone loves brag about their potential while i’m drowning in paperwork that feels heavier every day. as they shift their valuation, i realize i’m not just a number on a spreadsheet, im an afterthought in someone else's playbook. maybe believing in all these strangers was my biggest mistake. now i’m left waiting for some...

I stopped sharing my good news, not because I don’t have any, but because I feel like celebrating would just remind everyone that I’m stuck backstage while they shine.

if you are feeling overwhelmed right now, just know it is okay to take a step back and breathe. this moment will pass, and you are strong enough to keep moving forward, one small step at a time. #InnerStrength #SelfCare
