Healing taught me that honesty pays. Speaking about your feelings won't lose you anything worth having. Setting boundaries won't scare off people who are meant to be in your life & being your true self won't cost you genuine relationships.
i think when you’re transitioning from being a people pleaser into someone with more boundaries can feel so weird. it's hard to tell if you’re being mean or if you’re actually just respecting your own feelings, because you’re so used to putting other people's feelings first
you’ll always struggle a little when you stand on your boundaries and demand respect. mercury retrograde in aries taught me how to stand up for more, it’s not easy. it’s takes so much self discipline, strength, and patience.
Men call women 'narcissists' or 'entitled' because patriarchy insists women be martyrs to be men so any woman with self-love, with boundaries, with dignity is too much for men who hope to exploit women.
When you begin stepping into your power you will realize that speaking up, setting boundaries and saying no is a part of self love. Not tolerating weird energy is growth.
