I stopped holding back and this happened 🥺

Yesterday I told you it was a heavy day. Today, I get to tell you the other side of that. My wife and I have been going to this kickboxing gym for just 30 minutes, in and out and we kept having these normal conversations with the owner. Life, work, random stuff. Somehow, my story came up. What I have been through, the work I have done, losing my brother, carrying that for 24 years and how that grip is not the same anymore. Then she mentioned her daughter and that she had been looking for something for her... therapists, different options, trying to figure out what the right fit was. She already knew what I do. She knew I was not a therapist. She knew I was an Enlifted coach, that I help people work through the things that have been holding them back. We had talked about it. She had watched me show up, week after week, heard my story, seen the work in real time. And something in me just knew. So I told her: "I can help your daughter." No overthinking. No hesitation. It just came out... confident, clear, right in the flow of the conversation. And old me? Would have never said that. Would have stayed quiet, played small, second-guessed everything until the moment passed. But this time I trusted it. A few days later, she came back and said yes. And just like that, I signed my first local client. I am still sitting here like... what just happened? But here is what I know: That opportunity was always there. I just was not. Not confident enough, not ready enough, not willing enough to say it out loud. The second I became someone who would speak up anyway... everything changed. So if you are waiting to feel ready, feel confident, feel good enough before you go for it, you will wait forever because the shift does not happen before you act. It happens because you do. There is something in you that you are holding back right now. Something you know you could say, do, or go after. But you are staying quiet. Stop. Say it. Go for it. Because the life you want is on the other side of that moment. PROUD OF YOU 💙 Walking with you, Leasha |

It's 7-something on a Sunday night. I know where your head is right now. Because I've been there, staring at the ceiling or the screen, watching Sunday slip into Monday, feeling that tightness in the chest that has nothing to do with what's actually happening and everything to do with what's coming. The to-do list is already writing itself in your head. The week hasn't started and you're already tired. And somewhere in that spiral, a sentence starts looping: "I'll try to make this week...
I did something recently that scared the hell out of me. I deleted over 300 people from this email list. Not by accident. A deliberate, eyes-open, deep-breath-first decision. I went from 706+ subscribers to around 402. In minutes. And the second I did it, I felt something I haven't felt in a while. I exhaled. Like, actually exhaled. The kind of breath that comes from somewhere below your chest when you finally stop holding on to something that wasn't working. Here's the thing I want you to...
Nobody warns you about this part of healing... You start doing the work of healing. You start coming back to yourself and you expect the people around you to celebrate that. Sometimes they do not. Sometimes they pull away. Sometimes you pull away. Sometimes a friendship you thought would last forever just ends. And you are left standing there wondering what you did wrong. You did not do anything wrong. Growth costs you people. Not because you became someone unrecognizable. But because the...
