What If It's Not Self - Sabotage?

What If It’s Not Self-Sabotage? πŸ€”πŸŒ€ So many of the women I work with come to me saying: “I just need to stop sabotaging myself.” “I know what I should do… but I never follow through.” “I always shrink when I’m about to rise.” πŸ’”πŸŒ± And while it looks like sabotage on the surface — missing the deadline, ghosting the opportunity, dimming the light — what’s actually happening is something far deeper… and far older. This isn’t laziness. This isn’t lack of willpower. This isn’t a mindset issue. 🚫🧠 This is loyalty. Loyalty to the unspoken rules of your family system. Loyalty to the women who weren’t allowed to speak, rise, rest, shine, or succeed. πŸ‘©‍πŸ‘§‍πŸ‘¦πŸ•―️ Loyalty to what kept you safe as a little girl in a world that didn’t feel safe. πŸ§ΈπŸ›‘️ And unless that loyalty is seen, acknowledged, and released, it will continue to override your highest intentions. Because your nervous system isn’t confused — it’s protecting you. πŸ§¬πŸ’« This is the work I do: Untangling the roots. Honouring what was. Liberating what wants to become. πŸŒΏπŸ•Š️ So if you’ve been beating yourself up for “getting in your own way” — take a breath, and ask yourself this: Who (or what) might I still be loyal to? 🀲❓ You’re not failing. You’re protecting something that once kept you safe. But there comes a time when the survival story has to give way to a new one. πŸ“–πŸ”₯ One where you get to rise — with your whole self intact. 🌹✨
