@kristen.aldridge : 🔥TRUTH BOMB🔥 . When I was in my 20s, I felt fearless. I would pursue the craziest ideas with reckless abandon. Say yes to everything. Take the biggest risks without even considering the consequences. I had no real career and no money at the time, but I had nothing to lose. A magical place to be. Whatever lit my soul on fire, I found a way to make it happen. But then, as the years passed, life happened. Rejection. Loss. Pain. More rejection. More pain. With every year came another layer of fear. Fear of losing a career I had worked so hard to build. Fear of never living up to my potential. Fear of not being enough. Fear of pretty much everything. I would lay awake at night wondering where the hell that girl went that I used to know. Was she ever coming back? It paralyzed me for years. . And then... a phone call two weeks ago. After pitching a project my production company has been working on, a top agent in the industry that I highly respect told me he had never seen anyone with more moxie. That he was impressed with my resourcefulness and ability to create something so extraordinary from the ground up. (*cue the alligator tears!*). I hung up the phone and first thought he was just totally bullshitting me. I’m not brave! And Moxie?! That’s not me. But then I realized... that fiery girl inside me never left. She was always there, she just sounds a little differently now. What used to be shouting from the rooftops with endless energy has become an internal, deep knowing that everything will be ok. It’s never easy, but it’s always worked out exactly how it’s supposed to. . A beautiful reminder that courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes it’s the quiet little voice at the end of the day saying, 'I will try again tomorrow.” For all my soul sisters out there, keep pushing. Don’t forget that tiny voice or that big roar. You are always enough 💗
