Real stories. Real shifts. Real freedom.
What if true freedom means finally being free to be you?
Not the version that earns approval.
Not the one that makes everyone else comfortable.
But the you that is aligned with who God made you to be–now.
That’s what this part of the breakthrough revealed.
The tension that caught me off guard
Lately, I’ve felt so clear and aligned in this new chapter–life coaching, leading, teaching, guiding women into deep emotional and spiritual transformation.
And yet…
A quiet internal voice surfaced when someone close to me didn’t quite understand this new expression of me.
Even though I wasn’t shaken on the outside, my subconscious whispered:
“If there’s tension, I must’ve done something wrong.”
“If they don’t approve, maybe I’ve misstepped.”
“If I’m not who they expected, maybe I’m not enough.”
At its core?
“Maybe I’m bad.”
That message wasn’t loud but it had weight. It revealed a hidden belief I hadn’t realized was still active in the background.
A mirror moment
On the day these particular breakthroughs really came to light, I watched how I respond to my own children–even when there’s tension–and I saw it clearly:
I walk in love.
I don’t assign blame.
I don’t make a hard moment mean they’re bad or broken.
And I heard the Lord say:
“That’s how I walk with you.”
It hit deep.
Because even though I believed in God’s love… I hadn’t realized I was still questioning His posture toward me in moments of conflict or misunderstanding.
The shift
I no longer need to over-explain my path.
I don’t have to shrink or edit myself to make others more comfortable.
And I’m not here to prove anything.
God has already confirmed my impact.
When course correction is needed, I respond–not from shame, but from trust.
Emotional freedom looks like this:
- Walking in alignment even when others don’t understand.
- Staying soft and grounded without overcompensating.
- Letting go of the weight of someone else’s interpretation of your growth.
A question for you:
Where are you still editing yourself to feel more acceptable when God’s already given you permission to walk free?
