- I’m always making plans with myself and breaking them, and somewhere along the way I stopped trusting my own word
- The moment anything gets uncomfortable I bail
- I tell myself I’m capable but I don’t really believe it, and affirmations feel hollow
- I catch myself in the mirror and the scale and feel awful no matter the number, and I’m tired of my self-worth riding on how I look
- I catch myself hunched and folded-in, shoulders rounded like I’m trying to take up less space, and I notice I feel smaller and less sure inside when I’m carrying myself that way
