Lisa

I have spent the week, working on #lisa. Y’all...this has probably been the HARDEST thing I’ve ever done for myself (because I don’t normally do things for myself) but SO worth it. I think as moms, wives, daughters, and women in general, we put others first so often...that we just lose ourselves. It’s not a sudden thing that happens, it’s gradual...very gradual. We forget about the things we use to like, the things that made us laugh, and the girl who had her own dreams. That’s exactly what happened to me. I have been worried about other people for so long that I didn’t even know who Lisa was anymore. This impacted every single relationship I have. As I prepare to leave the #rawempowermentretreat, I am leaving a slightly different Lisa. I will always have a servant’s heart but I’m learning how to manage that in a way that doesn’t allow me to lose myself in the process. I’m finally realizing that if I am a version of myself, that everyone else molds me to be, I can’t be good to anyone, especially myself. I look forward to learning even more about my TRUE self in the days, weeks, months, and years to come. I am REALLY happy with the flower that I am blossoming to be and ya know what? I kinda like me.
