One afternoon, I opened my inbox and saw an email titled “Small Update”.
It was a long, hand-written letter from a past client.
She told me about the things she achieved and how much she’d grown since our coaching. At the end of the letter, she wished me to continue using my gifts to uplift others.
The client was several years older than me.
Letters like that help me see an important truth: ultimately, it’s not about me.
It’s about the gifts I have to offer in this world. It’s about the people who need my gift. It’s about the lives I’m meant to touch.
Mary Oliver wrote in one of her poems:
“Love yourself. Then forget it. Then, love the world.”
That’s the great paradox, when you forget yourself, you are given back YourSelf. ✨
When you go beyond the layers of fear, insecurity, and doubts, you come back to your center where your true self, your true gifts reside.
