Your Story
When the Life You Built No Longer Fits the Truth You Carry
You did everything right.
You were raised to excel.
Trained to succeed.
Expected to lead.
The schools, the internships, the polished CV…
all check.
And behind it, a quieter curriculum:
Don’t stray. Don’t falter. Don’t feel too much.
So you followed the script.
Built the life. Earned the respect.
And still… something’s missing.
The Dreams You Shelved…
Before the roles and responsibilities, there was something else.
A spark. A dream. A deeper pull.
Art. Science. Justice. Creation.
The thing that made your heart ache with yes.
But it wasn’t practical.
Wasn’t safe.
So you buried it.
Under approval. Achievement. Obligation.
And part of you went quiet too.
Corporate Cinderella:
IT’s NOT your Castle
On paper, you’ve made it.
The title. The wardrobe. A life others envy.
But inside?
You’re tired.
Of holding the weight.
Of proving your worth.
Of watching others — louder, less ethical — rise faster.
Of making it look effortless (the way you were trained).
And the idea that this might be it?
It scares the hell out of you.
Your Wakeup Call…
Sometimes it’s a slow unraveling.
Sometimes it’s a single moment.
Burnout. Betrayal. Or a crack in the mask —
like the senior leader at a gala who says:
“I know we’re on the Titanic.
But at least I’m going first class.”
(true story)
And you feel it in your bones:
This isn’t just disappointing. It’s soul-deep wrong.
What No One Sees — But You Feel Every Day
It’s not just the system.
It’s what you’ve carried into it.
A legacy of silence.
Family secrets tucked behind the success.
Addiction. Rage. Shame. Perfection.
You were taught not to speak of these things.
But now, the cost of silence feels too high.
The System Isn’t Broken. It’s Rigged
New job. New team. New boss.
Same old dysfunctional BS.
And you don’t fit (if you ever did…)
But it’s not you that’s broken.
It’s the game that’s rigged.
You were taught to play nice.
They were taught to play power..
Your Inner Split
You want to lead. To build. To shape what’s next.
But you’re afraid wanting power makes you one of them.
You still believe in integrity.
But those above you? Don’t walk it.
And that leaves you torn:
Between a system that betrays your values…
And a future that hasn’t fully arrived yet.
The Rage No One Talks About
Under the grace, the strategy, the over-functioning…
there’s rage.
Not petty anger.
A deep ancestral heat.
Because your truth has been silenced.
Your essence ignored.
Your power… controlled.
Not just in your life.
But for generations.
And the part of you that wants to burn it all down?
She’s not wrong.
She’s waking up.
This Is a Crossroad...
You could keep going.
Perform the part. Play it safe.
Or…
You could come home.
To your soul.
To your knowing.
To the life you haven’t lived — yet.
Not everyone says yes to this.
But if you’re still reading,
something in you already has.
