“If someone says you’re too much, they’re not your people.”
How many times have you held back your laugh, your tears, your truth — just to not overwhelm someone?
But your fullness is not a flaw.
You are expressive, emotional, intense, honest, deep — and it is beautiful.
You weren’t meant to be small. You were meant to be real. The right people won’t be overwhelmed — they’ll be grateful.
So take up your full width. Feel your whole joy. Grieve with all your depth. You are not too much. You are just enough for the life you’re meant to live.
And that life? It begins with you saying: “This is who I am.”
Breathe deeply. With each inhale, say: “I welcome my fullness.” With each exhale, say: “I release the shame of being big.”
Express one feeling today with full honesty — without shrinking or editing it for someone else’s comfort.

The right space will never ask you to be less.
