EP353: You Are Allowed to Take Up Space
You Are Allowed to Take Up Space
Welcome back to Your Quiet Moment. In today's episode, we explore the quiet violence of shrinking yourself to fit other people's comfort — and the courage it takes to reclaim the space that was always yours.
You have been making yourself smaller for so long that you forgot it was a choice. But that smallness was never yours to carry. You are allowed to take up emotional space, conversational space, creative space — to be fully, messily, unapologetically you.
AFFIRMATIONS:
I am allowed to take up space.
My needs matter and are worthy of being seen.
I do not have to shrink to make others comfortable.
My voice deserves to take up the room it needs.
I am not too much. I have just been surrounded by too little.
I release the versions of myself that were built to make others comfortable.
I honor my own size — emotionally, mentally, physically.
I am allowed to be fully, messily, unapologetically me.
The people who matter will celebrate my fullness, not resent it.
I take up space because I exist, and that is reason enough.
