Feeling bogged down under the weight of expectations?
Sucks the energy right out of you, doesnโt it?
And the pressure can feel inescapable.

* โ Weโre born into lives we didnโt ask for.
* โ A familyโs legacy. Societyโs gaze.
* โ Each one is a weight.

* โ The voices in our heads.
* โ Always louder than the rest.

All that pressure is a choice.
* We choose to carry the weight.
* We choose to listen to the voices.
* But we can also choose to silence the noise.
Your strength to get up and chase your audacious goals comes from within.
Not from what others think or expect, but from what you know to be true about yourself.
(Spoiler alert: theyโre not thinking about you anyway; theyโve got their own problems!)
