As we enter into a new week’s take a moment to pause—not to push harder but to reconnect with what actually matters.
In a world full of distractions, decisions, and societal expectations, it's easy to lose sight of our why. Our why is that inner compass guiding us toward the life we truly want. But here's the good news: it's always available to us, and when we reconnect with it, we realign with clarity, purpose, and peace.
I recently felt called to do an exercise I'd like to share with you. I’m not sure where the idea came from; my inner guidance simply said, “Do this.” So I did.
I drew a circle and wrote my name inside it. Within that circle, I included everything that reflects my why: my values, dreams, goals, and deepest desires. Then, I listed a few opportunities I’m currently considering and placed them in proximity to the circle, based on how aligned (or misaligned) they felt.
I asked myself: Does this move me closer to the life I want, or am I stretching beyond my truth to chase something that isn’t mine?
Sometimes, we reach for things because we think we should…even if they pull us further from our truth.
This simple visual helped me get honest with myself and might help you, too. Try it with decisions you're sitting with right now. Let your why be your filter.
Affirmation: I return to my why. I make aligned decisions that support the life I truly desire.
This week, let’s:
🧭 Pause before saying yes to anything that doesn't feel true.
🧭 Revisit what we're working toward and why it matters.
🧭 Trust that alignment > urgency, always.
You don't have to stretch yourself thin to chase what's already meant for you. Your why will always lead you home.
