🪞Mirror Me Blog “I’m Not Asking for Permission Anymore” Theme: Liberation | Reclaiming Voice | Boundaries
🔥 From People-Pleasing to Personal Power
I used to wait for approval.
I softened my edges to fit into rooms that didn’t even see me.
I explained myself to people who weren’t listening.
I said yes when my soul screamed no.
But not anymore.
I’m not asking for permission to exist.
I am the permission.
I am the yes.
I am the boundary.
I am the damn door.
And from this day forward, I walk through it.
💐 This August, I choose:
Saying no without apology
Living boldly without shrinking
Honoring my voice even if it shakes
This month, I return to bold truth.
To clarity.
To me.
✍🏾 Mirror Prompt: “What If I Said Yes to Myself?”
Where am I still dimming my truth to avoid conflict?
What does unapologetic expression look like for me today?
Who taught me I had to earn love by playing small?
“I am not here to perform. I am here to be.
I say yes to myself. Loudly. Fully. Now.”
