You hold it together all day - for everyone else.

For work.
For family.
For the outside world.

You smile. You function. You do what needs to be done.

and then...it hits you.

The quiet moments are the hardest.

Maybe it’s standing in the kitchen, realizing no one’s coming home.

Maybe it’s lying awake at night -

stuck between replaying the past and fearing the future.

Maybe it’s when someone asks,

“So what’s next for you?”

… and you have no answer.

So you try to stay busy.
You read the books.

Scroll for advice.

Tell yourself, "It’ll make sense eventually."

You keep going - hoping clarity will show up if you just try harder.

But deep down...

you feel stuck.

And it's not because you’re weak.

It's because you’ve spent years putting yourself last.

Your needs.

Your voice.

Your wants.

They've all been quietly pushed aside.

The toll shows up slowly.

Your confidence fades - without making a sound.
You second-guess everything.

Every choice feels heavier than it should.

You feel disconnected.

Emotionally tired.

Worn down from trying to hold it all together.

And this is the hardest part.

You don't trust yourself to move forward -

You have no idea what you want.

But standing still hurts so much.

And somewhere inside you, a quiet truth remains:

Something has to change.
