And The Award Goes To...
10 awards that do not exist:
đ The âLooked Like You Had It Togetherâ Award â Instagram is not real life. No one has it all together.
đ The âAlways Productiveâ Award â Youâre allowed to rest. Rest is productive. Naps are spiritual.
đ The âDidnât Ruffle Any Feathersâ Award â Being honest, setting boundaries, or standing up for yourself? Thatâs not being âtoo much.â Thatâs being real.
đ The âMost Perfectâ Award â Perfection isnât real, and no oneâs mailing you a gold star for burning yourself out chasing it.
đ The âNever Said Noâ Award â Being available 24/7 isnât a badge of honorâitâs a recipe for exhaustion.
đ The âTook On Everyoneâs Problemsâ Award â You are not a dumping ground for drama. Protect your peace.
đ The âDidnât Ask for Helpâ Award â Struggling in silence gets no applause. Ask for help. Thatâs strength, not weakness.
đ The âAlways Put Others Firstâ Award â You matter too. You can care for others without erasing yourself.
đ The âNever Made a Mistakeâ Award â Mistakes = growth. No mistake, no lesson. No lesson, no progress.
đ The âNever Rested, Never Relaxedâ Award â If you donât chill, your body will make you chill. Trust me.
Letâs stop chasing awards no oneâs giving outâand start honoring ourselves for the real wins: being kind, setting boundaries, growing through the mess, and showing up as we are.
Youâre already doing great.
