The year is drawing to a close, and I'm here to tell you that despite everything, remember what you're capable of. Despite the falls, the painful choices, the relationships that shrunk you, the guilt that was pushed onto you. Despite the days when your voice disappeared, when your body felt heavy, when courage seemed like a distant luxury. Remember what you're capable of even when the world tries to convince you otherwise. Because it wasn't a lack of strength that held you back, it was other people's expectations, inherited fears, the roles you were taught to play to survive. None of that defines who you are. It only shows how much you had to protect yourself. Remembering what you're capable of isn't about inflating yourself, it's about recovering. It's about returning to your center after getting lost in so many manufactured versions designed to please. It's about hearing again that voice you thought had died. It's about recognizing that what brought you here wasn't luck, it was persistence. It was you. So, despite everything, remember. Remember the woman who has risen more times than she admits. Remember the courage you call exhaustion. Remember the strength that emerges every time the world underestimates you. And above all, remember this: you didn't come this far to forget about yourself now.
