We overcomplicate everything in life. We think being ourselves requires effort, strategies, transformation.
But what if it’s actually simple?
It’s about being quiet. Not screaming for attention. Not trying to say something. It just is.
Authentic. Reflecting who I am without performing. Not demanding to be seen. Just comfortable being.
And that’s the point.
Being close to yourself isn’t about doing more. It’s about stripping away everything that isn’t you.
The noise. The performance. The need to impress.
What’s left is simple. Real. Yours.
I will share with you some questions from my coaching practice that bring you back to simplicity:
❔What do I feel right now, underneath everything?
❔ What would I choose if no one was watching?
❔ What does “just being” feel like?
❔ What does my soul need right now, not my ego?
❔ What would I choose if no one watched?
Paris. A few minutes after the show — the makeup still untouched from the runway, that feeling somewhere between the euphoria of the moment and returning to reality.
