The Weight We Carry

We all carry invisible burdens—unspoken fears, old wounds, expectations we never asked for. These weights become so familiar that we forget we're carrying them at all. Acknowledging what you carry is the first step toward setting it down. You don't have to carry it alone.

Sometimes the heaviest things we carry aren't physical at all. They're the stories we tell ourselves about who we should be, the pain we've never processed, the love we never received. These invisible weights shape how we move through the world.

But here's what I want you to know: You don't have to carry everything forever. You can set things down. You can ask for help. You can choose to lighten your load, one small release at a time.

Healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about releasing what was never yours to carry in the first place. It's about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be.

If you're feeling the weight today, I see you. And I want you to know: reaching out for support isn't weakness—it's wisdom. It's recognizing that we were never meant to walk this path alone.
