Not everyone will hear you the first time you express what you want or need. And when people keep overstepping, it’s usually because your boundaries weren’t firm enough.
The reality is that , the moment you set those boundaries with strength, some people might get upset. They might justify their behavior. They might even try to make you feel guilty. But that’s not your burden to carry. That’s on them.
Your responsibility is to listen to yourself. To trust your intuition. To know who you can safely open up to, and who you can’t. Not everyone is ready for your truth, and that’s okay.
What matters is that you:
*Keep setting your boundaries.
*Keep choosing yourself.
*Keep standing in your authenticity.
*Keep loving yourself, no matter what.
Because when you do, you set yourself free. And nothing is more powerful than that.
