3 Reasons Not to Apolgize

Being yourself is not an easy task at all times. During the course of our lives, especially as women we are taught to apologize for almost everything we feel, want and do. Society, culture, and ignorance have created these stigmas over the years, sure we have come a long way but I find we are still apologizing for things we have a birthright to.

I have found three things, in particular, I will not apologize to anyone for, and I mean anyone.
My own self-worth, self-respect, and love for myself are vital to my existence on this planet being fulfilled. It is not selfish to put your needs first, nor is it selfish to say no when you mean no.  Putting others fist can drain your soul and leave you sapped of all positive energy. Now I am not saying to not be a loving woman and give. Everything needs balance.
  Apologizing for taking care of yourself is also extremely disempowering and allows others to have an invisible hold over you. When we apologize for our needs, we allow a dark, weak energy to enter our energy field and this teaches people how to treat us, it is a challenge to change learned behavior, but remember it takes 21 days to break a habit! And guess what?
You hold the power to do this.


These are my Three Reasons for Not Apologizing EVER...........


  1. Never apologize for changing your mind.  You have the right to change your mind about anything and owe No-One an explanation, I changed my mind id a complete answer.
  2. Never apologize for putting your needs first, you see we can not give to anyone if we are depleted physically and emotionally. As women, this can easily happen especially if you are a mom or a caregiver to others. Put yourself on the calendar and if you need time, take it!
  3. Never apologize for being you!  You are a unique beautiful soul and do not need to explain what and why you do things to anyone. If you  are met with negativity, you can say, " Thanks for your concern, I do not want to talk about it." End of conversation!

I am sure you can think up plenty of other reasons not to apologize because the list is pretty long, but remember the most important thing in all of this is "Stay in your Power" and love yourself unconditionally. I will not apologize for being me, the fucking awesome women that I am. And neither should you.



Love & Light

Stop Giving A Crap

Worrying about what other people think is a dead end. Other people's opinions of us do not matter in the reality of life, these misconceptions are learned behaviors which can be unlearned. Consuming our daily life around the approval, thoughts and wishes of others can fill your life and self worth .  Filling your head with only doubt. I have been guilty of giving a crap way too much in my life, because I was taught to worry about what people think, it had become a way of life and seemed like there was no other way. "Oh my, what will the neighbors think....?"  Through years of working on myself using efficient tools and techniques I am finally free, well, ( I occasionally fall off the wagon, but catch myself and get right back on track!)  By changing my thoughts and destructive pattern of not loving myself enough and not listening to my gut (aka-intuition.)  Sometimes stuff looks good on paper but is really challenging when you attempt to apply it to your daily...

I Matter

Yes! I said it, I don't care what you think of me. I don't care what you say about me either, and I will tell you why.  As many of us in our childhood I was conditioned to put other's first. The "people" mattered most of all, later I wondered who the fuck these people really were and what they had to do with my life anyway. What strangers, neighbors, relatives and just about everyone else said or thought had importance, my voice did not, what I felt was always pushed down.  My voice was stifled and my feelings ignored, now this is not a "poor me" story, but a story of growth.  As I healed and did immense work on myself I discovered "I" mattered, my voice mattered and my feelings mattered.  Simple gestures of self love towards myself helped me grow, here are a few I used: Scheduling myself for me time Eliminating toxic people from my circle Saying "NO" Doing only what brings me "Joy" and nothing out of obligation ...
