For so long, I searched for pieces of myself in other people. In relationships that almost felt right. In friendships that only loved the version of me that stayed small. In mentors, in family, in anyone who seemed to carry what I thought I was missing. I didn’t realise it at the time, but I was trying to feel whole, to belong, to be seen.
The truth I’ve come to know is this... you can’t find a part of yourself in somebody else. Not in their approval, not in their love, not in their presence. No matter how genuine or beautiful, it will never feel like enough until you see yourself as worthy. Healing begins when you stop handing others the map and start walking yourself home.
In this Love Note, I share the tender remembering that everything you’ve been searching for already lives inside you. This is a gentle invitation to pause, to breathe, and to find yourself again in the stillness, in the boundaries you hold, and in the love you give yourself. Because the person you’ve been waiting for… has always been you.
