When You Wake Up Heavy: Starting Again After a Hard Day

Some mornings are just... heavier.
Today was one of those for me.

The alarm went off, but I just didn’t feel ready. Yesterday left me a little bruised emotionally—dealing with difficult people always takes more out of me than I expect. And if I’m being honest, I spent way too much energy replaying everything and second-guessing myself. 😞

But here’s what I know—and maybe you need to hear it too…

💛 Emotional Hangovers Are Real

When you're a heart-led person, you feel things deeply. It’s part of what makes you strong—but it can also leave you emotionally drained. And that’s okay.

✨ Gentle reminder: Try saying, “Of course I feel this way—yesterday was a lot.” instead of, “What’s wrong with me?”
Let’s give ourselves some grace for being human.

💛 The Inner Critic Can Be Loud

I caught mine whispering (okay, yelling) at me yesterday:
“You should’ve said more.”
“You were too sensitive.”
“You’re not cut out for this.”

Sound familiar?

Coaching shift: What if we talked to ourselves like we talk to our best friend? What would she say to you right now?

💛 Today Deserves a Fresh Page

Even if you’re not starting the day with sparkly motivation—it’s okay. You are starting. Even if it’s slow. Even if your heart is still tender.
Today isn’t a sequel to yesterday. It’s a new page. And you get to write it however you want. ✍️

Tiny wins count: Brush your teeth. Light a candle. Stretch for 30 seconds. Say something kind to yourself in the mirror. That is forward.

💛 You’re Not Alone

If getting started today felt hard, you’re not the only one. The world is heavy sometimes—but you’re doing better than you think.

I see you. I am you. And I want you to remember this:

You are allowed to reset. You are allowed to begin again. You are allowed to give yourself some love on the hard days.

Need support with this kind of reset?
I’d love to walk through it with you. Coaching is a safe space to untangle the emotional noise and come back to the truth of who you are. 💛
