Today we're taking a break from our series on lying to explore the liberating concepts of faith, cord cutting, and not giving a fuck anymore—where true freedom lives when we're tired of explaining ourselves or hoping others will finally see us.

• Faith isn't the kind you might have been forced to accept growing up, but the messy, grounded faith that chooses you before knowing the outcome
• True faith means saying yes to alignment and no to disrespect, even when your voice shakes
• Cord cutting recognizes that some connections aren't connections—they're chains that keep us bound
• Release relationships that no longer serve you with love and finality, whether they're exes, expired friendships, or family members who make you feel small
• Not caring what people think isn't rebellion—it's self-preservation
• Remember that no one is really thinking about you as much as you believe; everyone is caught up in their own lives
• You don't need to explain your healing or justify your boundaries to anyone
• The most authentic parts of yourself are the best parts; the edited version is harder to maintain
• Care deeply about your peace, joy and purpose rather than others' opinions

Stay cute, stay loud, keep dancing even when everyone is watching.

We explore the concept of emotional masks and how they impact our authenticity, focusing on identifying which masks we wear and why we put them on in the first place.

• Continuing our journaling series "The Truth of it All" focusing on emotional honesty
• Examining common masks: the people pleaser, the fixer, and the overachiever
• Understanding what's beneath our masks and why we developed them
• Exploring what parts of ourselves never got a chance to be expressed
• Asking powerful questions like "Who are you when no one is clapping, needing or evaluating you?"
• Reflecting on how faith connects to embracing our authentic selves
• Acknowledging the challenge and beauty of transitioning to new versions of ourselves

Stay cute, stay loud, keep dancing, even when everyone is watching.

We're continuing our journaling series "The Truth of it All: A Journey into Emotional Honesty" by examining the lies we tell ourselves and how they impact our emotional wellbeing.

• Beginning with a three-minute journaling brain dump to clear our minds
• Exploring common self-deceptions like saying "I'm fine" when we're not
• Discussing how we minimize our feelings with phrases like "it's not that big of a deal"
• Understanding emotional gaslighting and how we question our own reality
• Examining how we often lie to ourselves more when seeking validation from others
• Identifying personal truths we avoid facing because they feel risky
• Sharing vulnerable examples of hard truths I'm currently facing myself
• Considering how self-honesty is a radical act of self-love

Next week we'll explore "Who are you without the mask?" as we continue our journey into emotional honesty. Stay cute, stay loud, keep dancing even when everyone is watching.
