The best advice I’ve ever given is probably this: You are allowed to take up space. 

So many people spend their lives trying to shrink themselves—apologizing for who they are, making themselves smaller to fit into places they’ve outgrown, or holding back their dreams because they’re afraid of being “too much.” But the truth is, you were never meant to be less. You were meant to exist fully, to love deeply, to speak your truth, and to chase the things that set your soul on fire. 

You don’t need permission to be yourself. You don’t have to dim your light for anyone. Take up space, take risks, and take the chance on becoming everything you’re meant to be.
