Confession…
I feel uncomfortable celebrating myself. 🥴
I’m usually comfortable being behind the scenes.
Planning the celebration.
Supporting someone else.
Making sure everybody else feels special.
But when the attention shifts toward me, I don’t always know what to do with it.
Even during my birthday month, part of me wants to celebrate—and another part of me wants to quietly move along like it’s any other month. 😂
I’m realizing that learning to celebrate myself doesn’t make me self-centered.
It means allowing myself to receive some of the love, support, and appreciation I’m always willing to give to everyone else.
So this month, I’m challenging myself not to shrink, brush it off, or make the moment smaller just because the attention feels uncomfortable.
I’m going to let myself be celebrated.
Even if I’m a little awkward about it. 😂💚
