I never want anyone to look at me, at this brand, or at my real estate career and picture a perfect life. I am not perfect. I still struggle, more than people would ever imagine.
I have cried the majority of these last three months bringing Gifted Angels to life. Working day and night. Balancing real estate. Pushing myself in ways I have never pushed before. I am exhausted. And the only thing keeping me going right now is my why. My purpose fuels me more than motivation ever could.
I am not going to pretend I am always okay. I am not going to hold in my emotions anymore. I have learned to cry while I work at home, to feel everything and keep building anyway. Surprisingly, it works for me. I am so wired to succeed that my emotions do not distract me anymore. They just move through me and I keep going.
I still struggle to make time to go to the gym consistently. I still have days where I feel overwhelmed, days where I feel behind, days where I wonder if I am doing enough. I am human. And something I am trying to accept now is that life is not meant to be positive 24 hours a day.
I have been chasing perfection. Chasing the idea of healing every single part of my past and present at the same time. It is incredibly draining doing all the right things and still feeling depressed. Going to the gym. Eating better. Getting sleep. Working on myself. Staying disciplined. And still waking up feeling empty some days.
Things happen in life that you cannot control. Emotions come up that you cannot predict. And that is normal. I need to stop chasing something I will never get, a life without struggle.
I am learning that struggle does not mean failure. Struggle does not mean I am doing something wrong. Struggle is part of the path. It is part of becoming the person I am meant to be. It is part of creating something I believe in.
I want people to see the truth behind the scenes. I want them to know that success does not come from perfection. It comes from showing up when you are tired, when you are sad, when you are doubting yourself, when you are overwhelmed. It comes from choosing your purpose over your feelings in the moment.
I am still growing. I am still healing. I am still learning how to carry all of this. And if you are too, you are not alone.
