Your Bold Yes Will Change Everything.
On a WhatsApp call with my life coach, she asked me a question she’s asked many times before: “What is your deepest desire? What do you truly want?”
Our coaching package had already ended, and yet—I still couldn’t answer.
Instead, I filled the call with stories of why I thought I didn’t deserve it. Why it felt impossible. Why I didn’t even believe that kind of life was available to me. The truth was, my deepest heart’s desire remained unspoken. Buried. And in its place, I kept surfacing reasons, excuses, and fears.
Looking back, I see it clearly now:
1. It was easier to stay a victim in the story than to take radical responsibility than to make bold choices and take aligned action toward what I truly desired.
2. I was afraid to close chapters. To walk away from people, habits, and familiar comforts that no longer aligned. Instead, I tried to force them to fit the vision, to bend the old life into the shape of the new.
Have you ever heard or said, “You don’t know how much I’ve sacrificed for you”?
3. I had to remember: owning all of who I am both the favorable and the messy, hidden parts, is the highest service I can give to life. When we limit ourselves, we limit what life can express through us.
4. Most of all, I realized this: what it really takes is one bold, internal YES. That YES becomes the compass. It aligns our actions, our choices, our energy. All required strength, wisdom, knowledge are already lives inside us. But we must align with it by letting go of what no longer fits. Beliefs, thoughts, habits, people. We let go and then we move forward, heart wide open.
And yup, I made it sound so easy but the real work is deep.
It’s a daily devotion to taking actions that align with your truth.
Most of the time, I just wanted to jump right into it itching to have it all now.
But then I realized: this very moment I’m living now… I once only dreamed of it. I used to wonder, doubt, and question if it was even possible. The life I have today the work that adds real value to others’ lives was once a wild, whispered wish in my journal. One of my heart’s deepest desires.
Back then, I thought it was crazy. I wasn’t even Wonder Woman. I barely knew what I wanted my life to look like.
But here I am living it.
So yes, we can dream and set goals. But it’s not just about what we aim for.
What we truly desire… is the transformation.
The becoming.
The experience of evolving into the version of ourselves who has it all.
