The Quietest Part of Me Is the Strongest

What’s your favorite thing about yourself?

It’s that I believe in myself.

Not in a loud, chest-thumping kind of way. It’s not about being the most confident in the room or always knowing the right thing to say. It’s the kind of belief that stays when no one’s looking. When I’m sidelined at work. When I write something honest and raw and the algorithm ghosts me. When it feels like I’m putting so much of myself into the world and getting silence in return.

It’s still showing up. Still writing. Still trusting that I can create the future I want. That my words will find the people who need them. That I’m not here to be picked, I am here to build something of my own.

It’s a belief that lives quietly under the doubt. It doesn’t always shout, but it doesn’t leave, either. It’s what gets me up in the morning. It’s what helps me trust my gut, try again, speak up, and carry on.

And that’s my favourite thing about myself. That no matter how many times I’m made to question my worth – I still believe in it. I still believe in me.
