30 Days of Radical Honesty Journalling Challenge – Day 22: What Would It Look Like To Be Fully Honest With Myself?

Being fully honest with myself would mean confronting the one thing I’ve always been hesitant to name: my own power.

It would mean no more false modesty. No more softening my edges so others feel comfortable. No more shrinking myself into a quieter version of who I am. Because the truth—the one I keep locked away in the deeper corners of my knowing—is that I am big. I am capable. I am accomplished.

I am someone who dreams in full colour and executes with precision. I am someone who builds what others only imagine. I am someone who makes magic out of the mundane and then writes it into something that makes people cry, or feel seen, or feel something they forgot they could feel.

And the truth is, I’ve feared that bigness more than I’ve feared failure. Because what happens if I lean into it fully? What happens if I stop pretending I’m not as talented, as driven, as wise as I actually am? What happens if I take up the full space I was always meant to take up?

Being fully honest with myself would mean saying it out loud:

I am good at what I do.
I am building something incredible.
I am someone worth listening to.

And that terrifies me.

Because if I stop hiding behind humility, if I stop asking for permission, if I stop letting fear masquerade as caution—then I have to step into that spotlight. I have to own it. I have to trust that I won’t collapse under the weight of my own potential.

And I won’t. I know I won’t.

Being fully honest with myself would mean saying, I am already the woman I’ve always wanted to be. Not someday. Not when I hit the next milestone. Now.

That’s the truth. The one I’ve avoided. The one I’ve whispered. The one I am finally, fully ready to shout.

Peace, Love, and Inspiration,
