#HEYGRRRLFRENNNS<\/mark><\/em><\/em> You ever look back at an old photo and barely recognize the version of you staring back? Not because of the hair or the outfit, but because of everything you were holding that nobody else could see. Maybe she was smiling through burnout, performing confidence while second guessing every decision, or just trying to get through the week without crying in public. Felt<\/em>!<\/em> <\/mark><\/em><\/em>Maybe she kept going because she didn\u2019t think she had a choice. And maybe, just maybe, you\u2019ve spent more time judging that version of you than you have thanking her for surviving. The more we grow and heal, the easier it is to cringe at our past selves. We notice the people pleasing, the emotional reactivity, the way we overextended to feel needed or worthy. We try to distance ourselves from old patterns because we don\u2019t want to get stuck in them again. But healing isn\u2019t about becoming someone entirely new, it\u2019s about making peace with who we were when we didn\u2019t have the tools we have now. And that version of you made it possible for you to become the version reading this post right now.So, before we spend another summer trying to prove how evolved, unbothered, or rebranded we are, let\u2019s pause and hold space for the grrrl who got us here. The one who survived off vibes, playlists, and maybe even a little delulu. She might not have had boundaries or balance, but she had courage. And she deserves love too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we talk about healing, we often focus on the future<\/em>, as in who we\u2019re becoming, how to break cycles, what it looks like to be \u201cthat grrrl\u201d who journals, hydrates, and doesn\u2019t text back toxic people. Been there, done that<\/em><\/em><\/em>!<\/em><\/mark><\/em><\/em> But real healing also means looking backwards with compassion. It means choosing to understand the old you, not just correct her. For Black grrrls especially, survival mode is not a personality flaw. It\u2019s often a byproduct of navigating a world that doesn\u2019t always protect us, even when we\u2019re doing everything \u201cright.\u201d That fight-or-flight response, the urge to push through instead of pause, or the fear of seeming \u201ctoo emotional\u201d at work or in relationships? Those weren\u2019t random. They were strategies. Flawed, exhausting, and sometimes unhealthy, yes, but also deeply human. Once we start healing, it\u2019s easy to want to throw the whole past version of ourselves away. We want to forget the messy moments, the coping mechanisms that didn\u2019t serve us, or the patterns we now know better than to repeat. But that\u2019s not grace, that\u2019s perfectionism. Radical self-care means tending to the parts of you that feel unfinished, unloved, or unhealed, not just hiding them under vision boards and soft life aesthetics.<\/mark><\/strong> Healing isn\u2019t a rebrand, it\u2019s a reckoning. And summer is the perfect time for that kind of honest reflection. This month\u2019s blog is a love letter to your past self. Not a highlight reel, and definitely not a makeover. Just a gentle reminder that you were always worthy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Rules, Same You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes healing feels like you\u2019re running from your past self with a broom, trying to shoo her out of the room before someone sees her. You cringe at the decisions she made, the people she let back in, the ways she shrank or performed just to feel safe. But that version of you wasn\u2019t a mistake, and if you’re reading this right now? It worked. Survival mode kept you going, even if it didn\u2019t always look pretty. Even if it left behind a mess, you\u2019re still cleaning up. Even if you still flinch a little when someone asks, \u201cWhy didn\u2019t you just leave?\u201d or \u201cWhy did you let that happen?\u201d Respectfully… STFU!<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/font><\/em> <\/font><\/mark><\/em>Instead of trying to exile your old self, try getting curious. What did she need that she never got? What did she learn too early, or forget too soon? What was she afraid would happen if she stopped smiling, apologizing, and explaining? Sometimes the reason we can’t move forward is because a part of us still thinks survival is the safest bet. It’s like your body\u2019s still waiting for the next threat even when your life is finally starting to slow down. That\u2019s not dysfunction, it\u2019s your nervous system doing what it was trained to do. But now that you’re in a more stable place, you get to teach it something new. That\u2019s where radical self-care comes in. Not just the skincare nights and playlists, but the deep stuff like grace, compassion, and safety. When you revisit your past without shame, you stop trying to erase her and start understanding her. Maybe she didn\u2019t trust anyone because no one ever taught her what safety felt like. Maybe she ghosted people because she couldn\u2019t imagine being fully seen. Maybe she over-explained everything because she grew up in a world where her emotions were always \u201ctoo much.\u201d The more grace you give her, the less power those old stories have over you. You\u2019re not obligated to \u201chonor\u201d every bad decision or stay loyal to old versions of yourself out of guilt. But you are can remind yourself to be gentle with her and to thank her for doing her best with what she had. She might not have known how to ask for help or say no or choose herself first, but now you do.

Soft Doesn\u2019t Mean Stupid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the scariest parts of healing is realizing how much your identity was built around protecting yourself. You might have been the friend who never cried, the coworker who never said no, the partner who kept the peace even when it cost you everything. You were sharp, self-aware, quick to clock a red flag, and even quicker to pretend it didn\u2019t bother you. That edge helped you navigate a world that didn\u2019t offer many soft landings. But when the threat level starts to go down, that edge can start to feel less like armor and more like a cage. Letting yourself soften doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re slipping. It means your nervous system is learning to believe in safety again, and you\u2019re no longer confusing peace with boredom or quiet with danger. You can let someone show up for you without spiraling. You can say, \u201cThat hurt my feelings,\u201d without thinking it makes you weak. You can start trusting your own voice again, not because you\u2019re healed beyond harm, but because you finally believe you\u2019re worthy of being whole. But what no one talks about is that the shift can be uncomfortable. You might feel embarrassed when you cry at a commercial or annoyed when a small comment ruins your day. You might even grieve the version of you who used to \u201chandle anything\u201d without flinching. But emotional range isn\u2019t regression, it\u2019s regulation. It\u2019s your body learning it doesn\u2019t have to stay numb just to stay functional. You don\u2019t owe anyone the bulletproof version of you, especially when that performance was never sustainable. This kind of growth will have you rethinking everything. The friends you used to trauma bond with. The spaces where you felt invisible unless you were performing. The relationships where love looked like endurance. And in the process, you might start to see how little softness was ever modeled for you in the first place. It\u2019s not just about rewiring your reactions, it\u2019s about unlearning who you had to be in a world that confused survival with strength. So take your time. Some days you\u2019ll show up soft and open. Other days you\u2019ll need a hoodie, a playlist, and a solid cry in the car. Actually, most days.<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/mark><\/em> It\u2019s not linear, and it\u2019s not aesthetic, but it\u2019s yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t Hide, Heal!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a reason healing gets harder the more you try to curate it. When you spend so much energy trying to look okay, it gets really easy to confuse performance with progress. Maybe you\u2019re posting aesthetic routines, giving the \u201clife is good\u201d update in the group chat, and pretending you\u2019ve got closure when really, you\u2019re just tired of explaining the same heartbreak to people who stopped asking. But if you keep skipping over your real feelings for the sake of looking functional, you\u2019re not healing, you\u2019re hiding. Tough love, table for one?<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/mark><\/em> We\u2019re taught that healing is supposed to be pretty and that if we do it \u201cright,\u201d it\u2019ll be quiet and quick and polished enough to package. But real healing is raw. It\u2019s confusing and unglamorous and sometimes deeply inconvenient. It\u2019s crying at brunch. It\u2019s being triggered by something you thought you were over. It\u2019s getting better, and still feeling stuck. You don\u2019t have to rush to clean that up for anybody. Your mess is not a moral failure. The version of you that had to survive probably didn\u2019t have the time or tools to process anything in real time. You might still default to shutting down, brushing it off, or making a joke when something stings. But unlearning that isn\u2019t just about feeling your feelings, it\u2019s about letting them be seen. That means reaching out when you\u2019re not okay, setting boundaries even when your voice shakes, and letting yourself be witnessed in the middle, not just after the glow-up. And you don\u2019t have to explain your whole story to earn support. You\u2019re allowed to ask for space without over-apologizing. You\u2019re allowed to need help without a perfect reason. You\u2019re allowed to say, \u201cThis still hurts,\u201d without rushing to add, \u201cBut I\u2019m fine.\u201d You are not too much for being in process. You\u2019re just a grrrl getting real about what it takes to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, let your softness be a sign of strength. You are allowed to release the need to be strong all the time. You are allowed to pause before reacting. You are allowed to not know what comes next. And you are allowed to take up space as someone who is still learning how to be safe inside their own skin. Hot grrrl healing doesn\u2019t mean you have it all figured out, it means you\u2019re finally giving yourself permission to feel it all without fear of judgment. There will be moments when your old patterns call you back. When you feel the urge to people-please, to pretend, to go quiet. Let those moments be reminders, not roadblocks. You are not regressing, you are reckoning. And every time you choose to stay present instead of disappearing, you\u2019re proving that peace is possible, even in progress. So keep going, even if it\u2019s messy. Keep choosing yourself, even if it\u2019s unfamiliar. Keep holding space for your joy, your rage, your grief, and your hope. You are worthy of a life that feels like safety, not survival. And you don\u2019t have to earn it by being perfect, you just have to believe you deserve more than what hurt you. Now go and be great you lil grrrly pop! TTYL!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
