To her struggling with self-doubt

But I want you to know that there is hope. It’s not an easy road, and there are no quick fixes or easy solutions. But you can get through this. You can find a way to heal, to grow, to thrive.

Hmmm,

Do you know what it feels like to be drowning in your own thoughts, to be suffocated by a voice that tells you you’re not good enough, that you’ll never measure up? It’s a pain that’s hard to describe, a weight that drags you down into a darkness that seems never-ending. And yet, despite all of this, you keep going. You keep trying, you keep pushing, you keep searching for a way out.

Ajoke,

I see you. I see your struggle, your pain, your courage. I see the way you keep getting up every morning and facing the day, even when it feels like an uphill battle. I see the way you keep pushing yourself to do better, to be better, even when every step forward feels like a Herculean effort. And I want you to know that you are not alone.

Perhaps you’ve been told your whole life that you’re not good enough. Maybe you’ve experienced trauma or abuse that has left you feeling unworthy or broken. Maybe you’ve internalized the messages of a society that values beauty, success, and power above all else. Whatever the cause, the pain is real.

It’s not just a matter of feeling sad or disappointed. It’s a visceral ache that lodges itself deep in your chest, the feeling of being trapped inside your own mind, the feeling of sinking deeper into quicksand with every struggle. It’s the exhaustion of fighting a battle that seems never-ending, of being so tired that you can barely lift your head.

Omotola,

But I want you to know that there is hope. It’s not an easy road, and there are no quick fixes or easy solutions. But you can get through this. You can find a way to heal, to grow, to thrive. It starts with small steps, with little acts of self-love and self-care. It starts with acknowledging your pain and giving yourself permission to feel it. And it starts with believing in yourself, even when everything around you seems to be saying the opposite.

So keep going. Keep fighting. Keep believing. You are stronger than you know, and you are worthy of love and happiness. You are not alone, and you are not broken. You are beautiful, resilient, and capable of greatness. And even in the midst of the struggle, remember that you are enough, simply because you exist.
