Reinvention is vast. It can look like creating a new good habit, changing your hair color, or a bold declaration of bringing more happiness and joy in your life. It can also be the opening of your heart. There is something magical about saying yes to love.
Lately I have been a smitten kitten.
Being near this particular (we”ll call him Kitten) makes me feel inspired in ways that surprise me, like seeing myself through a brighter lens. His energy fuels my motivation and I feel like I’ve tapped into a part of myself that has been waiting for this very moment. He inspires me to care more about not only others, but also myself.
Love is many things: romance, the flutter in your heart, the smile on your face the second someone mentions his name, the courage to expand our lives to allow each other to reflect the best version of ourselves. Welcoming bliss, connection, and adventure in.
Trusting someone with your heart to me is one of the scariest things or even trusting myself equally frightening. In the past If I found myself falling, I’d take on more love interests, just in case. Vulnerability has always felt absurdly risky and wanted no part of it.
This is a whole different experience. This kitten reflects back the best version of me, and it is beautiful. I am letting go, and love is coming through. The excitement of simultaneously creating a relationship and letting one develop organically is going to be the Top Thriller of 2025.
We are building memories that are the perfect continuation to my reinvention journey. I promise to take you along for the ride.
