When your Inner voice starts acting different

When Your Inner Voice Starts Talking Different

You ever be so deep in a funk that your inner voice starts switching up on you?
Like one week it’s all “I got this. I’m capable. I’m confident.”
And the next it’s “Nothing’s going right. I can’t. I’m not good enough.”

It’s wild how fast the language in our heads can flip. I’ve noticed it happens to all of us, no matter how grounded we think we are. One small setback, one bad day, one moment of uncertainty... and suddenly the same mind that once hyped us up is now questioning everything.

The one word that always gets me is “never.”
We toss it around like it’s truth:
“I’ll never get it right.”
“I’ll never catch a break.”
“I’ll never be enough.”
But never is a dangerous exaggeration. It makes us forget that our highs and lows are just part of the same rhythm ... and both are temporary.

When we start seeing our blessings again, even the small ones, it’s like flipping the light back on. Gratitude reboots confidence. Perspective softens pressure. Suddenly, that inner voice starts speaking life again: “I can.” “I will.” “I’m capable.”

That’s where I am right now. I'm giving myself grace, letting the good feelings stick, and actually enjoying my highs. Because when the storm passes (and it always does), I want to be present enough to feel the sunshine again.

Right now, I’m choosing to enjoy this version of me... the one who remembers she’s still growing, still grateful, still capable.
