| Friday Reflections Who Could Be You, Better Than You? Don't Forget to Visit the FRIDAY REFLECTION ARCHIVE “Our Deepest Fear” by Marianne Williamson Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. If that poem resonated with you, then this email is meant for you. So let’s ask ourselves— what is holding us back? Who are we comparing ourselves to that makes us believe we aren’t enough? I have—and continue to—struggle with this. And maybe you have too. But this week, I found myself returning to this poem, and a YouTube video that echoed its message so beautifully. (I hope you take a few moments to watch it—it’s worth it.) It reminded me to ask again, gently and curiously: Who could be me, better than me? The answer, of course, is no one . Yet my feelings of shortcoming and limited worth can only come from me comparing myself to some illusion—some story of who I think I am supposed to be—rather than resting in the divinity of who I was created to be. This realization softened something inside me. It brought me back home to the truth that my light, your light, all of our light, was never meant to be measured—it was meant to be revealed. So let this reflection be a gentle reminder and an inspiration for you: ✨ You, exactly as you are, are exactly as you are meant to be. ✨ The fear that you feel before stepping into the totality of who you are isn’t the real barrier—it’s the awe your soul feels in realizing the vastness of your own light. The light that has existed within you this entire time. When we begin to understand that our “limitations” dissolve into lessons, and our insecurities begin to turn into invitations—to heal, to remember. Because every time you allow your authentic self to be seen, you become a mirror for someone else’s awakening. You remind others that the path toward wholeness isn’t about becoming more—it’s about remembering who you already are. So, this weekend, live a little louder in your truth, trust a little deeper in your divine timing, and let your presence be the quiet revolution that invites others to rise, too. xoxo, Sarah Join Me for this Full-Circle Moment!

“Our Deepest Fear” by Marianne Williamson
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
If that poem resonated with you, then this email is meant for you.
So let’s ask ourselves—what is holding us back?
Who are we comparing ourselves to that makes us believe we aren’t enough?
I have—and continue to—struggle with this. And maybe you have too.
But this week, I found myself returning to this poem, and a YouTube video that echoed its message so beautifully. (I hope you take a few moments to watch it—it’s worth it.)
It reminded me to ask again, gently and curiously:
Who could be me, better than me?
The answer, of course, is no one. Yet my feelings of shortcoming and limited worth can only come from me comparing myself to some illusion—some story of who I think I am supposed to be—rather than resting in the divinity of who I was created to be.
This realization softened something inside me. It brought me back home to the truth that my light, your light, all of our light, was never meant to be measured—it was meant to be revealed.
