SHE'S LEARNING TO TRUST THE QUIET AGAIN... There was a time she feared the quiet. Silence reminded her of everything she avoided the pain, the bruised places, the truth she kept pushing aside. But now the quiet feels different. Gentle. Like a space she can breathe in without proving anything to anyone. She's starting to trust herself again. To listen to the soft nudges she once ignored. To honour the woman she's becoming, not the woman she had to be to survive. She's learning to trust the quiet again. Because the quiet is where she hears the voice that's been waiting for her the longest her own.
