SIMPLY ABUNDANCE

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “Who am I to have this?” Maybe it was when someone complimented you, when a big opportunity landed in your lap, or even when you eyed that cozy, slightly-too-expensive sweater that made you feel like the best version of yourself. If so, you’ve met one of the most sneaky saboteurs of happiness: low deservability.

There are times in life when just making it through the day feels like a victory. Bills, work, relationships, health challenges, grief, uncertainty, sometimes the weight of it all leaves us in a state of survival. We get up, go through the motions, check the boxes, and collapse into bed only to start again tomorrow. Survival mode is not a failure; it’s often a necessary response to hardship. It keeps us afloat when waters are rough.

We need to talk about habits. Not the cute kind (like your dog’s habit of giving you a paw when he wants a treat) or the gross kind (like biting your nails when nervous). I’m talking about the Big Life-Changing Habits, the ones productivity gurus promise will transform you into a millionaire with abs and a 5 am meditation ritual. You know the ones. Wake up at dawn, drink lemon water, journal your goals, do yoga, cold plunge, write a chapter of your book, read 10 pages of

Most of us have struggled at some point with the question: Am I being too selfish? Or am I giving too much of myself away? We live in a culture that often praises selflessness and shames selfishness. But real life is rarely that black and white. People-pleasers burn out. Helpers grow resentful. And those who dare to say no often carry a quiet burden of guilt.
