The Ache of Outgrowing What Once Fit – Whispers from the Edge – Week 2
There’s a particular kind of ache that doesn’t come from heartbreak or loss.
It comes from becoming.
From waking up one morning and realising that the version of your life you once fought for…
no longer feels like it was made for you.
Nothing’s broken.
Nothing dramatic has happened.
It’s just… something’s shifted.
You feel it in the body first.
A tightness. A restlessness.
A low hum of “this isn’t quite it anymore.”
You still walk the same halls.
Hold the same relationships.
Do the work that once lit you up.
But deep in your bones, you know:
You’ve changed.
And now the shape of your soul doesn’t quite fit the container it used to call home.
This isn’t rejection.
It’s not ungratefulness.
And It’s not ego.
It’s evolution.
Your soul is writing a new tattoo across your skin—
one you can’t quite read yet, but you know it’s there.
The message is forming.
The ink is still wet.
And every choice you make now is a line in that sacred design.
This is the liminal space.
The edge between what was and what’s next.
It’s uncomfortable.
It’s emotional.
And it’s exactly where the Sacred Rebel is born.
Because choosing to stay true to your own becoming—even when it means letting go of roles, rhythms, or relationships that no longer align—isn’t selfish.
It’s holy.
You are not unravelling.
You’re emerging.
So breathe. Trust. And don’t rush the words on your soul.
They are coming.
And when you’re ready to speak them—they will land like truth in the hearts of others.
