There is Liberty in Our Language
A single word can be the difference between a wish and a world.
We are spellcasters by design.
Every word we speak is a declaration.
Every sentence a summoning.
This is the sacred architecture of reality-building.
And yet—
I’ve caught myself playing small with my language.
Saying things like “I’ll try” or “someday”, whispering “should” or “might” as if I’m afraid of what would happen if I just decided.
As if the wild unknown wasn’t made for me.
The truth? I’m not built for shallow waters.
I was born to leap—to cannonball into the deep end, to build wings of riotous color on the way down, to write my future in present-tense poetry and bold declarations.
Because here’s what I know:
Our subconscious hears everything—and believes all of it.
Every time we say “I can’t,”
we etch that belief into our bones.
But when we speak the truth in advance—
when we declare, “I am ready,”
“It is mine,”
“This or better, thank you more please…”
we begin becoming the version of ourselves who can have it, hold it, and expand it.
This is more than mindset.
This is liberation.
This is choosing to architect your future with intention instead of hesitation.
This is you, reclaiming your voice as your first act of rebellion.
You want proof?
Working with my coach earlier this year, I shared that I wanted to be on more podcasts this year—not just for reach or strategy, but because I wanted to feel desired, sought after, magnetic.
So I tuned into those feelings in a short self-guided meditation.
Let myself feel it.
No begging, no forcing. Just being. Just naming.
The very next morning I woke up to an email:
“I heard you on another podcast. My people need your message.
Would you be open to guesting on mine?”
Magic? Maybe.
Energetics? Absolutely.
Language? Definitely.
Be mindful of your words today.
Not because you need to be perfect—but because your language is a looking glass.
It shows you who you believe you are. And if you’re ready to believe in someone more powerful, more sovereign, more you—start by speaking as that version of you
I promise they are already listening.
P.S.
What are you calling in with your words right now?
Where have you been whispering when your soul is begging for a shout?
Come tell me.
Leave a comment or hit reply—this is a space for your truth to be held, witnessed, and celebrated.
