Hey, this is Francisca—and welcome to My Mid-Crisis L!FE ✨🌊

"Gratitude feels most impossible exactly when it's most important, because that's when it shows you what you really believe you deserve."

This week I sobbed in my car against a wall of disasters, hearing the quiet whisper: "that's what you get." From Sunday's confession about the voice of self-pity that quietly shapes reality, to Monday's neuroscience of gratitude lighting up the prefrontal cortex and calming the amygdala, to Thursday's practice of meeting your inner narrator and letting gratitude rise from truth instead of effort. The profound realization: you don't have to force the light - you just have to stop blocking it with lies about your worth.
