DAY OF POWER: “YOU ARE NOT WEAK"

There’s something heavy that lingers behind closed doors.

It hides in the spaces between texts left on read, in the late-night stares at the ceiling, and in the silence of smiling faces that are secretly breaking apart inside.

It’s the lie.

The lie that says:

• “You’re supposed to handle it all.”

• “You can’t let anyone see you struggling.”

• “Real men don’t cry.”

• “Strong women don’t fall apart.”

• “No one wants to hear your problems.”

• “If you need help, you’re weak.”

We’re here to shatter that lie into dust.

Let’s get one thing straight right now—asking for help does not make you weak.
In fact, it might be the strongest, bravest, most resilient thing you ever do.

Strength is often romanticized as silence and solitude. We’re told to “suck it up,” to “tough it out,” to “keep going” no matter what’s going on inside. But what happens when that silence starts to suffocate you? When the weight gets so heavy that even breathing feels like a task?

What then?

Then, we rewrite the narrative.
Then, we rise up together and declare with fire in our hearts and grit in our voice:

“I am not weak. I am human. I am powerful BECAUSE I choose to fight another day.”

There’s a difference between quitting and pausing. There’s a difference between crying and giving up.
There is unimaginable strength in admitting you’re not okay.
There is courage in speaking the truth.
There is unmatched bravery in facing what hurts with the intention to heal.

Whether you’re fighting anxiety, depression, addiction, loss, heartbreak, or just the brutal pace of life—you are NOT alone.

You are not invisible.
You are not broken.
You are not the darkness you feel.

Every single time you pulled yourself out of bed when you didn’t want to.
Every time you put on a brave face for the world when inside, everything was chaos.
Every time you showed up, even in pieces… You were a warrior.

And warriors? They get tired too. They bleed. They feel.
But they never lose the right to keep fighting.

“It’s okay to not be okay.”

Say it out loud.

Scream it if you need to.
Write it on your mirror.
Tattoo it in your heart.
And don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.

This world needs your story. Your scars. Your comeback.
So if you're reading this today and you're barely holding it together—hold on.

Not because it’ll magically get better in an instant, but because you are still here, and that means there’s still more story to write.

Fuel your fire.
Let it burn away the shame.
Let it ignite your next move.

You matter.
You are loved.
And you are allowed to ask for help.
