Just Appetizers

Growing up I was active and full of energy.

Looking back I would have been a candidate for medication.

Today I get the same burst of passion and energy, but it is a bit toned down.

In my twenties, married, having children, little sleep and loss of identity.

Waking up in my mid-thirties, I realized I was losing myself.

This 911 alert went off inside of me.

Panic filled my entire being as I reflected on who I was becoming.

There had to be a solution to all the madness that was taking place in me.

One day on my walk I faced the hard facts about myself.

This chick that was existing was really not living authentically in who she is.

Something had to change right away.

I cried the whole four-mile walk as tears stained my face and clothes, I could barely see.

It felt as if someone had died and it was me.

In what seemed like an eternity,  a life decision was made to live.

My plan was simple.

Start crashing everyone’s perception of me, by coming out and being authentic.

Yes!

Crash the image others had of me.

It was time to speak up about what I wanted, and who I am.

Sybil was on a mission to grow, love herself, and fight for her right to “BE.”

I had no idea how much fight it would take to simply walk out my life as me.

Daily I was smashing false ideas of who others wanted me to be.

Freedom was my motivator.

Living at the highest level of me was the greatest form of love I could give myself.

The girl inside of me that was screaming to get out, grew up to become an amazing woman who fights for others to be free.

My freedom opened a desire to teach others how to crash and smash false images others have about them

Today I celebrate my journey of love and freedom to abundantly living as only “ME.”
