Hi everyone! Been a bit quiet here. I’m trying something new and relating golf which I never thought I’d be able to bring into the topic of my February month which is self love. Have a read and let me know what you think!
Hey First name / friend,
Did you know that a simple (but radical) decision about my golf swing ended up being one of the biggest lessons in self-love?
Let me explain.
I’ve been playing golf since I was a kid, and for years, I was stuck at a 15 handicap—good, but not great. Nothing was really wrong, but I wasn’t improving either.
So in my late 20s, I decided: I wanted to be better.
I went to a golf coach, who gave me a choice:Do you want to tweak your current swing?
Or do you want to learn an entirely new one from scratch?
Let me tell you—if you’ve been playing golf for 15+ years in a certain way, changing your entire swing is a massive deal. It’s uncomfortable. It’s weird. It feels wrong.
But I said YES.
So we started from scratch. I relearned everything—how to hold the club, where to place my feet, how to move. I wasn’t even allowed to play on a real course for weeks—just practice swings, over and over again.
And it felt awful at first.
I doubted myself constantly. Was this a mistake? I was fine before. Why change?But I stuck with it. And guess what?
My handicap dropped to 10 (that’s a great thing by the way!).
I played the best golf of my life.
I walked onto the course with so much confidence.
So, what does this have to do with self-love?
Sometimes, we get comfortable doing what we’ve always done. Even if it’s not the best for us. Lets not settle for feeling just fine.
Maybe you’ve been telling yourself the same stories for years:I’m not good enough.
I don’t deserve that.
I’ll always struggle with this.
And maybe it feels weird to change that.
To speak kindly to yourself.
To set boundaries.
To truly believe you are worthy.But just like changing my golf swing, self-love takes practice.
It will feel uncomfortable at first.It may even feel wrong.But if you stick with it? Everything shifts.
So let’s start right now.
Say this to yourself: “I AM ENOUGH.”
Not just once, but all day long. Put it on sticky notes, your phone lock screen, your mirror—anywhere you’ll see it.And if you’re ready to make self-love a priority this month, hit reply and say: I AM ENOUGH.
Let’s step into this new version of you—together.
