Hey there,

Let’s start with a few questions: What if life never threw you a curveball? Never tripped you up? Never left you staring at broken pieces, wondering how to rebuild? 

At first glance, it sounds like a dream—a smooth, unbroken journey. But let’s be honest—how utterly tragic would that be?

Here's the truth: You were made to break.

Not by accident, but intentionally. Why? Because breaking isn’t the end—it’s the beginning. It’s where growth starts.  Think about your muscles in the gym: they grow not by staying comfortable. They grow because they’re pushed, stressed, and torn. And in healing those tears, they come back stronger. That’s you. That’s me. That’s life.

Let’s flip the script on breaking. Instead of fearing it, celebrate it.  There’s a reason people say, “The cracks are where the light gets in.” Those cracks? They’re proof you’re alive, you’re trying, and you’re growing. A crushed ego teaches humility. A failed plan sparks innovation. A heartbreak? It can open the door to a deeper love.

Yet our instinct is to avoid the breaking, isn’t it?  Perfection is seductive. It promises safety, admiration, and approval. But it’s a lie. Perfect is stagnant. Perfect keeps you in the same place, afraid to take risks, to fail, to grow. Show me someone chasing perfection, and I’ll show you someone afraid of what lies outside their comfort zone.

Nothing worth having comes from staying safe. Real beauty isn’t polished and untouchable. It’s messy, raw, and real. It’s scraped knees, hurt pride, and lessons learned the hard way. It’s failing—again and again—because every fall makes you stronger. Every time you rise from the ashes of what’s broken, you’re proving to yourself that you can endure. That you can grow. That you are limitless.

So, this week, let go of the illusion of perfection. Let go of the fear of breaking. Allow life to stretch you, challenge you, and remake you.

Remember: You were made to break—and that’s exactly why you’re unstoppable.

Until next week, keep building. Keep growing. Keep breaking. You’ve got this.

Continue to live inspired,
