Following the realization of soar as my first word of the year, the word "ROAR" also became significant to me. Roar represents living authentically and unapologetically, embracing who I truly am without shame or fear. I am done with living a small and limited life, it's time for me to truly embrace my true self and let it shine.

So my second word of the year is "roar." To me, this word represents not only the idea of embracing my true self and living as authentically as possible. But It's also a reminder to be unapologetically me in every situation, and to bring my full self to every space I am in.
The word "roar" evokes images of strength, power, and confidence. It's a reminder that I am capable of so much more than I ever thought possible. It's a call to action to be bold, to speak my truth and to live my life on my own terms.
It's easy to fall into the trap of hiding ourselves, of playing small and blending in. But when we do that, we are not living fully, we are not reaching our potential, and we are not being true to ourselves. It's time for me to break free from that habit, to step out of the shadows and to let my true self shine.
For too long, I've held back, hiding parts of myself to fit in or to please others. But, it's time for me to let go of that fear, to let my true self shine and to be unafraid of being different. Roar, for me, is about embracing my uniqueness and owning it, it's about living my life without apologies, without shame and without fear.
I am done with living small and playing small. I'm ready to take up space, to be seen, and to be heard. I'm ready to embrace my true self and to let my roar be heard.
This year, I am committing to living authentically, to being true to myself and to not letting fear hold me back from being who I am meant to be. I am ready to let my true self be seen and to Roar.
