Hey Bold Mama,
Let’s talk about something that doesn’t get enough airtime:
What it actually means to feel safe within yourself.
Not surface-level safety like locking the doors or avoiding bad vibes.
I’m talking real safety.
The kind that lets you breathe a little deeper, show up fully, and stop second-guessing yourself.
The kind that keeps you grounded—even when your kids are screaming, your to-do list is a mile long, and your brain is yelling “🚨 mayday!!”
Here’s the truth: you don’t have to wait for the outside world to calm down to feel calm inside.
You can build safety from within. And it starts with a few simple (but powerful) shifts:
1. Know Who You Really Are
Get familiar with your authentic self—the YOU underneath the people-pleasing, perfectionism, or autopilot mode.
Ask: What do I value? What lights me up? What do I need in order to feel nourished and whole?
2. Set Boundaries That Honor Your Truth
When you know your values, you can start protecting them.
Boundaries aren’t walls—they’re sacred containers that keep your energy aligned with who you really are.
3. Build Self-Trust
Safety comes from proving to yourself that you can be counted on.
Start with small promises. Show up for YOU. Every time you follow through, you tell your nervous system: “I’ve got you.”
4. Regulate Through the Body
Self-safety isn’t just a mindset—it’s a felt sense.
Try this quick practice: hand on your heart, hand on your belly. Take three deep, slow breaths. Feel your feet on the ground. Let your body know it’s safe to soften.
5. Create a Self-Soothing Anchor
Find an affirmation that brings you back home.
Mine? “I am safe because I have my back and the Universe has my back.”
Say it when you’re spiraling. Whisper it when you’re on the verge. Use it like a life raft.
This kind of inner safety isn’t a switch you flip—it’s a relationship you build with yourself. And it changes everything.
The good news? You don’t have to figure it out alone.
Inside the Bold Mama Movement Membership (coming soon 👀), we’re going deep into this.
We’re creating rituals, boundaries, and nervous system support that actually fit into real mom life.
Because you deserve to feel rooted, regulated, and resilient—no matter what chaos is swirling around you.
More details coming soon. For now, maybe just start with a hand on your heart and a breath that says:
"I’m here. I’ve got me. And I’m safe."
With love & grounded power,
Sammy
Bold Mama Energy 💛
