Courage Calling: My March Meditation
Affirmation: I am ready, willing, and worthy of every yes—and strong enough for every no. I release the fear of rejection and welcome the freedom that comes with asking.
March is calling me forward.
Calling for calculated risks, for less shrinking and more growing, for fewer excuses and more learning from doing, for less trying and more doing. It feels like a month that wants movement—inner and outer. A month that wants me to stretch.
People often tell me I’m brave.
They see me traveling the world solo, hiking alone, wandering into new places , with my curiosity, and my sense of direction that is sometimes spiritual more than geographical. They see courage in that.
But that kind of courage has always come easily to me.
I grew up as an only child with an imaginary friend, so solitude never felt like a threat. It felt like home. Adventure felt like a companion. Being on my own felt like a natural state of being.
Where courage becomes complicated is in the places where I feel exposed.
The places where I have to ask.
The places where I have to need.
The places where I risk hearing no.
There are moments—quiet, internal moments—where I have to dig deep to find courage. Sometimes I find it. Sometimes I choose avoidance instead (and avoidance never leads anywhere good). Asking for help? Whew. Asking for anything at all? That one still shakes me. The fear of rejection is real, heavy, and loud.
But March is asking something different of me.
