My previous blog about “Watch Your Truth” is a call to be mindful of what is genuinely true for you and to live in alignment with that truth. It means being aware of your values, your beliefs, and your motivations, and making choices that reflect your authentic self, rather than conforming to external pressures or expectations. It’s about self-awareness, authenticity, and integrity.
The phrase “watching your truth” is a call to remove the mask we wear daily. Watch your truth encourage anyone to be true to themselves. It’s about aligning actions and decisions with core values and beliefs, rather than being swayed by external pressures or social expectations. It’s about self-discovery and expressing your genuine self.
- Self-awareness requires understanding your values, beliefs, and what truly matters to you.

- Courage is speaking your truth, though it can sometimes be challenging, especially when it goes against popular opinion or social norms.
