Your Fire Was Never the Problem - The World Just Wasn’t Ready

I was always told my fire was the problem. Too much. Too loud. Too intense. Too emotional. Too everything.

It wasn’t said outright - not always. But I felt it in every room I dimmed myself to belong in. What no one saw was that I wasn’t just bright - I was nuclear.

Over 20 years ago, my brother would often say: “You’re like a nuclear reactor, sis.” I agreed and would feel exasperated and say: “Great, but what do I do with it?! The world can’t seem to handle it?!”

Even then, I knew there was something inside me too powerful to contain. But I didn’t know what to do with it; how to channel it, where to put it, who I could safely be around, and how to live without setting everything around me on fire, myself included! The world wasn’t designed for people like me back then.

So like many of us, I shrank, I suppressed, I people-pleased, felt angry and I burnt out. And inevitably, that fire turned inward. Because when a nuclear reactor doesn’t know how to hold itself… it leaks, it overheats, it either implodes, or burns everything around it. And I did both.

For years, I watched myself over-give, under-earn, stay too long, say too little, and feel too much. Not because I was broken, but because I had no container for my own power.

My intensity scared people and it scared me even. My insight unnerved them. My soul - when fully lit - made others tremble, ignite or run.

But here’s what I’ve learned:

I was never too much.

I was just unclaimed potential.

The world wasn’t ready for me. But more painfully… neither was I.

I hadn’t yet burned enough to rise, I hadn’t yet healed enough to channel, I hadn’t yet owned the truth:

I’m not here to be palatable.

I’m here to be powerful.

Now, I don’t just hold this fire - I lead with it. I don’t coach. I activate. I don’t fix people. I ignite their truth.

Freedom of Self™ is not a nice idea.

It’s a quantum detonation - for every soul who’s ever been told they’re too bright to be loved, too intense to be safe, too deep to be desired.

Let me be clear:

Your fire was never the problem.

Suppressing it was.

And I’m not here to dim anymore.

I’m here to teach others how to light their core and still stay intact.

This is what it means to be a Divine Nuclear Reactor:

I react.

I radiate.

I activate.

And I stay grounded while I do it.

Not everyone will be able to hold your energy. But that doesn’t mean you shrink it. You were born to be this powerful.

Now it’s time to own it.

🔥 Share this with every woman or man who’s ever dimmed their fire to keep others comfortable.

Let them know:

They are not too much.

They are just nuclear - and finally, they know how to command it.
