Magnetic Microdose: When Life Lets You Be the Mirror for Someone Else
“If it’s a HAVE TO, it’s from the ego.” That line became the thread for a conversation about judgment, self-permission, and those moments when we realize how often we minimize what we really want. In this short episode, Lena shares: How growing up being called “too much” can make us shrink our desires. Why the have to’s and shoulds are rarely your true voice. How one honest text exchange turned into a reminder that your desires aren’t wrong—your conditioning just made them feel that way. And a story from her life: a moment of unexpected connection during a breast-biopsy procedure, when two women realized they were both living the same truth—just at different times. You’ll leave this microdose reflecting on two things: When have you lived through something hard, only to meet someone later who’s going through the same thing—and realized you were meant to be their mirror? Where are you still saying “I have to” or “I should,” when the real answer is simply “I want to” or “I don’t”? Because your soul never speaks in have to’s. It speaks in truth.
