I was in a War.

Posted on March 22, 2015 by thefiercestfeminist

He asked me
where my scars
came from.

I told him it
was a battle.

I was in a war
against
myself.

IF YOU DON’T BUILD YOUR DREAM, SOMEONE WILL HIRE YOU TO BUILD THEIRS 🗣 Every day I’m hustling 👯‍♀️ what do I do when someone makes me feel like I’m not enough? Take all that negative energy and turn it into something. Something powerful, because the best revenge is success 💅🏻 Bitch, I want you to see me in a year and see where I am, and where you are. See ya never again 💅🏻 • • • #success #feminist #powerful #powerfulwomen #women #empoweringwomen #empowerment #inspiration #inspiring #motivation #me #manchester #law #lawyer #legallyblonde #feminist #traineesolicitor #singlegirl #singlelife #businesswoman

THIS TIME LAST YEAR 👀 I was a ball of emotions. I wasn’t eating. I lost weight. I wanted to cry every single minute of my day. I felt so empty. I felt so unwanted and unloved. I felt dead to the world. No one would bother if I was here or I wasn’t. It was one of the worst times of my life, and I spent a lot of time thinking about myself and where I was going and what the fuck I was doing with my life. Why was I okay with being treated like shit and letting someone tell me what I was and I wasn’t? Why did I let someone make me feel validated and make me feel like everything was my fault? - - It took me a while to confess to people close to me how my dating life had looked for the past year. I’d seemed happy. When really, it had been a sad year. I had to try and not do anything wrong, because I didn’t want to the lose the man who I thought was my best friend. In reality, he probably wasn’t. In truth, it broke me down into small pieces. When I think about it now, I think about all the shit and the relapses I put myself through. It makes me sorry to my body and myself that I did that 2020 is better already, and I’m happy, and I can see a future. And I only have men now in my life who support and lift me up, and look out for me. It’s what I deserve. - - - #lawyer #law #feminist #feminism #empowering #toxicrelationships #toxic #dating #single #singlegirl #singlelife #selflove #mentalhealth #personal #blogger #blog #spoonie #me #mystory #legallyblonde #legal #traineesolicitor

LEGALLYFIERCEFEMINIST 👑🙌🏻 A lot of new people have joined us on this little thing I call my blog, and I’m so excited and loving all the new people who I’ve noticed are now following me. I thought I’d do a quick introduction to those who’ve just joined us 😬 - I’m Rachel, I’m 23 and I’m a trainee solicitor at a lovely high street firm. We specialise in crime, prison law and family law. So it’s a great firm to be involved in! - - I’m based in Manchester and love the blogging and legal atmosphere! I can’t forget to mention @weblognorth who introduced me to some people who I would gladly and massively call some of my closest friends now. - I studied a BA in English and American literatures before going onto study the GDL. I wasn’t always destined for law, and my journey from being an English literature nerd to a law nerd has been one I won’t forget for a long time! - I studied my LLM and finished it last July. It was honestly not that hard- mainly hard work and a willingness to study alllll the time. - I am a massive feminist and I love to document my lovely and ridiculous dating life 🥴 • • • #lawyer #law #legal #legallyblonde #feminist #feminism #femaleempowerment #femalelawyer #solicitor #traineesolicitor #blogger #manchester #dating #datingblogger #manchesterblogger #legallife #legalproblems

NO MORE JANUARY BLUES 😑🥴 I’ve already mentioned how stressed I’ve been at the beginning of this month- and I think I pushed myself to a point that I know I shouldn’t. Which is improvement 💯 you shouldn’t push yourself to a point that your mental health starts to suffer and even your physical health. Everyone needs a break once in a while, and that’s what I did yesterday. I didn’t think about work or anything to do with it. I attended @onthebeachholidays for a blog event, and it was so fab❗️If you cant get to a beach, they really make sure you feel like you’re on holiday. I had a sangria or two, a sex on the beach and some Prosecco. Some amazing Catalonian food, and a few chills in the hammock to take this abnormal looking photo 😉 Then we carried the night on 💃🏼💃🏼 • • • #me #blogger #blog #girl #manchester #onthebeach #travel #travelblog #feminist #feminism #empowerment #empoweredwomenempowerwomen #singlegirl #singlelife #single #dating #drinks

IF YOU DON’T HEAL, YOU BLEED ON THOSE WHO DIDN’T CUT YOU 🙌🏻 Some people flip from relationship to relationships. They go from friendship group to friendship group. They constantly get hurt and don’t heal from that pain. If you don’t heal from your past, it will come back as a ghost to haunt you. It’s unfair to enter into a relationship if you’re still hurting from your last. Why should we have to deal with baggage from your last shitty ex? Flaws make us human, but baggage should be unzipped, sorted and put away. Don’t bring it to other people, or think that other people can heal you. In 2020 we are not fucking people around, or hurting people because we were once hurt. In 2020 we are GOING to sort out shit first, and then move into our new future. Your body, mind and peace will thank me later 🙌🏻🙌🏻 • • • #recovery #life #lifestyle #me #mine #recoveryispossible #recoveryjourney #law #lawblog #lawyer #trainee #traineesolicitor #legallyblonde #blonde #relationshipadvice #singlegirl #singlelife #wellness #motivation #manchesterblogger #manchester

BEING DUMPED SAVED ME 👋🏻 It’s no secret that last January I went through a rough break up. Then the next day I met another guy, and I went on a date with him. Every week it was a different guy, because I didn’t want to be alone. I didn’t want to be single. I had no idea that all of this was to cover up every single issue I’d never dealt with. I’d been made to feel little, and tiny, and too outspoken, and too confident, and like I didn’t care about other people. And every single bad thing I had thought about myself was apparently true. I felt like a terrible person, and why would I want to be alone with someone like that? I decided to stop dating, I decided I had to sort my shit out. And look at what the universe gave me in return. It saw me taking time and looking after myself. I faced my shit, I made up with people and I got rid of baggage in the form of fake friends, and life became so much better. I had to be dumped to understand I wasn’t dating to meet someone I loved, I was dating to feel good about myself. And that hurts the most. From now, when I meet someone new, I think whether I really want this, or whether I’m being super toxic. I feel like I prosper now by myself, and I face every stressful situation on my own. After all, you’re the best person for yourself to depend on 💓👋🏻 • • • #recovery #selflove #breakup #single #singlegirl #singlelife #me #selfie #makeup #feminist #feminism #bodypositivity #legallyblonde #legal #law #lawblog #feministblog #recoveryispossible #recoverywarrior
