Taking the Long Way Around
In this video, I share a message for the misfits and the ones who’ve always felt a little out of place. Not Everyone Is Meant to Follow is about honoring your own pace, even when the world tells you to speed up.
A Message for the Misfits, the Wanderers, and the Wild Ones Not everyone is meant to follow.
Some of us were never designed to fit into someone else’s system. Some of us were born to take the long way around , the scenic route, the strange path, the dirt road no one else even sees.
Hit play to hear what I’ve learned about taking the long way around , and if it resonates, follow my journey on YouTube for more soul-fueled stories and tools for empowered living.
This is a message for the misfits. For the ones who’ve been told they’re “too much,” “too sensitive,” or “too weird.” For those of us who don’t walk in straight lines. Who can’t be rushed. Who can’t be folded into someone else’s timeline.
Maybe your journey has looked nothing like you thought it would. Maybe it’s been messy. Slow. Nonlinear. Maybe you’ve watched other people pass you by, getting the job, the relationship, the validation . while you’re still standing in the forest wondering what the hell your next step is.
But here’s the truth: you’re not lost. You’re listening.
You’re learning how to hear your own voice over the noise.
You’re refusing to betray yourself for the illusion of progress.
And that takes courage.
The world will always try to get you to move faster. To skip the pause. To silence the part of you that needs to wander, reflect, or just be for a while. But some of us, the misfits, the sensitives, the soul-led — we’re not here to take shortcuts. We’re here to go deep.
We’re here to remember that going slow doesn’t mean you’re behind. It means you’re honoring your design.
I used to beat myself up for not keeping up or needing more space, more time, more rest. But what I’ve realized is this: when I honor my natural rhythm, when I let myself take the long way, I end up exactly where I’m meant to be, only I arrive with my soul intact.
If you’re feeling behind, I want you to know: you’re not. You’re on your path. And it’s okay if it looks different.
Because not everyone is meant to follow. Some of us were born to lead, but in our own weird, wandering, wonderfully nonlinear way. So here’s to the detours. The delays. The divine timing that makes no sense until it finally does. Here’s to taking the long way around, and finding yourself exactly where you belong.
