What If…Words Matter?

April 21, 2025 |

What if I told you that the words you speak each day are shaping your reality?

Not just metaphorically, but energetically, emotionally, and even spiritually.

We go through life speaking constantly. To ourselves. To others. Out loud. In our heads. Online. In passing. But how often are we truly intentional with our words? How often do we consider the weight they carry, the power they hold to create or destroy, to build connection or create distance, to empower or to diminish?

This week, I want to challenge you.

For the next seven days, I want you to observe the way you speak about your life, the world around you, and the people in it. No judgment. No shame. Just awareness.

Are your words fueling your growth or feeding your fear?

Are you affirming your possibilities or repeating your limitations?

So often we don’t even realize how much negativity we allow to creep into our everyday language:

“I can’t ever get a break.”
“I’m always exhausted.”
“Nothing ever works out for me.”
“This world is a mess.”
These might sound like passing comments or common complaints, but they are more than that. They are agreements you’re making with your reality. You’re speaking these things into your experience—reinforcing patterns that may not serve you.

Now, here’s the magic.

What happens when you switch it up?

Try saying this instead:
“I’m learning to find more peace, even in the chaos.”
“I’m grateful for the strength I’m building through this challenge.”
“I’m open to miracles today.”
“I trust that good things are already on their way.”
Watch what happens when you start to speak life into your day. You’ll start to feel lighter. More open. More resilient. You’ll find yourself less reactive when something goes sideways. You’ll start to see the people around you shift—being kinder, more open, more willing to meet you in that higher vibration.

Because language is a frequency. It’s a vibration. And when you raise the vibration of your language, you raise the vibration of your life.

This week, don’t try to be perfect. Just pay attention.

Notice what you say when you’re stressed. When you’re stuck in traffic. When you’re late. When you’re asked about your goals. When you look in the mirror.

Catch yourself in those moments and pause.
Then gently ask: Is there a more empowering way I could say this?

You’ll be amazed how fast this tiny shift starts to ripple into everything else.

Because the truth is, most of us aren’t living unconsciously on purpose. We’ve just inherited ways of speaking from the world around us. From culture. From past trauma. From childhood patterns. From the media we consume.

But you don’t have to keep speaking in the same ways that keep you stuck.

You can choose a new language. A new tone. A new intention.

And you don’t have to overhaul your life overnight to make a difference.

What if you just added 10% more intention into how you communicate?

10% more intention in your texts.
In your work emails.
In how you speak to your kids.
In how you greet the barista.
In how you speak to yourself in the mirror.
That small shift could be the key that unlocks massive change. Because when you change your words, you change your energy. When you change your energy, you change your outcomes.

Imagine a world where everyone paused to speak just 10% more intentionally.

How many misunderstandings would be avoided?
How many hearts would feel more seen and heard?
How many of us would start believing in ourselves again?
It starts with you.

So here’s your challenge:

For the next 7 days, tune in to your communication.
When you notice you are speaking negatively or feeling negatively towards a person or a subject, pause and gently remind yourself to reframe the situation. Look for the Positive and craft a positive way of expressing your experience.
These small steps will break the patterns you’re wanting to escape and quickly help you develop healthy behaviors for the future.
“ I already know this week is going to be outstanding for you!”  Have fun.
