Speak It Into Being: Why Words Create Ripples
Some changes begin quietly, as a thought or dream we keep tucked away. But here’s the truth: until we speak it, it’s not real.

Some changes begin quietly, as a thought or dream we keep tucked away. But here’s the truth: until we speak it, it’s not real.
I’ve seen it time and again—in my own life and with clients. The moment you put words around your vision, something shifts. Speaking out loud stakes a claim. It clarifies your intent, ignites curiosity, and invites others into your dream.
Words don’t just describe reality. They create it.
Think of it like tossing a pebble into water. One sentence—“I’m writing my book.” “I’m launching this project.” “I’m ready for this change.”—creates ripples that spread further than you can see.
✨ Try this: Name your vision aloud. Don’t worry about how you’ll get from A to Z. Just start. Speak one sentence of what you want to build, create, or become. Notice how it feels in your body. Notice who leans in when they hear you.
Change begins with a word. What word will you give your next chapter?
Every time you speak, you have the chance to connect, inspire, and expand possibility. The more you practice, the more natural it becomes. You’re not lost. You’re a Wayfinder.
