Go Where Your Energy Is Appreciated

A common thread I see running through conversations - with clients, friends, family, and even within myself - is the exhaustion that comes from trying to be understood in spaces where our presence, our truth, or our energy simply isn’t appreciated.

We speak.
We share.
We try to explain.
And yet, we’re met with resistance, silence, or subtle invalidation.

It’s easy to start questioning:
"What’s the point of even trying?"

But here’s a piece of wisdom that has continually grounded me:

Go where your energy is appreciated.

Energy Is Our Currency

We often forget that our energy is our most valuable form of currency. Every moment we choose to spend it - whether through words, action, emotion, or presence - we’re making an energetic investment.

And like any investment, the return matters.

When we offer our energy to spaces that do not value or reciprocate it, we deplete ourselves. We exhaust our reserves. We begin sacrificing not just time, but clarity, confidence, and peace.

And the most dangerous part?
We start to believe that maybe our truth isn’t worth sharing at all.

Appreciation Is Fertile Ground

Where your energy is appreciated, it expands.
It moves, heals, inspires, and uplifts.

These are the spaces where transformation happens. These are the conversations that ripple outward. These are the people who reflect back the light you carry.

It is not your job to force growth in barren soil.
You were not made to dim just to be tolerated.

Choose to spend your energy where it is welcomed, respected, and nourished - not where it is merely endured.

Questions to Ask Yourself

  • How much energy am I sacrificing to the field of non-appreciation?

  • What parts of myself am I withholding or suppressing in those spaces?

  • What would change if I chose to show up only where I am truly received?

There is no sacrifice in spaces where appreciation, mutual respect, and aligned values coexist.

But in the field of disconnection and disregard, everything becomes a transaction - one that often costs us more than we realize.

Closing Thought

You have a choice every day about where and how you spend your life force.
You don’t need to prove your worth in spaces that can’t see it.

You are not for everyone - and that is your liberation, not your burden.

So go where your energy is appreciated.
That is where your truth will grow wings.

With grace and clarity,
Chantelle
