Redefining Success: What It Means to Live Authentically
May 02, 2025
What if success doesn’t have to look a certain way?
Maybe you grew up hearing a very specific version of it:
-
A prestigious career
-
A certain income
-
A checklist of “shoulds”
And maybe, like many of the women I work with, you checked a lot of those boxes...
only to feel a growing sense that it doesn’t fit.
You outgrew the old definition.
Now it’s time to write a new one.
Redefining success isn’t about giving up.
It’s about coming home to yourself.
🌿 It’s choosing your values over other people’s approval.
🌿 It’s honoring your peace as much as your ambition.
🌿 It’s moving toward a life that feels expansive, not just impressive.
Signs you’re ready to redefine success:
-
You feel exhausted keeping up appearances
-
Your achievements feel hollow, not fulfilling
-
You crave more meaning, spaciousness, or creativity
-
You feel a growing “no” in areas you used to tolerate
-
You dream about living differently but don't know where to start
If any of these resonate, you’re not broken.
You’re waking up to your own life.
Living authentically doesn’t mean burning it all down overnight.
It can start with small shifts:
-
Saying no to one commitment that drains you
-
Saying yes to something that scares you (in a good way)
-
Listening more closely to your gut, not your fear
It’s an unfolding, not a performance.
At mareia, we help you make that transition with care.
No reckless leaps. No forced "reinventions."
