You Were Never Too Much. They Were Just Too Basic.

The post emphasizes that being perceived as "too much" by others often stems from their own mediocrity. It encourages individuals to embrace their brilliance instead of shrinking for others' comfort. The content promotes self-empowerment and building boundaries, urging readers to reclaim their energy and connect with a supportive community.

You weren’t too loud.
Too sensitive.
Too ambitious.
Too honest.
Too deep.
Too confident.
Too sparkly.

You were just too awake for people committed to the comfort of their own dullness.


🃏 Today’s Viral Oracle™ Pull:

“You weren’t ‘too much.’ You were just finally enough to trigger their mediocrity.”

Let that sink in while you sip.

Because the truth is: people who are half-alive can’t handle someone who’s on fire.
And mediocrity always mislabels brilliance as “extra.”


✨ Real Talk:

You didn’t outgrow them.
They just stayed small.

You stopped explaining yourself.
And suddenly, you were “difficult.”

You set a boundary.
And somehow, you’re the problem?

Nah. Let them talk. While you build.


💭 Journal Prompt:

“Where have I been shrinking myself to soothe someone else’s insecurities?”

Dorey Duncan Scott Senior Litigation Paralegal
Hi! I’m Dorey Duncan Scott, a mother of three, wife and fashion entrepreneur. I started my career in fashion back in the early 90’s when I did print, still and runway modeling. I studied Fashion Merchandising, Music Business and Marketing, while also obtaining certificates in such industry-necessary areas such as make-up, styling and runway choreography. In addition, I had work as a spokesmodel for several brands, appearing in print and in person. As a former model, turned senior litigation paralegal, artist manager and on-air personality with a passion for fashion, beauty, and personal development, I bring a unique combination of style, strategic thinking, and legal expertise to my work. My years navigating the legal world have sharpened my attention to detail, while my experience and passion for fashion, beauty, and personal development drives my desire to help others feel empowered and help them in their journey toward self-empowerment. My experience in the fashion world has taught me the power of confidence.
