When You’re Too Sensitive to Look Away—But Too Awake to Keep Watching
A Sigma Woman’s Guide to Sacred Disengagement

There are few things more destabilizing than watching the world burn while everyone screams at each other about who lit the match.

And if you're anything like me, you’ve tried it all.

You’ve spoken up. Stayed quiet. Taken breaks. Logged back in.
You’ve oscillated between righteous fury and deep fatigue.
You’ve questioned your role, your responsibility, your reach.

You’ve wondered: Am I doing enough?

But here’s the truth no one talks about—
You can be a conscious, caring, justice-oriented human and still say:

“My nervous system cannot metabolize this today.”

You can be deeply informed and also fiercely protective of your peace.
You can disengage—not because you don’t care, but because you do.

This is sacred disengagement.

And it’s not apathy.
It’s not avoidance.
It’s strategic. Energetic. Discerning.

The Sigma Woman doesn’t turn off the news because she’s fragile.
She turns it off because she knows her frequency is too valuable to be hijacked.

There was a time I thought I had to feel every injustice to prove I was paying attention.
I thought if I didn’t join the conversation, I was complicit.
But the truth is… I was crumbling under the weight of everyone else’s rage, with nothing left to give to my own mission.

So I started asking different questions:

• What actually amplifies my power?

• What expands my ability to serve?

• What sustains me in the long run?

And the answer was never doomscrolling.

The answer was never fighting strangers in comment sections.
It was never proving my morality to people I’ll never meet.

The answer was this: Keep my channel clear.

Because when I’m clear, I’m creative.
When I’m clear, I’m compassionate.
When I’m clear, I can hold others—without collapsing under the weight of it all.

This doesn’t mean I look away forever.

It means I look inward first.

It means I tend to the frequency that allows me to build, to lead, to heal, to act—not just react.

So no, I’m not out here debating every hot take or reposting every tragedy.
Not because I’m in denial—but because I’m in devotion.

Devotion to what I came here to do.
Devotion to the work I can sustain.
Devotion to a world where our activism doesn’t burn us out—it brings us back to life.

If you’re holding that same tension…
If you’re too sensitive to look away and too awake to keep watching…
I see you. I am you.

And you don’t have to crumble to care.

You get to lead differently.
