Empowerment unnerves people who rely on hierarchy to feel whole.

I never had to.

So I’m not shaken by anyone else rising — I support it.

But here’s the twist: empowerment is often a performance until it encounters real presence.

In my space, it doesn’t escalate — it softens.

Watching even the most empowered become gentler is one of the rarest social privileges in 2026.
