TelbyFae Publications

Hi Tumblr family 🌿✨

I’m stepping into a fresh digital space, one filled with stories, soul work, creativity, and a whole lot of legacy building. My name is Telby Fae — author, publisher, and lover of words that heal, ignite, and make people feel something real.

This blog will be my corner of the Internet where I’ll share:

🖊 Writing journeys — the beauty and the breakdowns of creating worlds, characters, and books.

📚 Publishing & storytelling insights — for writers who dream of building something timeless.

🌱 Soft life meets purpose — wellness, faith, healing, and the gentle art of becoming who you are meant to be.

✨ Creative sparks — poetry, quotes, behind-the-scenes of book projects, retreats, and this wild author life.

I’m not here to be perfect, just present, honest, and evolving. If you’ve ever felt called to create, to heal through words, or to chase a dream even when it's messy… you’re home here.

Let’s write, grow, and build legacy together.

Here’s a little secret about elevation that nobody posts on vision boards: The higher you go, the less you explain.

This new year didn’t suddenly make things happen. Decisions did. Boundaries did. Clarity did.

Real growth doesn’t announce itself with noise; it moves with precision. It upgrades systems. It edits access. It chooses alignment over applause.

And yes, the energy is still warm. Still joyful. Still gracious. But make no mistake, this joy is disciplined.

✨ Peace is protected. ✨ Vision is prioritized. ✨ Time is treated like currency.

This isn’t a season of hustle-for-validation. It’s a season of executing the vision with confidence. Of building things that last. Of moving like someone who knows the future is already working in their favor.

So, if it feels like the room got quieter...Good. That’s what happens when elevation replaces noise with intention.

Welcome to the new year. Same heart. Higher standards. Clearer vision. Unmistakable direction.

There’s a moment in every creator’s journey when growth stops looking flashy and starts looking focused. That moment doesn’t come with applause. It comes with clarity.

True elevation isn’t about doing more; it’s about moving with intention. Choosing what aligns. Releasing what no longer scales with the vision. Building quietly while the future takes notes.

Most people think leadership is about visibility. But real leaders understand something deeper: ✨ Direction matters more than noise. ✨ Depth matters more than speed. ✨ Legacy requires discernment, not urgency.

This season isn’t about proving anything. It’s about positioning. About expanding without dilution. About honoring the calling to go higher, without dragging old versions of yourself along for the ride.

Visionaries don’t rush. They refine. They simplify. They elevate their standards before they elevate their platforms.

And when the shift finally becomes visible to the world, it looks “sudden.” But in truth, it was intentional all along.

This is what higher heights look like. Not louder. Not busier. Just clearer, calmer, and undeniably aligned.

Some days don’t start with fireworks. Sometimes the morning feels slow, heavy, or a little quiet. But here’s the magic: you still get to choose your light.

Joy isn’t something you wait for. It’s something you create in small, beautiful ways: a deep breath, a warm cup, a good song, a kind thought, a moment that reminds you you’re still here and still becoming.

You don’t need a perfect day to shine. You just need one reason to smile, and if you can’t find one yet, let today be the day you make one.

💫 Open the window. 💫 Stretch your spirit. 💫 Let gratitude tap you on the shoulder. 💫 Let hope whisper, “You’ve got more living to do.”

You are allowed to glow in the middle of uncertainty. You are allowed to bloom even if yesterday felt heavy. You are allowed to bring your own sunshine wherever you go, because the world needs your brightness more than you realize.

Here’s to joy that finds you, peace that stays with you, and motivation that rises with the sun. 🌞✨

There comes a time when you stop explaining yourself and start enjoying yourself.

Not everything needs a response. Not every vibe deserves your energy. And not every situation is worth losing your peace over.

That’s not detachment — that’s growth.

Unbothered isn’t about pretending not to care; it’s about caring so much for your peace that you refuse to hand it over for free. You can wish people well and move on. You can love yourself and outgrow what doesn’t fit anymore. You can glow, grow, and let go, all in the same season.

✨ Protect your calm. ✨ Keep your humor. ✨ Water what’s blooming, not what’s wilting.

Because honestly? Unbothered looks good on you. It’s timeless, effortless, and just the right amount of sparkle.

Here’s a little truth for your timeline: the real glow-up isn’t about the new outfit, the fancy title, or the curated feed. It’s about the energy you carry when nobody’s watching.

Growth looks like being proud of small wins. It’s choosing calm over chaos, gratitude over gossip, and peace over proving. It’s waking up and deciding, “I’m still becoming, and that’s beautiful.”

You don’t have to have it all figured out to shine. You just have to keep showing up, softer, wiser, and with a little sparkle of self-belief.

So today, remind yourself: 💫 You’re allowed to rest. 💫 You’re allowed to start again. 💫 You’re allowed to celebrate yourself even mid-journey.

The glow-up starts the moment you decide your joy isn’t optional, it’s non-negotiable.

Let’s be honest, life gets a whole lot smoother when you stop over-explaining and start protecting your peace like it’s mandatory.

Some days the world will test your patience, your posture, and your playlist. That’s your cue to take a breath, sip some water, straighten your crown (or hoodie), and remember, peace isn’t something you find, it’s something you choose.

You can be kind and set boundaries. You can be chill and still chase goals. You can glow and say no.

✨ Protect your peace like it’s part of the dress code. ✨ Carry joy like an accessory. ✨ Let gratitude be your favorite outfit.

No matter who you are or where you are, peace looks good on everyone.

Listen… peace of mind isn’t cheap. Confidence? Custom-made. And this glow? Honey, it’s not from a filter, it’s from finally minding my own divine business.

Some people think I’ve changed. No, baby, I just upgraded the settings. New boundaries. New blessings. New level of “nah, I’m good.”

Here’s the thing: when you stop chasing validation and start choosing vibration, your whole life gets lighter. You laugh louder. You sleep better. You realize that what’s meant for you won’t require begging, convincing, or shrinking.

✨ Protect your peace like it’s designer. ✨ Set boundaries like they’re limited edition. ✨ Love yourself like you finally read the fine print on your worth.

Life gets better when you stop chasing the sale and start living in your value. So yeah, my vibe is expensive, and it doesn’t take coupons.

Some people don’t actually dislike you, they just can’t stand that you said yes to the life they’re still scared to claim.

You’re not intimidating;

they’re just intimidated.

You’re not “doing too much”;

they’ve just settled for too little.

I’ve learned that when you start healing, loving yourself, setting boundaries, and chasing your dreams out loud; it triggers people who benefit from your silence and your smallness.

But here’s the thing:

I don’t shrink anymore.

I don’t argue about my worth, my calling, or my peace.

I’m not explaining why I left the room when the energy got weird.

I felt it, God confirmed it, and my spirit said “we’re done here.”

If that makes me “difficult,” “distant,” or “changed” that's good. Growth should make you unrecognizable to the version of you that was just trying to survive.

So no, I’m not arguing.

I’m evolving. Loudly. Softly. Unapologetically.

And if that bothers you? You were never meant to sit at my table anyway.

Let’s get one thing straight Being bold, passionate, emotional, creative, extra, whatever they want to call it, is not a flaw.

People love the idea of a strong, expressive, magical soul… until it requires them to rise to the same level. Then suddenly, you’re “doing too much,” “too sensitive,” or “too ambitious.”

No, baby.

I’m not too much, you’re just not enough for this frequency.

I refuse to shrink so someone else can feel comfortable in their smallness. I refuse to water myself down because my presence feels like pressure to those who chose average.

✨ I laugh loud.

✨ I dream big.

✨ I care deeply.

✨ And I refuse to apologize for it.

If my shine hurts your eyes, buy sunglasses.

If my voice is too loud, step back.

If my energy is too real, that sounds like a you problem.

To every person who’s been told to tone it down: don’t.

Take up space. Be the whole storm. Be the whole poem. Be the whole legacy.

Soft doesn’t mean silent.

Confidence doesn’t mean cruel.

And choosing yourself doesn’t mean you’re selfish, it means you finally remembered who you are.

Dear dreamer,

I know you’ve hovered over the delete button. Over your poem, your business idea, your feelings, your voice. I know what it’s like to read your own work and think, “Who am I to share this?”

But hear me…

The draft is not the problem. The doubt is.

Greatness rarely arrives perfectly worded the first time. Sometimes it shows up as scribbles in your notes app, voice memos recorded between tears, or 2 a.m. sentences that don’t make sense until morning. That doesn’t make it worthless. It makes it real.

✨ Your draft is proof you tried.

✨ It’s evidence that something inside you is brave enough to begin.

✨ It is the doorway to what will one day be your finished masterpiece.

So don’t delete it.

Save it. Grow with it. Let it become what it’s meant to be.

One day, someone will read it and whisper, “I thought I was the only one who felt that way.” And in that moment, you’ll understand why the draft had to exist first.

Keep writing. Keep dreaming. Keep every version of you.
