Hello, my loves. Today, we’re going to be talking about “Walk Away Energy,” which is the ultimate fucking power move in love, in business, in life, and everywhere else.
We’re going to talk about what Walk Away Energy actually is, why it’s so powerful, and how to embody it so you stop settling for crumbs in any and all areas of your life.
If you aren’t familiar, I actually heard the phrase “Walk Away Energy” from Chapel Roan.
I saw a TikTok of her being interviewed at the Grammys, and the interviewer was asking her how she’s so chill even with all the success that she’s had as an artist, and she said, “Because I have Walk Away Energy.”
Let’s start with what Walk Away Energy is. Walk Away Energy, to me, is the embodiment of “I know my worth so deeply, and I refuse to beg for what should be freely given.”
It’s not about entitlement; it’s not about telling someone they need to treat you a certain way.
I see that a lot with women. They start to do personal development, and then they want to tell every man that they’re talking to, “This is how I deserve to be treated.”
You don’t need to tell someone how to treat you. You treat yourself that way, and they will follow suit. And if they don’t…you walk away. Hence, “Walk Away Energy.”
You’re not going to beg for respect, consistency, honesty, etcetera—those are very, very basic things that no one should fucking be begging for. If someone isn’t giving those things to you, simply walk away.
Walk Away Energy is all about knowing when to step the fuck back. Knowing when enough is enough. Knowing when you’re being mistreated. Knowing when something’s not for you. Knowing when a relationship is done in any, in any way, shape, or form.
Knowing when something is complete: that’s the Walk Away Energy vibe.
So, why is Walk Away Energy so magnetic? Because people always want what they can’t have.
If you think about things in terms of energetics, the more you cling to someone, the more avoidant they become. The less you cling, the more someone leans in.
Now don’t use that to be manipulative—you can’t get an avoidant guy to commit by pretending to be detached. Energy always trumps action, no matter what.
You can act like you don’t care, but deep down you do, and they’ll sense that. You genuinely have to let go and stop emotionally clinging on to them.
And the best part is…when you stop clinging, you create space for something way better to step in.
If something better is coming after, then why do people struggle to walk away?
Because a lot of people get caught up in the fear that this is as good as it gets. What if they let this go, and they’re alone forever?
That’s called scarcity mindset. Scarcity mindset can crop up in business, in love, in money, in sexuality…no matter what, you can always fall into the trap of thinking there’s not enough of what you want to go around.
Sure, maybe this guy treats you like a four out of ten, but what if the next guy treats you like a two out of ten? What if four is the best you’re going to get?
Let me be so clear: I would rather be alone than be treated like a fucking four out of ten.
If I’m not being treated like a ten out of ten, I’m out. Because I treat myself like a ten out of ten, and if you’re going to be in my world, you need to match or exceed that, period.
If that’s not happening, I don’t care how hot you are or how big your dick is—I’m walking away.

I get it, girl. I’ve been there too. For years, I was going through the same experiences with men over and over again that left me feeling confused, anxious and pissed off.
I silenced myself in dating and relationships because I was terrified of being judged, rejected and abandoned. It all changed when I went through a break-up and thought “enough is enough. I cannot continue to repeat the same relationships with different men! Something HAS to change!”
