Not your typical love-and-light bullsh*t. Just my subtle (okayyyy, sometimes NOT-so-subtle đ) way of calling you OUT & calling you BACK to yourself, all while reminding you you're not alone in any of this.

This is for the woman whoâs done being the âgood girlâ The one who bites her tongue, makes herself small, and swallows the truth just to keep the peace. If youâre honest⌠you know thatâs you. Youâve been standing on this side of the bridge your whole damn life, looking at the woman you could be on the other side. That bridge? Itâs not going to cross itself.â The other side isnât for the woman who waits. If youâve been waiting for a sign, this is it. Will I see you on the other side?

You bit your tongue to avoid tension. You quieted your brilliance to make others more comfortable. You told yourself that maybe less of you would be easier to love. But the truth? They still left. Or they stayed and made you question your worth. So hereâs your permission slip to stop. Stop diluting your magic.Stop bending to...
Letâs talk about the lie. The one most of us were sold before we even knew how to listen to our bodies.Be nice. Be agreeable. Keep the peace.Be good, even if it costs you yourself. I remember TOO many moments in my life where I chose being liked over being honest.My gut said no.My mouth said, âSure, whatever you need.âAnd my body? Itâs still remembering.... Thatâs what people-pleasing does. It makes you betray your own truth in the name of being âgood.â But hereâs the thing: What if the truth...
