your kindness, your compassion, your sensitivity, your ability to learn & grow from your mistakes, your smile and your entire existence? they’re never wasted. it’s radical and it changes the world in small, but significant ways. it’s honorable of you to believe there is more out there than suffering and cruelty. it’s beautiful of you to believe that there should be more than just pain.

TO ANY BLACK WOMAN THAT CAN SEE THIS

You are appreciated & loved . You are the foundation of the human race, the strongest thing in nature . Know you are beautiful & continue to shine .

I allow myself to release the fears surrounding new beginnings and new spaces I am moving into within myself. I trust in my intuitive and creative processes to guide me.

you absolutely must choose yourself this time

Say it with me: by next June 2022, I will be living my dreams.

You gotta do things with purpose and genuine intent. Not because it feeds your ego or grants you validation.

you are still learning.

you are still growing.

you are still healing.

please be gentle with yourself.

Crazy how fast things happen for you when you just...relax.
