Saying folks need thick skin to deal with you says you want others to accept the toxicity and disrespect. As my sis said, do better by how you treat people.

And the best part is they all did it themselves! 😂 I didn't have to do anything but allow it to happen.

PERIOD‼️ Don't bend on this....

When you ask for it, also ask for capacity, wisdom and discernment.🧘🏾‍♀️

That might be too much!! 😂😂😂🤷🏾‍♀️

Do what makes you happy!!! 💜💜

Hello September!!! 💜

As you grow, some things are not worth the time and energy!

Have you ever realized, “I show up for people in ways they don’t show up for me?”

You check in. You support. You remember the little things. You make space for everyone else—but when you need someone, the energy isn’t always returned.

It hurts. But it also teaches you something.

Stop overgiving. Start paying attention to patterns. Communicate your needs. Match effort without resentment. And most importantly, stop abandoning yourself to be there for everyone else.

You can love people without carrying them.

You can care without overextending yourself.

You can show up for others without disappearing from your own life.

Sometimes choosing yourself means accepting that not everyone has the capacity to show up the way you do.

And that’s okay. Just don’t keep giving more than you’re willing to receive.

💜 Choose You.
