“Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I’m begging of you, please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don’t take him just because you can.”

That was my first introduction to Dolly and I was hooked on this country singer. I actually thought I was the only African16 year old who loved this singer until I found a like-minded person in Bello (continue to Rest in peace) who gave me a bunch of cassettes of her songs.

Anyways, I’ve always loved her authenticity, free spirit and guts!

Farewell Dolly! You left your legacy! And you’ll be with your soul friend, Kenny. ♥️

Summer is often sold to us as the season of energy, adventure, and endless good vibes.

But nervous systems don't read calendars.

For some people, heat, disrupted routines, social expectations, travel, noise, and longer days can feel less like freedom and more like overload.

If summer sometimes leaves you feeling more irritable than inspired, more restless than refreshed, you're not alone.

The conversation around seasonal wellbeing deserves more nuance than "everyone loves summer."

This month we're making space for those conversations — with curiosity, compassion, and a trauma-informed lens.

What does your nervous system tend to ask for during this season? 🌿

Be very okay with saying the following:

1. No
2. I'm sorry I can't help at the moment. Maybe some other time
3. Is there any other way I can help?
4. No.
5. No
6. NO

You should give to yourself the best of you not what's left over from giving to others. You deserve all the love you give out.

Relationships can have a great start but a great start doesn't guarantee consistency. Focus more on who the person is and that will tell you who they will always show up as.

There is space for growth but don't keep staying when love becomes unsafe.

Love Isn't Gone; It's Just Hidden Under the Weight of the Hurt

1. Love is Energy, and Energy Never Dies: Most people think love just "runs out." In reality, love gets buried under a mountain of misunderstandings and unspoken words.

2. Silence is a Shield, Not a Choice: When we get hurt, our natural instinct is to shut down to protect ourselves. Unfortunately, your partner often mistakes this silence for "not caring".

3. Choose Connection Over Being Right: You can either win the argument or win the relationship. When you fight to be "right," you stop fighting for "us".

4. Don't Fix It, Just Witness It: When your partner is hurting, they aren't looking for a "solution manual." They are looking for a safe space to be heard and understood.

5. Empathy is the Bridge: The distance between two people isn't measured in miles, but in a lack of empathy. Feeling their pain as your own is the only way to close that gap.

6. Good Intentions Aren't Enough: Even the best intentions can feel like an attack if the delivery or timing is off. Love needs a safe and gentle language to survive.

7. The Loneliest Feeling is "Together Alone": Feeling abandoned while sitting right next to someone is the ultimate sign of emotional disconnection. It's not a lack of love; it's a lack of "emotional touch".

8. Untangle Your Own Knots First: To fix the mess between you, you must first be brave enough to admit where you are hurting. Vulnerability is the beginning of the cure.

9. Love is a Daily Decision: It isn't just a feeling; it's a choice you make every single morning to keep showing up and keep trying, even when the knots feel too tight.

10. Rebirth is Possible: If both of you agree to drop your defenses and truly "hear" each other, the love you thought you lost will resurface stronger than ever

On healing and grief... Just fall!

When we feel safe in a relationship, we stop performing and start being ourselves.

We communicate honestly, set healthy boundaries, ask for help without fear, and know that disagreements don't automatically mean rejection.

Safety doesn't create perfect relationships. It creates space for trust, growth, and genuine connection.
