My parents spent years debating how to save energy.
These days, I'm more curious about where mine goes.
Because energy has a way of disappearing long before we notice it's gone.
Happy #SelfCareSunday

It's amazing how much energy we spend worrying about what other people might think.
Most of the time, they're busy worrying about themselves.
Do the thing.
Learn the lesson.
Keep moving.
Idk if that lady was coming for me & my āmakeupā in bed, but to be clear:
I will wake up, get dressed & get going.
I will return to bed.
I will lollygag.
Thatās how I get shit done AND maintain my energy & peace. šš½

You can't hate change and demand convenience at the same time.
Every tool that makes life easier changes the way we live.
When you know better, you do better.
The real question is whether you're willing to grow with what you've learned.
Our parents survived hard lives by learning how to function tired.
A lot of us learned the same thing.
So now weāre an entire generation that feels guilty for needing rest.
Anyway⦠happy #SelfCareSunday and I hope it's a restful one.

POV: Youāre trying to explain to Gen Z that the phone used to be attached to the WALL. š
And yesā¦
somebody could absolutely pick up the other line and ruin your whole conversation.
We survived.
Barely.
āSeek helpā is important.
But we also need to talk more about HOW to recognize good help.
Because vulnerable people can get harmed by the wrong people too.
That conversation matters.
Wishing you good care, good discernment, and a gentle #SelfCareSunday š¤
