Know Yourself, Know Your Worth

Let me get straight to the point. Women, do not give your partner and relationship the grace you do not even give yourself. We (yes, myself included) have at some point forgiven things we would not do ourselves, justified mistreatment as love, and supported someone who would not return the favor. But when you turn around, you take every rejection to heart, have no problem giving your friends the cold shoulder in the name of self-care, and post support online for others while being scared to take that next step for yourself.

It’s been on my heart and on my mind to let you know that hearing you are worthy is sometimes not enough, you have to put that into action by putting worth into yourself. Start by trying to give yourself what you give to others and see the difference in the energy you receive. And most importantly, as thee great Megan Thee Stallion said,

“Get a therapist”

We talk about keeping friends in our lives who tell us the truth but some people are going through the fire in relationships but the fact is, some of y’all are not telling your friends the complete truth about what you’re going through. If you’re withholding information then that means you are aware that you are in an unhealthy situation that is not serving you. All the more reason to seek professional help to learn how to work through whatever it is you’re going through.

So if you feel like your relationships are thriving and you are not, take this post as a sign to pour some YOU into YOU. Regardless of how uncomfortable it makes others feel! It is so wonderful to have a big heart, be compassionate, and be forgiving but give that street a stop sign start paving in the direction that leads back to yourself.
