I Wanna Forgive You... And I Wanna Forget You
Girrrrrrrrrrl, IYKYK Lauren Conrad dropped an ICONIC line in The Hills when she told Heidi, "I wanna forgive you... and I wanna forget you." Who in your life has dome damage beyond repair to the point where you can't forgive and make up and quite literally want to forget them? Sis, today we're talking about how a situation can continue to affect your life until you make the decision to forgive the person. Of course, I had to spill a lil bit of my personal business, and we're journalling our thoughts and reflections, and as always, we're getting into...

First of all, if you didn't watch Will Smith's 6 part documentary series on Youtube what are you doing?! We're talking about getting into the best shape of our lives, and we're not just talking physically but mentally and emotionally too.

Give Yourself A Lil Grace
Hey family! This week we're going easy on us. We're extending the same grace we always let others have and catching a break from the pressure that we put on yourself. It's okay to take a minute to rest and breathe-- that also qualifies as loving ourselves. You guys voted, so I must adhere and give you the story time about the time I cried over a man with nothing but a birth certificate (IYKYK don't miss out on our IG conversations!). And finally, we're back with another lyric dissection and you know we had to get into Adele's...

Lemme Upgrade Ya
I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on timeeee! This week we're a lil late but I had to stop through and give you what you need for your upgrade. We're adopting a growth mindset and going against our limiting beliefs as we step outside of what we know. When we're talking about a growth mindset, I had to shout out Chloe and Halle Bailey who are doing the damn thing by stepping out as individuals and pushing themselves past their comfort zone.
