When our ancestors decided that women should do less strenuous work, it was founded on the energetic principle of our magnetism. We absorb, we require more rest & more ease to be in our prime.

Men are electric and effort driven. We aren't but we have been conditioned otherwise.

It was 8 PM on a Friday, and my partner was dead asleep on the living room sofa, still in his work clothes.

I was on FaceTime with a friend who was getting ready for a massive night out. She asked what my weekend plans were, and I flipped the camera to show him resting.
She sighed, doing her makeup. “Girl, doesn't it bother you? You’re young, it's Friday, and you're just watching a man sleep. You deserve the princess treatment. If he really wanted to take you out and show you off, he would.”

I looked at him. I looked at the dark circles under his eyes and the laptop still open on the coffee table.
What my friend didn’t see was that earlier that week, he had quietly taken over two of my biggest bills so I could afford to take a lower-paying job that I actually loved. He had been pulling 14-hour days for months, absorbing all the financial pressure so I could finally breathe.
I didn’t argue with her. I just calmly said,
“He is giving me the soft life. The soft life is me waking up without panic because he goes to war every single day. I’m not going to punish him for returning from that war exhausted.”
The line got quiet. I told her to have fun, hung up, and draped a blanket over him.

The internet has completely warped our idea of what love looks like. It has convinced women that "princess treatment" means endless aesthetic dates, constant entertainment, and a partner who operates with infinite energy.
But a man cannot simultaneously be in the trenches securing your absolute safety, and have the carefree energy of a guy with zero responsibilities.
I realized that night: The ultimate luxury isn't a man who takes you out to be seen. It’s a man who makes your life so incredibly secure that fiercely protecting his rest becomes your biggest priority.

Absolutely.🥺

[malanda. @overlyxclusive]

you have to have people in your life who understand your seasons, who don’t disappear when growth slows or stillness arrives. there is so much safety in those who know how to stay, wherever you are, however life finds you

Mercy is when you can’t even explain how you’re surviving, yet you are. You don’t have it all figured out, but each day, God sends help, encouragement, and provision right when you need it—showing up quietly but powerfully.

13 years ago I sat down with my dear friend @oprah to discuss the state of the world and the influence of social media platforms on humanity. This conversation is somehow even more relevant today.

When you offer someone safety and security, you guide their nervous system towards love rather than fear. You gift their body ease-so they can be present and show up as exactly who they are.#SafePeople #BeSafe

@LeboSpeaks I'm self-aware...to both the good and not-so-goods parts of me😆. Being self-aware has helped me take better care of myself, have deeper relationships, and live a more fulfilling life.🫶

#WeThePeople #WithdrawTheBill #ParticipatiloryDemocracy
#FoodForThought from last evening :
1.Are taking our democracy for granted because we did not FIGHT for it?
2.What will it take for us to protect it?
3. Politics is not a dirty game, we have come for the clean up.

The long answer to “who to vote for”

This is where I’ll leave it for now 🙏🏽

I don’t make the policies, argue with your leaders 🤷🏽‍♂️
