The Girls that Get It, Don’t CARE.

Growing up in an environment where I wasn’t allowed to express my emotions—without being judged, ridiculed, or labeled as “too emotional,” resulted in me living in a state of defense. I’ve argued. I’ve got into physical altercations. And in those moments, I’ve been called angry, crazy, or a crash-out.

But… why do I care?

Why am I allowing someone to control me to the point of no return?

Why am I letting them pull me so far out of character, where my reaction could cost me everything in seconds?

I get it - You feel like you’re not about to let anybody have one up on you.

I’ve been there.

I get it - You shut down, then overthink, overanalyze everything that took place.

I’ve been there.

I get it - You think about all the should’ve, would’ve and could’ve’s

I’ve been there.

I get it - You feel like you’ve been tried or played with, so your next response is defense.

I’ve been there.

I get it - You feel like some people don’t even have the room to speak on anything about you, so you fight back with words.

(Side note: hurt people only hurt people.)

Done that too.

Trust me when I say there isn’t an emotion I haven’t felt in terms of defenses.

But still… why do you care?

Because when you care, you give them the keys.

You hand over your peace, your power, your softness. You let them pull you out of alignment and drag you into places you’ve already outgrown.

I know—it feels like you’re standing up for yourself. It feels like you’re protecting your name. But most times, protecting your peace is standing up for yourself. Silence is the power move. Walking away is the win.

keep your cool babe ;)

You don’t need to match the energy. You are the energy ✨

You are not here to entertain people’s projections, triggers, or tactics.

You’re here to heal.

You’re here to grow.

You’re here to respond, not react.

Unapologetically. Always.
