![@sacred.alchemist ✨ Things I’m doing as an ADHD Baddie to Avoid Another Toxic Relationship✨
💞Managing impulse control, understanding dopamine cravings, and setting realistic expectations so I don’t get lost in the fantasy are just a few things I’ve been doing to help me experience healthier relationship dynamics and avoid red flags—including the things I do that give big red flag energy. #selfawareness 🚩 🚩 🚩
💞in addition to self awareness, daily meditations to stay emotionally regulated, having a consistent routine, and learning to handle rejection sensitivity with self-love have been key in my journey of avoiding toxic relationships.
This summer, I’m reclaiming my self-love by focusing on myself and healing my blocks so I can fully step into this next chapter of my life and everything I’m calling in. 🌿💖
As I continue to go through this journey, I asked my sister and wellness coach @dayanamendoza.us to create an offering that I could invite others on similar paths. As we approach the halfway mark, let’s recommit to our goals together in Bloom: A 90 Day Summer of Love Challenge.
🌿Sit in on workshops centered around professional development, healing financial wounds, embracing the dark feminine, reclaiming our worth, and cultivating healthy relationships and more. Think of this as an accelerated bootcamp to the best version of you.
All from a: ✨Trauma informed ✨Decolonial practices ✨Anti-oppressive ✨ Neurodiverse lens.
👉🏽First session is this Sunday at 5pm PST. Register via bio.

The New Generational Wealth is growing up in a home where people apologize and repair after conflict.
It’s getting a call from a parent and wanting to pick up.
The new wealth is witnessing respect between your parents, even if they’re no longer together. It’s having a family that doesn’t rescue you from the consequences of your own actions. It’s not being pressured to fulfill your family’s desires but instead being allowed to follow your own path.
Wealth is growing up in a home where siblings don’t have to compete for love and can support each other. It’s not having to witness your parents betray each other.
Wealth is growing up in a home where movement is a normal part of the day.
The new generational wealth is knowing that love doesn’t leave when things get hard. It’s the quiet understanding that your worth isn’t tied to productivity, perfection, or performance. It’s growing up knowing that softness and strength can coexist, and that the foundation of a home isn’t built on silence and submission, but on honesty, repair, and respect.
Wealth is being given the freedom to explore who you are without the weight of who others expect you to be.

![She’s almost done.😬🌸🚐❄️ #CurbsideCompassion
The anticipation is real and high for us! We’ve been soo patient and overwhelmed with soo many mixed emotions this journey has brought us.
We’re trusting the timing and process of it all.
Our Faith has not waivered and the belief we have in this initiative has not changed!
Here are some examples of how we anticipate this unit will serve as:
🚐 Pop-Up Support Groups: Creating temporary safe outlet for survivors to connect and heal.
🌸 Resource Distribution: Providing essential items like hygiene products, safety kits, and food vouchers.
🚐 The Mental Health Advocacy: Offering tools like stress management workshops, mindfulness exercises, or brief trauma-informed care sessions.
By being compassionate♥️, flexible, accessible, and community-centered, #CurbsideCompassion extends the reach of domestic violence advocacy and mental health services, fostering healing, resilience, and empowerment in even the most resource-challenged communities.

![🗣️LEAVE yourself alone! Stop nitpicking on everything that is you! 🙏🏽🥹❤️🩹
#Self-criticism can lead to high levels of anxiety and depression.
Hyper-focused on your “perceived” flaws can create a downward spiral of negative thoughts/emotions that will take so much to overcome.
Constantly finding some “fault” with ourselves will only make it difficult to appreciate our strengths and the things we do love about ourselves.
Nitpicking/Self-Criticism can hinder personal growth and how you interact with others, which can strain any relationship. It will be an overwhelming experience for someone to always babysit how you feel about yourself.
This can also lead chronic stress and emotional distress! You won’t be a healthy person to be around if your constant state of dissatisfaction is hindering how you find joy or be happy with what’s going on around you. It’s depressing.
Practice self-compassion and focus on the good qualities about yourself. Take part in activities that make you feel good about yourself and help you accept you for who you are!

![🗣️LEAVE yourself alone! Stop nitpicking on everything that is you! 🙏🏽🥹❤️🩹
#Self-criticism can lead to high levels of anxiety and depression.
Hyper-focused on your “perceived” flaws can create a downward spiral of negative thoughts/emotions that will take so much to overcome.
Constantly finding some “fault” with ourselves will only make it difficult to appreciate our strengths and the things we do love about ourselves.
Nitpicking/Self-Criticism can hinder personal growth and how you interact with others, which can strain any relationship. It will be an overwhelming experience for someone to always babysit how you feel about yourself.
This can also lead chronic stress and emotional distress! You won’t be a healthy person to be around if your constant state of dissatisfaction is hindering how you find joy or be happy with what’s going on around you. It’s depressing.
Practice self-compassion and focus on the good qualities about yourself. Take part in activities that make you feel good about yourself and help you accept you for who you are!

![Reimagining how we use the word “EMPOWER” … watch 👀 til them end!🫣☺️😅
Repost @femalequotient You’ve heard the phrase “empower women,” but have you ever heard “empower men”? It’s time to rethink the word “empower” when it comes to girls and women. Saying we need to “empower” them implies that they’re waiting for someone else to grant them power as if they can’t claim it themselves.
The reality is, we already HAVE the power—we don’t need to wait for permission or validation.

It’s okay to be thankful, grateful, and grieving all at the same time. More than one thing can be true, especially during the Thanksgiving holiday season.
While we gather to celebrate the blessings in our lives, it’s natural to also feel the weight of loss, uncertainty, or heartache. The holidays can be a complex mix of joy and sorrow, and it’s important to allow space for both. In the midst of giving thanks, we can also honor what we’ve lost or are still working through.
This season, let’s remember that it’s okay to hold multiple emotions at once, and that embracing all parts of our experience—whether they’re filled with gratitude or grief—can help us heal and grow.
