Today I wanted to give some love to some powerful young minds!! Creating the needed change we all want to see in the world!!! Super inspiring!! Let’s be blinded by the light!!! Below is the magnificent Kheris Rogers. After being bullied in the first grade her older sister Taylor posted a beautiful picture of Kheris on Twitter, and hashtagged #FlexinInHerComplexion. It inspired so many people she made it a brand which made her New York Fashion Week’s youngest fashion designer EVER! 11 years old!!! I’ve posted her before because I think she is so special! And there are more amazing minds in my story... Prepare to be blinded by the light and get ready to feel GOOD!! I got you!! Happy Sunday beautiful souls!! 🌈🌈🌈 ☀️ ☀️☀️ #inspiration

My BFF/Sister and I had a DOPE conversation last night!! We shared a lot of things that we are thinking about and working on in ourselves. One of the things I shared is that I’ve been working on LISTENING to myself, getting used to hearing the voice inside of ME! What is that instinct that pops up upon making a decision for yourself? I realize I’ve always had trouble with this. We live in such a noisy world and there are so many people we love and admire that have a million opinions and honestly, since the day we were born we were taught to please other people. To be a “nice” girl or a “good” boy but we are rarely taught to listen to ourselves. To cultivate our inner voice and to be secure in what the outcome of what that will bring without approval or validation. So, I’ve been challenging myself to only “go with the gut” —you KNOW what you feel and what you need. U KNOW it!!! How many times have you known you didn’t want to do something and talked yourself into doing it for one reason or another only to find out that after you did it you wished you hadn’t and you’re kicking yourself for not listening to yourself in the first place!!??? Oh man! I have been there tooooo many times!! So that’s why I’m encouraging myself to just listen to my first instinct and trust that it leads me where I need to go and not second guess it or doubt it.

It’s hard, I don’t always do it. But when I DO, I feel a power in me and a pride in me that gets stronger.
I love this pic cause it reflects this. All these voices, opinions and people outside of us and around us filling our heads but I’m choosing to stand strong in the middle of my instinct. Go with the gut!
Do u feel me on this? When have you gone with your gut? Or not?

Big love to Rosalía

The girl in this photo already thought she knew it all. Tough and strong on the outside but so unsure in so many ways on the inside. Unsure of who she was, who she was meant to be and how she was going to get there.

On my journey I’ve come to realize so much of what lives inside of us that creates roadblocks and insecurities for us doesn’t even belong to us. It's come from other people. Our mothers. Our fathers. Our first serious relationship. The people that DIDN'T show up. Other people's pain. Other people's fears.
So #IAmBecoming more fearless. More in touch with what is mine and what I want to hold inside of me — what I want to believe in and create! I am becoming aware of what I want to let go of…especially those things that were given to me by people living in fear! #IAmBecoming more open, more in love with myself and becoming able to let go of anything that doesn’t serve the endless possibility within me 💥💥💥
What are you becoming??? Big love to Michelle Obama for your beautiful book “I Am Becoming” !!! 💜💜💜 https://becomingmichelleobama.com/
