This was the first piece I wrote regarding everything, before I could get myself to be open because it's scary. I intentionally chose images with statistics on both men's and women's stalking because it is a problem for everyone, not just women.

🧭Set Clear Boundaries
Have you ever said “yes” to something, even thoA Personal Guide to Protecting Your Energyugh everything inside you screamed “no”? 😬 Maybe you stayed late at work when you were already exhausted, agreed to help a friend when your own plate was full, or let someone speak to you in a way that didn’t feel right.

Respect Your Elders (Even If They’re Toxic): Decoding the Unspoken Rules in Brown Families
"Don’t talk back." "Say sorry first, even if you didn’t start it." “Keep your head down." If you grew up in a brown household, you know these phrases like the back of your hand.

Don't Tell Me What To Do
Ever told someone to do something and watched them instantly resist, even though they already wanted to do it? I have. And if you've paid attention, you've probably seen it too. It's not about the action itself. It's about the way it's presented. The second something feels like an order, the brain pushes back. Not because the idea is bad. But because it didn't come from them.
