Self-awareness isn’t just a buzzword — it’s a life skill. It helps us understand our emotions, align with our values, and grow in how we show up for others. 🌿 Whether it’s journaling, meditation, prayer, or honest feedback — each practice offers a mirror to see ourselves more clearly. 💬 Take a moment to vote in the poll: Which practice helps you grow in self-awareness the most? Let’s learn from each other and grow together.

Self-awareness is the foundation of emotional intelligence, personal growth, and effective communication. 🌸 Internal self-awareness helps us understand our emotions, beliefs, and how they align with our values. 🌸 External self-awareness helps us recognize how others perceive us and how our actions impact them. Developing self-awareness takes reflection, mindfulness, and honest feedback — through journaling, meditation, or asking trusted voices for perspective. 💬What practice has helped you see yourself more clearly — journaling, meditation, feedback, or something else?

The past few weeks have felt heavy. My motivation has dipped, my drive has wavered, and this season always brings a quiet ache. From Thanksgiving through the New Year, I navigate a tender space — grieving the loss of my brother (11 years ago) and my sister (3 years ago). It’s not easy. But I’m learning to honor the process. To give myself permission to feel, to pause, to reflect. To understand that healing isn’t linear — and grief doesn’t follow a calendar. I’m sharing this because I believe in showing up with truth. And because someone else might need the reminder: You’re allowed to grieve. You’re allowed to rest. You’re allowed to be human. This season may be difficult, but I’m choosing grace over guilt. And I’m trusting that even in the quiet, I’m still growing.

This week’s coaching circle reminded me how powerful it is when Black women gather with intention. We don’t just talk — we transform.
