đź’— February Reflections: Love Yourself First
February often centers around Valentine’s Day — hearts, flowers, romance, and relationships. But this month, in our Let’s Talk: Healing, Growing, & Empowered Women’s Community, we’re shifting the focus.
Before we talk about loving someone else…
Before we celebrate partnership or companionship…
We ask the most important question:
How are you loving yourself?
Loving yourself first isn’t selfish. It’s foundational. It sets the tone for every relationship in your life — friendships, family, romantic partners, coworkers, even your relationship with your goals and dreams.
When you love yourself first:
  1. You set healthier boundaries.
  2. You stop accepting bare minimum effort.
  3. You speak to yourself with kindness instead of criticism.
  4. You choose environments that align with your peace.
Self-love isn’t just bubble baths and affirmations (though those are beautiful too). It’s:
  1. Resting when you’re tired.
  2. Saying no without guilt.
  3. Seeking support when you’re struggling.
  4. Forgiving yourself for past mistakes.
  5. Investing in your healing.
This Valentine’s Day, whether you’re partnered, single, healing, or somewhere in between, remember this:
đź’— You are not waiting to be chosen.
đź’— You are already worthy.
đź’— You are already enough.
✨ Weekly Reflection Questions:
  1. In what ways have I been neglecting myself?
  2. What does loving myself consistently look like?
  3. What is one boundary I can set this month as an act of self-love?
  4. How can I celebrate myself this Valentine’s Day?
📝 Journal Prompt:
“Dear Me, I promise to love you by…”
