CROWNED —
when folk ask me what i’ve been up to all 2019, i really can’t give a straight forward answer because it just depends on your vantage point. one thing is for certain is that i have been discovering an even deeper well of self love. sure, i can purchase a candle which will fill my space with aroma but i’ve taken 2019 to explore *RADICAL* self love. asking myself:
- can i love myself even when i feel unloveable?
- can i love myself through grief and depression?
- can i find love in moments where i do not feel successful?
- can i love myself even when i’m still at the junction of growth & it’s not pretty?
2019 answered a yes. and it was a bellowing YES that started with my world opening up to new possibilities and relationships to support the breadth of the love i’d discovered for myself, my universe and my community.

I copped @shavonnebee’s “Busy Loving Myself” from @redwandboutique as a way to commemorate this year’s growth groove. i also danced in my room and twirled around, pants-less to celebrate a year of growth, amazing friends and the vitality to continuously love myself through it all. when they ask you “whatchu been up to?” and notice your hair has grown, intellect is bussin and your skin has glown and yes that ass is sittin, let them know you’ve been busy loving yourself 🥰
