They told us self-love was selfish, but that was just a clever way to keep us tolerating what we don’t deserve.
Here’s the truth:
If you truly love yourself, you won’t chase breadcrumbs.
You won’t fall for narcissists.
You won’t settle for pain disguised as passion.
I used to think love meant proving myself.
Now I know it starts with protecting myself.
Self-love isn’t narcissism, it’s the antidote to it.

I had so many problems
[00:13]
and I cannot sit here and say it's their fault.
[00:18]
I'm not going to play the victim.
[00:19]
But when you put your ego aside and you look at your bullshit in the eyes and you say 'bullshit'
[00:24]
I have a problem.
[00:26]
Yes, they're bad, I know they're, they're, they're bad people.
[00:29]
everything bad in life, they are it.
[00:31]
But I have a problem and that's the only way you can grow.

Everyone thinks their purpose is to change the world… but that’s actually your mission.
Your purpose is to take care of you .. your body, your mind, your peace.
You rented a vessel to experience life in 3D. That’s your first responsibility.
But most people confuse the two.
They give themselves away, thinking they’re in service to humanity, when in reality, they’ve abandoned themselves.

You can’t have a mission if your purpose is missing.
You can’t save the world if you’re constantly saving everyone but yourself.
You can’t pour from an empty cup.
So fill yours. First. Then go light up the world ✨🫀

When you realize your soul is a fragment of God, “my body is my temple” becomes real. A piece of the divine lives here, so where are you taking God, what is God consuming, and who are you allowing to touch the temple? That awareness changes everything. You begin to love and respect yourself differently, because you’re part of something greater that you deeply honor. Without spiritual awakening, my healing would have never gone this deep. ✨

“I am peace, love, and light — but don’t get it twisted.
Healing doesn’t make you a doormat.
If you cross me, I’ll peace, love, and light your house right up.
Real spirituality is standing up for yourself, protecting your energy, and refusing to betray YOU just to keep the peace. 
Healing taught me to choose me, respect me and never betray me. Every. Single. Time.”
