🍍 Have you heard of the term “man keeping”? 🍍 I heard Esther Perel use it in a recent episode and honestly it’s one of those words that kind of makes sense. 🍍 It’s not terrible because we want to support our partners but what happens when that goes into overdrive? Lisa 🙋‍♀️

🍊 Seriously sometimes it’s as simple as this. 🧘‍♀️A nice smelling body wash, a few deep breaths, and a few seconds. 🍊Keep it simple and feel the difference.

💙 Be kind 💙 A little reminder that even in the middle of conflict or life noise, how we treat each other still matters more than anything. Kindness matters - so do you.

☕️As women and parents, we’re often taught that our needs come last.

☕️That taking time for ourselves is selfish, or that it only “counts” if it’s substantial.

☕️But I’ve learned that tiny, regular acts of self-love can be more powerful than occasional grand gestures.

☕️This small, consistent practice has taught me that self-care isn’t measured in hours – it’s measured in presence.

☕️It’s not about how long you take; it’s about being intentional with the time you have.
