Here’s the truth you need to hear: withdrawal is Here’s the truth you need to hear: withdrawal is a choice. The most regulated, self-respecting thing you can learn to do when that happens is: 

• stop auditioning for understanding 
• stop overexplaining 
• stop chasing reconciliation
• stop managing other people’s emotions
• stop reopening wounds just to prove you’re “loving” 

Jesus modeled for us that once you’ve shown up honestly, clearly, and with care, the rest isn’t yours to fix.

“For we are each responsible for our own conduct.” — Galatians‬ ‭6‬:‭5‬ ‭

Unfortunately, most of the time, what usually happens next is people may act like nothing happened, or reach out casually without addressing it, or frame the distance as YOU pulling away.

But let the truth stand on its own. Let your nervous system settle. Go live your life. Because there’s a quiet strength in not chasing, not correcting, not proving. 

Here’s three scriptures that’s encouraged me:

1️⃣ “A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.” — Proverbs 18:2

2️⃣ “If possible, to the best of your ability, live at peace with all people. Don’t try to get revenge for yourselves, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath.” — Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭18-19‬ ‭

3️⃣ “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” — Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭23‬ ‭

Bottom line, let people choose you…or not. Happy Monday Yall ❤️

2️⃣ “Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.” — Psalms‬ ‭30‬:‭5‬ ‭

3️⃣ “Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you…” — Psalms‬ ‭55‬:‭22‬ ‭

4️⃣ “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” — Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬ ‭

5️⃣ “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.” — Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭34‬ ‭‬‬

6️⃣ “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.” — Proverbs‬ ‭3‬:‭5‬ ‭NLT‬‬

7️⃣ “What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us?” — Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭31‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Feel free to take what you need. Happy Wednesday yall ❤️

Here’s everything I’m done doing:

❌ Explaining my decisions to feel understood
❌ Shrinking myself to make others comfortable
❌ Feeling guilty after saying no
❌ Needing to be liked to feel loved
❌ Saying “I’m fine” when I’m actually overwhelmed
❌ Doing things out of obligation vs alignment
❌ Living from pressure instead of peace
❌ Confusing kindness with self-abandonment

If you’re on this journey too, hello and welcome 🫶🏽

How to Clean A Stubborn Stovetop Using Two Ingredients You Probably Have Right Now

I’ve tried many methods to get my white gas stove in our apartment to bounce back. It seems like nothing was working. 

The yellow rings around each eye just kept getting worse and worse. Just by looking at it, I’m sure you can tell which eye I use the most.

(Hint: it’s the one on the bottom right — lol!) 

After doing some research and asking my subscribers for some tips, I finally found a method that actually worked!

And with a bit of patience and elbow grease, this will work for your stovetop too! 

Here’s what you’ll need: 

  • Baking soda
  • Hydrogen peroxide 
  • Brillo pads 

You can find all three at your local Dollar Tree if you don’t already have these items in your kitchen. 

Now let’s get into how I was able to get my gas stovetop from this: 

To this: 

How to Clean A Stubborn Stovetop 

Step 1: Add baking soda and peroxide in a bowl

Mix well until you get a creamy consistency. 

Step 2: Apply baking soda paste directly onto stains 

I applied it using a plastic knife I had lying around.

Step 3: Set a time for 15 minutes. 

This will need to sit for a while to give the peroxide some time to work it’s magic! 

Step 4: Grab your Brillo pads. 

It’s time to scrub your life away — just kidding, but you will be scrubbing for a few minutes. 

Step 5: Wipe clean! 

By now your stovetop should be sparkling and look like new again.
