Talk to me the way you would talk to Mrs. Teri Dammit.
Talk to me how you would talk Mrs. Teri, dammit… Those are the words that fell out of my very frustrated mouth and through the house to only fall loosely on the ears of my 8 (going on 16) year old daughter. It was the third time in less than a half-hour that I had asked her to just put the fitted sheet on the bed so that she could take her ass to sleep. A task that now takes us anywhere upwards of an hour and a half, bordering two hours. My patience was low. I could have been asleep now for hours and perhaps still needed more rest but not my little miss. The only motor with more juice, at this point, is her mouth.

Why loving yourself is the hardest easiest thing you'll ever do.
The internets are littered with “love yourself,” get right within, self-care type bullshit. Trust me, loving yourself is as important as necessary, so a good portion of those posts probably contain beneficial stuff. In fact, the supple bosom of the interwebs is where found I found the tender embrace of Brene Brown, Lorin Ken, and The Holistic Psychologist. It’s where I would turn to daily to hear an uplifting word from Marianne Williamson, Deepak, Iyanla, or Abraham Hicks (yes beloved, your girl has been in the work, in the mud, the gym… you get it).
