Happy Monday, Melaninaires! 💎

Quick question: Why do we treat our goals like optional side quests but treat other people's emergencies like main missions?

Someone texts "can you help me with something?" and suddenly we're available, flexible, and ready to drop everything. But when it comes to that thing WE said we'd do for ourselves? "Eh, maybe later. I'm tired. Mercury's in retrograde. My left sock feels weird."

THIS WEEK, we're flipping that script.

Your goals are not the thing you do if you have time left over after everyone else gets what they need. Your growth is not a "maybe if I'm not too tired" situation. Your progress is not less important than being available 24/7 for people who aren't even thinking about you right now.

So here's your assignment: Treat yourself like someone you actually care about. Show up for YOU the way you show up for everybody else.

Be unavailable for distractions. Be committed to your own plan. Be that person who says "I can't, I have something I need to do" and actually means it.

Drop a 🚫 if you're setting boundaries with yourself AND others this week!
