when i got sick of my shit. i changed. #Repost @chanteburkett • • • • • #ParentTalk So #minime is officially in #preteen and All I can think of is how it’s not the same when I was little girl - I don’t need to not hold back and be sure to teach my daughter everything about her body and how to negative to life before she’s heavily influenced by friends and others. We kind of jumped on this early on- like almost 2 years ago (when she walked in on me and saw my lady friend lol) but of course the giggles and the embarrassing phase had to pass. Now we’re going all in and I’m giving her books to read - we’re watching videos - and having real conversations. It’s safe to say that we’re currently at a comfortable spot with chatting about puberty and her lady friend that’s set to start soon😬 if you have a daughter in preteen or a teen I highly suggest this book called “Celebrate Your Body (and the Changes Too!) it’s the ultimate #puberty book for girls 🙌🏾 (it has great illustrations) it’s the book I wish I had as a teen. I’ve linked it for fellow mothers, just click the link in my bio 😉Moms we have to get our little ladies ready 🤗 P.S. #minime also rocks girls plus click link in bio to shop her look (these jeggings are currently on sale for $10 the fit is so good she’s a size 16 -and she’s TALLL) . . . #littleblackgirl #girlswear #girlsstyle #blackgirlmagic #tweengirls #blackgirlhair #tweengirl #girlootd #tweengirlhairstyle #girlsstyles #tweenhairstyles #tween #teenfashion #tweens #tweenfashion  #teenstyle #tweenclothing  #tweenootd #girlshairstyles #tweenstyle #tweenager #tweenlife #ocalaflorida #AllAtJCP #Repost @erin.rdn.atl • • • • • I was reading “The Body is Not An Apology” this morning✨ @sonyareneetaylor • When did it become natural to dishonor my body? • Why is it normal to be self-deprecating? • Why does that often translate into disrespecting those around us? • Radical self love IS the transformative experience we need. And as Sonya says, it is in us already✨✨✨ Rarotonga was beautiful! i have been thinking lots about what we need as humans to avoid the spiritual extinction that will certainly kill us if nature doesn't first. In this age of reckoning where we are called to sort through what to do with the infections of our world we seem to be committed to throwing everything away. As i saw on a post from my friend @favianna1, there is no away. How do we practice tenderness, even in the face of harm. Tender doesn't mean lack of accountability. it doesn't mean forgiveness. It does mean " but for the grace of God/Karma/Privilege/Education/Mentors/Guides/Help/Luck there go i. We are all one old tweet away from being cancelled. Be tender with your failures. Learn to be tender with the failures, incomplete analysis, indoctrination into systems that you have and others have. Be tender with our imperfect humanity. Otherwise we will destroy ourselves #Repost @wherechangestarted • • • • • A few things to think about before you share that next post. . Simply resharing content on social media without intention or having actively engaged with it is performative. It is also incredibly harmful to black, indigenous, and people of color when social media posting is done recklessly. . Sign up for the Social Media Webinar scheduled for next Tuesday via the link in my bio to learn more about how you can avoid engaging in harmful behavior while becoming antiracist. ➖ #becomingantiracist #wherechangestarted #changestartedwithme #antiracism #antiracismeducation #socialjustice #racialequality #beantiracist #dismantlewhitesupremacy #performativeallyship
