Chances are you have some sort of wound tied to your inner child. This wound could come up for a variety of reasons. Maybe your parents weren't around much, your childhood bestie moved away, you moved around a lot, you had a bully, you went through psychological or physical abuse, or you come from a broken family. These experiences (and others I haven’t added), left a significant mark on you and the pain sometimes resurfaces seemingly out of nowhere. When it comes to healing

We’re almost at the end of our body confidence series! 🙌🏾I just wanna say I’m so proud of myself for staying consistent and getting here. This will be the final blog post of the series and I thought what better way to close this conversation than to close this chapter than to talk about how we can start practicing falling in love with our bodies where they’re at. That way if you choose to make any changes to your body it comes from love and not hate. This post will basicall

Last Saturday when I posted this reel to promote last week’s blog post, I got a bunch of comments (which I’ve since deleted) that said ‘just work out’ ‘go to the gym’ and all the things around that. I’ve been very critical about my body for a really long time and I’ve put myself through some really crazy diets, fasts and workout programs with the aim of losing weight and no matter how much weight I lost, I was never really happy with my body. See that’s the thing, going to th

This blog post is quite different from the rest. It’s a journal entry & letter to myself and of course, anyone who resonates. Hi Wendy -past & present versions. I’m writing to us today because I feel like I need to let go and forgive us, forgive me for all the ways we’ve fallen short of who we are & want to be. Holding on to this guilt isn’t making me any better or proving how sorry I am. If anything, it’s limiting my growth. Holding on to the guilt is me choosing to define m

I believe many of us have heard all this talk about love languages and if you haven’t, let me explain in a nutshell. The five love languages (words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, physical touch & acts of service) developed by Gary Chapman are basically the different ways we express and receive love. We don’t all communicate love in the same way and in that same breath, we prefer to receive love in different ways. The conversation on love languages has been foc

Your body is your home. You’re stuck with it until you die. Feeling at home in your body and connecting with it is super important for your journey with self. Whether it’s body neutrality, body love and self love, connecting with your physical body is such a wholesome experience that will take you through this journey of body love. Heck, physical touch is one of the love languages you can practice for yourself. Physical touch in this case does not mean just massages, spa trea

I’m a firm believer in loving yourself first. The fact remains that you can’t adequately and fully give love to someone else if you’re unable to love yourself. I stay saying you can’t pour from an empty cup. This season, the love season is notorious for showing other people love but hardly do we ever hear the message of showing yourself love in this season. Love is love and you deserve some too and from yourself especially. Sometime back on my Thursday Talks on Instagram, I t
