Less yoga, more weights. It is taking a lot longer to reclaim my strength. The rash took a toll on more than just my skin and mind. It’s been a slow process—since January, I’ve been hitting the gym.

We’re eating healthy, and I feel good. My body will get there in its own sweet time. Lol.

While I’m not currently using any GLP-1, I have in the past, and it helped me find a healthier relationship with food. There were some issues I didn’t care for. I still need help getting back on track, but everyone is different. Always ask a professional.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, especially hearing younger girls say things like “men are awful.”
And I just… don’t agree.

Yes… some men are awful.
But so are some women.

If I’m being honest, some of the deepest hurt in my life has come from women… family, friendships, people I trusted. That doesn’t mean women are bad. It means people can be complicated, insecure, and sometimes hurtful.

What I don’t understand is how tearing down one group is supposed to lift another up.

To me, being pro-women looks like:

* Supporting each other’s choices (even if they look different from our own)
* Not disguising judgment as “jokes”
* Not competing or quietly tearing each other down
* Letting women define their own version of strength

Right now, my life looks different than it used to.
I’m creating, building, and exploring new paths—and yes, my husband is supporting me through that.

That doesn’t make me weak.
It makes me human. It makes us a team.

And I’m grateful for that support, especially during a time that feels uncertain and humbling in its own way.

I think we all could do a better job of auditing how we show up for each other—women to women, and honestly, just people to people.

Because real support doesn’t sound like criticism wrapped in humor.
And empowerment isn’t rooted in resentment.
