If you’re underpaid, it isn't disloyal to seek a better offer. The highest form of integrity is fidelity to your values, not to your employer. Being treated fairly should be one of those values. It's your responsibility—not just your right—to motivate your employer to step up.

1/ One of most important things I've learned: Severe personality problems find *camouflage.* No one thinks "I'm a sadist" or "I'm a malignant narcissist." They find a belief system/social group that validates their most hateful, destructive impulses & construes them as virtues.

Believe you can and you're halfway there. #MondayMotivation #Mondayvibes #BelieveInYourself #MondayMood

Self-care Saturdays are a great way to relax and rejuvenate after a long week. Some of us may not have the time during the week to take care of ourselves, so dedicating a day to self-care is important. #SaturdayVibes #SaturdayMorning #SaturdayMotivation

@MelaninHealth Awesome share!

"Nuh-uh...get somebody else to do it." Delegation & boundaries will set you free.

Overthinking is when you dwell on or worry about the same thing repeatedly. People who overthink can be paralyzed by their worries and may struggle to make decisions or take action. Overthinking can be caused by — and contribute to — anxiety, and other mental health problems.

You're doing your best and I'm proud of you

All successful relationships (of any kind) have reciprocity. Reciprocity is mutual feeling of support and being valued. It looks like: 1. Mutual meeting of needs 2. Freedom to self express 3. Lack of score keeping 4. Ability to self reflect 5. Ability to take in another person's perspective 6. Predictable behavior (words align with actions) 7. Space and freedom is given as needed

@JustAriSpeaking @TherapistJayy A big yes to this!

You can be sad and not have Depression A person can be anal and not have OCD You can feel worried and not have Anxiety disorder You can shift moods/states and not have Bipolar You can be active/inattentive and not have ADHD
