| "I get to be now" is my mantra lately, friends. Make it yours as well. This is what it's about: But now—we get to be. We get to be seen. We get to be loud. We get to be tender, messy, awkward, joyful, complicated, fully ourselves. We no longer have to twist or change to fit into spaces that were never built with us in mind. The rules that once kept us small, the rules we followed to protect ourselves, are not permanent. They can be rewritten. And we are the ones holding the pen. Every time we take up space with our whole selves, every time we allow our voices, our laughter, our tears, and our truths to be witnessed—we are rewriting what’s possible. So today, take a deep breath and remind yourself: You get to be. All of you. Always. Jose 💛

Hi friend, If you’ve ever found yourself shutting down or pulling away when things get uncomfortable in a relationship, you’re not alone. That instinct to retreat can be part of an avoidant attachment pattern, a learned way of protecting yourself when connection feels risky. But here’s an important reframe: Managing avoidant attachment doesn’t mean you’ll never pull away again. It’s not about perfection. It’s about awareness. The real growth happens in that small space between impulse and...
Hi friend, Have you ever scrolled through Instagram and seen a post that made you pause—something like, “Let yourself be selfish”—and thought, yes! …or maybe hmm, that doesn’t feel right to me? Here’s the thing: most posts you see online exist somewhere on a spectrum. For someone who’s spent their life putting everyone else first, that “be selfish” message might be exactly the medicine they need. But for someone who’s already great at setting boundaries, maybe what they really need to...
