3 TIPS FOR RECENT GRADS:⁠ ⁠ ✨ EXHAUST ALL OP

3 TIPS FOR RECENT GRADS:⁠
⁠
✨ EXHAUST ALL OPTIONS⁠
✨There’s a quitter in every winner and every loser, respectively. The difference between the two is that winners will "quit" and halt to revisit alternative ways of approaching a situation. They exhaust all their options until they find and adapt to the one that best meets the needs of the situation. ⁠
⁠
🌈 LOOK FOR LESSONS⁠
🌈 In every situation, no matter how positive or negative, there’s a lesson. Some lessons are meant to reward you, as a gentle reminder to maintain your highest vibrations. Other lessons will rehabilitate you, as a necessary reminder to raise your lowest vibrations.⁠
⁠
💣 CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE⁠
💣 Over time, you’ll learn the difference between when you choose your challenges, and when your challenges choose you. The goal is to determine which you will dedicate your best energy to. (HINT: when the challenge chooses you, it’s karmic)⁠

What tip would you give to 2021 graduates?

How has anti-Blackness been used to shape your perspective around hair patterns and textures in YOUR community/culture?⁠
⁠
*Please note that “anti-blackness” has multiple definitions.⁠
⁠
In this video, @rosiechuong refers to the term as “anti-Blackness” with a capital B pertaining to racism against the Black community.⁠
⁠
This video covers this problematic term in the context of hair textures.⁠
⁠
“Anti-blackness” with a lowercase b pertains to colorism as it relates to skin color and features of indigenous people, who also have a range of hair textures.⁠
⁠
You are encouraged to explore how both definitions have played a role in your lived experiences.⁠

Moment of truth: in this last week I didn’t do a daily log of my hair like I said I would! In my defense, I had a 3 hour a wellness appointment at 7am last Monday that was basically therapy for me and it DRAINED me of everything I had inside.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Note to self: don’t ever book a therapy appointment at the beginning of the week or in the AM. Just saying.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I also recently put myself out there in a way that I haven’t in a very, very long time so my anxiety is at an all time high. And it will be for a while as I navigate through being “me” in a space I’ve avoided for so long. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Speaking of being in spaces you’re not used to, let’s talk about the world reopening and you showing up looking transformed.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
2020 was a time when a lot of people decided they were going to explore their identity and embrace themselves since they no longer had the pressure of looking a certain way in the office. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
What’s going to happen for you when you reenter the world? Go back into the office? Will you continue to stand up for yourself, and others, and challenge the beauty narratives you’ve been documenting on social media? ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
How are you prepping yourself for that conversation when your colleagues and counterparts question why your hair looks “different” than what they’re used to?⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We’re all coming out of this pandemic as a different person. Are you bringing the new you with you in your old spaces?
