    Really loved this session. The insight into your life as a mum and trials really resonated, as a mum of three (two under 4) who just feels super exhausted these days. Very inspiring and made me feel less alone, especially since you also take the time to pour into yourself ❤
    Ps, you did a whole lot of something, not “nothing” 🙏🏾

      Thank you so much, I'm glad you felt less alone. I wanted to add in how I really feel because it also gives me confirmation that these feelings are okay when someone *like you* can relate.

    I have watched your videos since before you had kids and lived in that apartment with the brick wallpaper that you put up. I am much older than you and I think you are absolutely amazing. I love your calm spirit, and I love how you choose yourself. I'm not sure what happened with you and Rob but I always admired how you took control of your own life, left your job, got your finances in order and bought your own home. You are a great role model for the young women today and I am so proud of you. And I'm glad you're making videos again because the 5 minutes with Brosia was not enough for me. Keep going and keep choosing yourself and your peace because there is nothing wrong with that.

    Brosia I have been watching you since I was in high school (I graduated 2012). I have two daughters (3 and 1) of my own and I can relate. I am at home with them and I love that for me bc I don’t trust anyone other than the great aunts and grands watching them. But ya girl is over stimulated 😂 I wear a weight vest around the house to ground me and other mindfulness activities I brought along with me prior to kids.

    Brosia, I must say that I found this video to be so engaging. Your candor and insight was so refreshing to hear while watching you slay your hair and makeup. I have always found you to be so relatable. Also happy to hear that you are getting a moment to breathe again. As a mom, we can sometimes lose ourselves as we tend to give all of our focus and attention to our kids or mate. Continue to find your peace love.

    I don’t even have the desire to clarify my transparency about having no desire to be with someone. Like I’m not offering me and I feel like that ignites something in men; they play harder or try to wait you out but I feel like don’t hold your breath. They do move too fast and try to facilitate fake connections which is a total waste of time.

    I unfortunately no longer add braiding hair to my hair routine since I have been reading from Black doctors online that there are cancer causing chemical elements in braiding hair (whether we pre-soak the hair or not). From now on, I will resort to braiding without adding any kanekelon hair at all or resort to other natural hairstyles altogether...

    So, I just finished listening to your dating bit. What you have is peace and you don’t want to deal with anyone’s crap. Women are so pressured or side-eyed when they are not dating or married to someone, and there are a lot of unhappy women out there that are struggling in their relationships but are willing to put up with nonsense just to say they have someone. There are some women I know that are genuinely happy, but so many have told me if they knew back then what they know now, they would just stay single. Based on what I’ve seen, men definitely seem to benefit more out of relationships than women. I am single, and I ultimately would like a companion, but sometimes when I think about it, I don’t want to be bothered. And, the more peace you have and the more
    stable you are, you cringe at the thought of being in a relationship with someone who isn’t there yet, and then they’re more of a burden than a blessing. I understand your perspective completely.
