Dear Maya, oooooft. It's been a busy few weeks, but I'm getting back on track. I've had to activate all my support systems recently, and I'm so grateful for everyone in my life.

I know one day you'll have a wonderful set of friends and family who you can lean on in any situation. You are never alone in this world, and you are so loved!

Dear Maya,

Pour your emotions into your craft - let them create something beautiful.

Dear Maya, I forgot to tell you that life is not linear.

Dear Maya,

Sometimes, it feels like the whole world is against you, but when you stick to your gut, you can't go wrong. Let others fall into their accountability—we can't make them see through our lens. But we can be there for them when they finally dust off their glasses and see clearly.

Dear Maya, check in with yourself (intuition), look for the clues, and make a decision. Sometimes it's ok to make it that simple.

Dear Maya, back for part 2! We usually don't make changes out of the blue. Most times, it is a situation or event that creates change. Don't forget your 'why' and always stay true to self.

Dear Maya, once you've answered the questions in the audio, what can you do to follow through?

Dear Maya,

It's been 3 days since this recording and I'm in my anger phase. He took the first "swing" and I should have taken mine. Nevertheless, I'm grateful that I was unharmed and I'm safe.

Dear Maya, as we grow older, our perspectives often shift from black-and-white to shades of gray. The key is to have patience and grace for those going through challenges that have gray areas. Not every decision can be acted on right away.

Dear Maya, there is a delicate art to building lasting relationships.

Key takeaways:

-Finding partners who align with your values

-Recognizing and setting healthy boundaries

-Dealing with bullying and personal insecurities

-Embracing life's lessons, even the uncomfortable ones
