QUOTES

“So there’s mental boundaries, physical boundaries, sexual boundaries, spiritual boundaries and we get to say what those boundaries are. So when we're teaching that to kids, we need to know what those are for ourselves.” - Rosalia

“Sexuality is such a powerful force, that is part of our humanity that we need to reclaim and it actually gives you so much more power in all other areas of your life. It's almost like reclaiming a part of yourself that you had pushed away and you can now welcome back in and integrate into your whole self.” - Rosalia

THIS WEEK’S INTENTION

I am empowered to create and set boundaries with full love and total ease.
