Love Speaks Up

Love Doesn’t Look Away: When Speaking Up Is an Act of Foundation
At A Motivating Love, we define love not only by words, but by action — especially when that action requires courage. This piece is a reflection on what it means to be committed to one another in the workplace: to speak up when others can’t, to protect those who are vulnerable, and to create an environment where emotional safety is as valued as physical safety. This is the kind of love rooted in Foundation.

Silence Isn’t Always a Choice
Fear of retaliation is a real and paralyzing force. Many people stay silent — not because they don’t recognize harm, but because they fear losing their job, being labeled

This is me, minutes before I almost broke in public.

Big smile. AML shirt. Looking every bit the strong, capable, “together” leader and person people expect me to be. 
You’d never know from this picture that inside, I was already carrying a week’s worth of weight.

I’ll be judged regardless.
I’ll be judged for speaking up.
I’ll be judged for staying quiet.
I’ll be judged for waiting until I got home to release.


​So let me put it all out there…

Being independent does not equal being alone. Independence means self-governing, self-determination, and self-reliance. It does not mean you do not need others. Do not lose yourself in ...

Who are you?

​Who Are You?
I’m not asking about the usual generic responses such as “I’m a Child of God or I’m a God-fearing woman or being a mom, wife, sister, bestie, mistress, employer, cousin, etc”

Who Are You?
I can be described in many ways by several and then the same people. I’m comical, straight forward, honest, generous, a HOT mess, blunt, scary, cool, amazing, childish, afraid, thoughtful, rude, mean. I’m lots more BUT at the end of the day

My Anxiety Attack ...

I had an anxiety attack.  I felt panicked.
I was unsure of whom to call.  I didn't want to interrupt anyone's day.
I didn't feel as though I was important enough.
My anxiety attack started it all ... and I'm still amazed at it all and what's more to come.

Not Just Verbal Abuse

You yell at me and walk away
You slam the door while calling me names.
Dinner is burning, the dog is barking
This is my daily routine living in this place we call home. 
I stick by your side and accept it all
Why you ask, The love I have for you could never diminish.
We share a bond that no one could break.
I have some news ... Baby, we're expecting!

Growing through grief … it’s a process

As we navigate through life, fulfilling our purpose, inevitably we will experience some form of grief and loss. Here are a few ways we experience grief: the loss of a loved one, losing a close friend, terminated from a job, moving to another state, divorce, and so many other life impacting things may occur.
 
Grief can hit you so hard that it literally feels like your world has stopped and you have no reason to hope again.  In most cases,
