“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” — Audre Lorde Listen, I know how it goes during womens history month. You see the posts, the quotes, the highlight reels of these incredible women who changed the world. And it’s inspiring, but sis… it can also feel low-key exhausting. You’re over here trying to pass your midterms, manage your side hustle, deal with that chaotic group chat, and maybe even figure out how to

Forgiveness is for You, Sis. Not for Them. | TechMae “Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. Forgiveness is you deciding to put the cup down.” Listen, I need you to hear this, and hear it good. That thing you’re holding onto? The grudge against your ex who played you, the friend who betrayed your trust, the family member who just doesn’t get it, or even the anger you have for yourself over that one big

“Being alone is a physical state. Being lonely is an emotional one. And sis, mastering the difference is your secret weapon.” Listen, I need you to get this. That feeling you get when your roommate is out with her friends, or you’re eating lunch by yourself on campus, or you’re scrolling on a Friday night while everyone else’s life looks perfect?

Between your 8 AM lecture, your part-time job that barely covers rent, and the group project from hell, you don’t exactly feel like the star of a movie. You feel like the overworked production assistant fetching coffee for

“Your space should hold you, not just your stuff. Especially when it’s a small apartment.” Listen, I know exactly what you’re dealing with. You finally got your own spot—or maybe you’re sharing it with a roommate who leaves dishes in the sink for a week. It’s a small apartment, probably your first, and it’s supposed to feel like freedom. But right now, it just feels… cramped. And chaotic. Between your class schedule, your side hustle, and the general noise of life, you need

The Real Talk About Weight Gain and Self-Acceptance | TechMae “Your body changing is not a betrayal. It’s just life happening to you, the same way your bank account or your class schedule changes. The goal isn’t to fight it forever. The goal is to make peace with the girl in the mirror so you can go live your actual life.” Listen, I need you to be real with me for a second. When you looked in the mirror this morning and felt

“The most important conversation about her body isn’t about her body at all. It’s about everything else she is.” Listen, sis. You know that knot in your stomach when you see her scrolling? Or that pang when she makes a comment about her thighs? That’s the signal. The conversation about body image is already happening in your house—it’s just happening in whispers, in mirrors, and on screens.
