U.S. Representative and internet auntie, Maxine Waters told the world six years ago that we were reclaiming our time, and apparently the girlies felt that. From leading the charge in letting go of things that don\u2019t serve us to promoting self-love and esteem, Black women have been showing up for themselves and we love to see it. Similar to the idea of self-care being an act of resistance coined by the iconic Audre Lorde, an article in ELLE describes the experience for Black women as \u201ca revolutionary act.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the trial and ruling in 2022, I\u2019m sure fans and feminists alike held our breath as the internet continued tearing apart Megan the Stallion after two brutal years of accusations and assumptions. But it has been beautiful seeing the Houston rapper take space to heal after the release of Traumazine, in the gym, on vacation, and on the timeline cutting up. And I don\u2019t know about you, but I am living for natural hair Meg. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you ever need a recommendation for practicing self-care, take a quick trip to Tracee Ellis Ross\u2019s Instagram page and count the ways. The actress can be found constantly lounging, relaxing in the water, or loving on herself in a way that\u2019s both comical and inspiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
