Charis, I noticed that you were all In to support everybody and everyone. You have given and giveth to all who ask out of the goodness and kindness of your heart. I hate to say it, but people are not looking out for your best interest, whether they are spiritual individuals, family, or friends.
You have said that God has blessed you, and He has, He has also blessed you with a great mind.​ ​A mind where you can determine who is friend or foe,​ aware of the vipers that have crept into your Empire and are trying to make​ their way into your heart.​ Yes, it is time to say NO! ​"​No, I am not in a place to support you at this time, and I’m not sure when I will be again, yet I appreciate you considering me for the opportunity to help​". In other words, the Empire you have built will fall, and those who had their hand out will not be present to help you build it back up. You will look for them, but they will not be there, nowhere to be found.

Someone like you in a position of wealth, said I have two phones, one for my wife,​ children, and a few good friends and one for those who always have their hands out ​(even family)​ ​asking for this and that, to which I respond, “I’m not in a position to help” after a few replies like that, they stop asking and calling, I just helped them to be independent and find their​ way.​

​Charis, You are on the right path, stay there for a good while….No is not a bad word, it is a word needed for survival. A word that You need to survive, and be at peace.

Thank you for being Transparent, Honest, and Unapologetic! You just described my life. Where I am right now and how I’m feeling in this moment. I’ve been taking care of others for so long and losing myself in the process. Isn’t it funny, how when we finally decide to change the narrative, people look at us as if we’re the problem?!? Well, honey, No More! I made the decision to invest in me! However and whatever that means without apology or explanation. Thank you again for validating the Fierceness within me! God bless your life and legacy.

I get it! As my father in law has ministered to me “Self Care is Not Selfish”. You cannot drink from an empty cup, so do what makes you sing. Release what makes you frown and move in your authentic self, unapologically and without excuses or explanations. No is an ENTIRE sentence. Than you for being so transparent and reminding us of our worth.

LISSSSSEN!!! All of this…. I’m choosing me this time💐

I am happy to see that you are doing SELF CARE. Always remember God first you second and everyone else follows. It is okay to say NO and keep moving. Continue to be a blessing to the world of fashion.
