🌿 Legacy of Love No. 11: Rupi Kaur
Because the body remembers, and poetry lets it speak.
Rupi Kaur doesn’t need a thousand words to say something holy.
She crafts softness with edge,
turns silence into syllables,
and gives the wound a name you can whisper to yourself in the dark.
She showed the world that healing can rhyme,
that trauma can be translated,

✨You Were Meant To Be Here.✨
Take a moment.
Close your eyes.
And feel into the incredible, wild, improbable story that led to you.
The decisions.
The accidents.
The love stories, the heartbreaks, the wars, the crossings of land and sea—
The prayers whispered in languages you may never speak,
but still feel echoing in your bones…

Legacy of Love No. 10: Dr. Fei-Fei Li
Because intelligence without care is not wisdom—and innovation without Earth is not future.
Dr. Fei-Fei Li is a rare kind of architect.
Not of buildings, but of vision.
Not of machines, but of possibility.
She stands at the crossroads of artificial intelligence and the human soul—
and she chooses care…

To the immigrants, refugees, and families feeling fear rise again
We see you.
We feel the weight in your breath.
And we want you to know this:
🤎 You are not alone. 🤎
The threat of being sent to foreign prisons, stripped of dignity, or treated like a problem to be solved instead of a human being to be loved—
It is heartbreaking. It is wrong.

From Meltdowns to Miracles
(Listening to the Language of Every Nervous System)
Parenting isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Neither are nervous systems.
And yet… so much of the world still treats kids like they should all learn, play, speak, and feel the same way.
But neurodivergence is not a flaw—it’s a spectrum of humanity.
A rainbow of rhythm, regulation, and response…

How Thrift Shopping Helps Us Resist the Impact of Tariffs (and Capitalism’s Bait)
Let’s talk about something tender and powerful, friends — resourcefulness as rebellion.
In a moment when tariffs are making essentials more expensive, when corporate greed is spiking prices and calling it “growth,” and when the systems around us push us toward buying more and being less… we get to slow down, soften, and subvert.
Thrift shopping isn’t just cute vintage jackets and funky mugs.
It’s circular economy…

Religion and Othering Culture
There are individuals preaching fear-based religion through megaphones downtown in my local community.
“Repent your sins”
“Do not remain silent about homosexuals”
My heart feels the familiar ache of grief for the impacts of this targeted hatred.
I want you to know:
If you don’t fit the mold they preach for others to match, you are not the problem.
Read that again:
You are not the problem…

🌿 Legacy of Love No. 9: Dr. Kate Marvel
Because truth can be tender—and science can speak like a prayer.
There are people who yell to be heard.
And then there are people like Dr. Kate Marvel,
who speak with such clear, rooted truth
that the whole room leans in to listen…

🌸 Raising Whole Humans vs. “Good” Kids 🌸
(A love note to the wild ones and the ones raising them)
Let’s talk about this word:
“Good.”
It’s been showing up a lot lately…
in praise, in fear, in generational echoes.
“Be a good girl.”
“Act like a good boy.”
“That’s not what good kids do.”
But here’s the spell we’re breaking…

Legacy of Love No. 8: Mariana Mazzucato
Because true wealth isn’t built in banks—it’s born in the hands, hearts, and rhythms of the people.
Mariana Mazzucato isn’t just an economist—
She’s a systems alchemist.
A rebel scholar.
A woman who dared to ask:
Who told us that value belongs to those who extract it?

Language and the Power It Holds
Let’s talk about language, power, and the direction we’re steering this human ship.
Recently, a public figure praised the resurgence of the word “retarded” as a cultural victory. And we need to call that what it is—not clever, not rebellious, not edgy. It’s a tactic. A deliberate tactic that feeds an old, worn-out system built on hierarchy, dehumanization, and separation.
Language shapes the world.
And this kind of language? It creates tiers…

Legacy of Love No. 7: Dr. Mae Jemison
Because the stars were never out of reach—we were just waiting for a woman like her to rise.
She didn’t just reach space—
She stretched the boundaries of what little Black girls were told they could be…

How to Advocate from a Place of Love, Not Burnout
Burnout doesn’t mean you don’t care.
It means you cared so much, you tried to carry it all alone.
But here’s the truth:
We can’t carry the world on our shoulders.
We can only carry what is ours to hold —
with love, with breath, and with boundaries.
To advocate from love means…

🌿 Legacy of Love No. 6: Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett
Because brilliance, complexity, and consent can coexist.
Dr. Kizzmekia “Kizzy” Corbett is a viral immunologist, educator, and woman whose groundbreaking work helped develop the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. In the early days of the pandemic—when fear was high, information was scarce, and lives were being lost in staggering numbers—Dr. Corbett led with compassion and heart…

Respecting the Body as a Teacher
(The wisdom lives within…)
What if your child’s body wasn’t something to manage, correct, or rush through—but something to listen to?
What if their wiggles were wisdom?
Their silence… a signal?
Their tears… sacred language?
The body teaches us—if we let it….

What is Equitable Voting?
Let’s talk about what “equitable voting” really means.
It doesn’t mean we all jump through the same hoops.
It means the path to the ballot box is clear and accessible—for everyone.
And right now, that’s not what the SAVE Act is offering.
When a law requires extra documentation—like birth certificates or passports—to prove citizenship for voter registration, it creates a system where some people have to work harder to prove what others don’t.
That’s not equality.
And it’s definitely not equity…

🌿 Legacy of Love No. 5: Amanda Nguyen
Because rewriting the rules can save lives.
Amanda Nguyen is a civil rights activist, survivor, astronaut-in-training, and the founder of Rise—a global nonprofit that has helped change laws for over 100 million people.
After surviving rape and facing a justice system that offered more confusion than care, Amanda stepped outside of the box to create a path to justice:
She rewrote the law.

🌙 Rest as Resistance: Why Your Recharge Fuels the Movement 🌙
We’re not meant to be exhausted soldiers in a never-ending fight.
We’re meant to be rooted, resourced, and responsive humans in a living, breathing movement.
Rest is not laziness.
It’s how your nervous system recalibrates…

🌿 Legacy of Love No. 4: Valarie Kaur
“What if this is not the darkness of the tomb—but the darkness of the womb?”
Valarie Kaur is a civil rights leader, lawyer, storyteller, and visionary who speaks the language of the heart with the power of the law. She is the founder of the Revolutionary Love Project, a movement rooted in the belief that love is a force for social justice—not just in private relationships, but in public life, activism, and systemic change.

The SAVE Act has reached the Senate.
It sounds protective—but what it really does is make it harder for millions of eligible Americans to vote.
If passed by the Senate, this bill would require voters to show documentary proof of citizenship—like a birth certificate or passport—just to register.
