-Your roles should serve you, not drain you: Align your responsibilities with your strengths and values, rather than trying to meet societal expectations.
-Balance masculine and feminine energies: Structure (masculine) and intuition (feminine) work together to create a fulfilling life.
-Asking for help is a strength: Releasing hyper-independence allows for more efficiency and connection.
-Boundaries are an act of self-care: Setting clear expectations helps preserve energy and maintain harmony.
