Weekend Mantra

 

"Catch up on the 'Take Care with Your Words' series here."

Take Care with Your Words

 

The "Reminder"

In this week’s Mental Health Check-In, we discussed the danger of underestimating small things. A small match starts a forest fire. A small sentence ruins a relationship.

Have you listened to the podcast yet? We’re diving deep into how to choose peace over chaos.

Drop a 🕯️ if you are choosing peace this week.

 

This Week's Mantra

 

"I choose to pause before I speak, ensuring my words build rather than break."

Happy Monday! We are carrying yesterday’s wisdom into the work week. 💜

If "words are like eggs," how do we make sure we don't drop them? We use the THINK method. Before you type that email, respond to that text, or speak in that meeting, run it through this filter:

T — Take a moment H — Hold your peace I — Intentionally choose your words N — Nurture positive thoughts K — Keep your focus aligned

Which letter is hardest for you to practice? For me, today it’s "T" — taking a moment! Let me know in the comments. 👇🏾
