This post is such a powerful reminder for women (and men!). I was raised by a mother and grandmother who didn’t have financial freedom or access to the kind of education or autonomy that would’ve allowed them to leave relationships that weren’t aligned. So from early on, I was taught to be independent, to do it all on my own, and to never need a man.

But that message, while protective, took root in ways that later held me back. I became overly self-reliant, convinced I had to carry everything alone, and that a man could never truly support me in the ways I longed for. It’s taken time, reflection, and unlearning to realize how much of that narrative was shaped by fear, not truth.

Now, I’m in a deeply fulfilling relationship with the kind of man you speak about — someone who supports me in the way I need, who uplifts my voice. I've learned to soften, to trust interdependence, and to open my heart to a good man - and it's been transformative.

Thank you for being a voice for this kind of partnership, and for reminding us that healthy love always expands us. We need more examples of what’s possible when growth, honesty, and an open heart meet. Sending hug from Lisbon x
