Also wanted to thank you for all the fair olive skin videos, I’m not olive but my sister is and has always had a hard time figuring out her “witchy” undertones as she calls them 😂

You’re so well versed.. You don’t need to rely on the habit of “if that makes sense?” after every valid idea. It’s self-deprecating and undermines your worthy points.. It’s okay to own what you know, especially when you’re sharing your own experience. My first year as a nurse, I’d end every statement speaking to patients like that.. “It’s usually easier to eat soup with a spoon, instead of a fork.. If that makes sense?” Or even to my higher ups.. “I needed to piggyback that, so he didn’t his bowels, if that makes sense?” Sis, it makes sense to you, and you did your diligence, then that’s why we’re all watching. Be your sassy and brassy self
