If 2025 tested your peace, your patience, and your nervous system… you’re not alone. 🤎✨
So many women have been carrying the weight of burnout quietly while still showing up for work, family, business, and everyone else around them. But one thing we’re learning in this season? Rest is not a reward. It’s a necessity.
In our latest BrownStyle Magazine feature, @execcoachblades opens up about recognizing the warning signs of burnout, protecting your well-being, and why ambitious women deserve support too.
From brain fog and exhaustion to feeling emotionally disconnected, this conversation is the reminder so many of us didn’t know we needed. ✨
Because healing, slowing down, and choosing yourself is part of the Soulful Soft Life too. 🤎

There’s something powerful about a room filled with women walking boldly in their purpose. ✨🤎
The 2026 Dream Chaser Brunch by @smoocheswomanmagazine was a beautiful reminder that sisterhood, storytelling, and community still matter. From heartfelt conversations to unforgettable moments of connection, the energy in the room was unmatched.
We’re still smiling over the love shown to BrownStyle Magazine and our founder, Tweety, during this special celebration. 🥹✨
“BrownStyle Magazine was created as a safe space for women to live their Soulful Soft Life.” 🤎

@BrownStyle Magazine sent me to cover the release of The Mental Side of Things by Kennie Crawford and I left with far more than content.
I came to cover the story, but somehow the story ended up speaking to me too. lol
Huge thank you to @asoimmaculate Founder of M.A.M.A. Inc. for welcoming us into this intentional space and @itsmskennie …you inspire me, ma’am. Thank you for answering your assignment with courage and faith like you do.🫶🏾
📚 The Mental Side of Things available now on Amazon.

Everyone tells you to find a mentor, but what if that’s only HALF the story?
@bethnyricks breaks down the real tea on career growth and how mentorship builds your skills, but sponsorship opens doors you didn’t even know existed.
It’s not just about who pours into you but also who speaks your name in rooms you’re not in. ✨🤎
If you’re ready to level up your career, this is a must-read.

I had the BEST time being outdoors at @woodlandparkzoo with @brownstyle while shooting Episode 7 of @jazaroundthetown 🎬🎉💫
From the cool exhibits, to the amazing animals, to the super friendly staff….a huge s/o to the entire Woodland Park Zoo team for hosting such an awesome Media Day! ✨
From the ribbon cutting to the warm welcome, the smiles, and the hospitality… y’all made the experience so special ❤️
BrownStyle received an exclusive invite to preview one of Woodland Park Zoo’s newest exhibits before its grand opening in May, the Forest Trailhead 🐾✨!
Forest Trailhead is an all-new, immersive exhibit featuring treetop paths, tree kangaroos, red pandas, kea parrots, and a beautiful new space designed for storytelling, discovery, and learning.
There is already so much to love about Woodland Park Zoo, but this new exhibit makes it the perfect time to plan a trip to Seattle and visit! 💫
Be sure to follow @brownstyle and @jazaroundthetown for more amazing places to explore in Seattle!
See you all at the Zoo!

At BrownStyle Magazine, we’re spotlighting the real strategies women are using to protect their peace, redefine success, and build lives rooted in alignment—not burnout.
Meet @huffprgirl
From the outside, her fast-paced media career could easily scream “hustle culture.”
But sit with her for five minutes, and you’ll feel something different: peace, clarity, and intention.
✨ “I don’t treat self-care like an afterthought… I build my schedule around it.”
✨ Rest isn’t a reward—it’s a requirement
✨ And success? It feels better when it’s shared, not competed for
This is your gentle reminder that:
🤎You don’t have to prove your worth through exhaustion.
🤎You don’t have to say yes to everything to be successful.
🤎And you definitely don’t have to abandon yourself to build something meaningful.
💭 A question to sit with today:
Does this actually feel good to me?
Because sometimes the softest (and strongest) move you can make is choosing peace over pressure.
👇🏾 Drop a “SOULFUL SOFT LIFE” if you’re choosing alignment over burnout.

“I’m fine.” Is what we say. But are you really?
For so many high-achieving women, especially Black and Brown women, “fine” becomes a script we perform, not a truth we live. We show up polished, productive, and praised while quietly running on empty.
In this powerful piece by @intentionalqueenjourney we’re unpacking high-functioning burnout—the kind that looks like success on the outside but feels like survival on the inside.
Because:
✨ Being “the strong one” can become a silent burden
✨ Over-functioning can turn into your identity
✨ And self-neglect can start to feel normal
So we’re asking you:
What becomes possible when you stop saying “I’m fine” and start telling yourself the truth?✨🤎
👇🏾 Drop a “CHOOSING ME” in the comments if you’re done running on empty.
