“But” seems harmless, but often erases everything that came before it. It can create conflict, defensiveness, and internal misalignment—especially when your mind overrides your authority in Human Design.

💬 “I love you… but I need space” → suddenly it doesn’t feel like love.
💬 “I want to rest… but I should keep going” → the mind is winning over the body’s wisdom.

🧠 HD Angle: Mind vs. inner authority—especially for Generators/MGs ignoring sacral truth.

✨ Language Shift:

• Use "and" to hold dual truths: “I love you and I need space.”

• Use "yet" to keep growth open: “I’m not there… yet.”

🧵 Subtle swap, powerful shift. Let both be true.

Solo Yet Not Alone – Single Mother vs Solo Parent

In this episode of Types and Ties, we explore the subtle yet powerful difference between the terms single mother and solo parent—and why the words we use to describe our parenting journey matter.

We unpack:

• The social weight and stigma often attached to “single mother”

• Why “solo parent” may feel more empowering or accurate for some

• Reasons women (and men) choose to parent without a partner—from timing, trauma, and autonomy to deep soul callings

• How shifting language can shift perception, pride, and self-definition

Whether you chose this path or found yourself on it unexpectedly, this episode is a love letter to every parent showing up with their whole heart.

Because parenting solo doesn’t mean you’re less than—just that you’re leading with everything you’ve got.

How often do we say we’re fine… when we’re really not?

This week on Types and Ties, I’m lifting the lid on the word fine—what it hides, what it protects, and how we can gently open it up.
