…”….. Lilith is not the story of exile. She is the story of refusal, the sacred moment when a woman chooses truth over comfort, authenticity over approval, and power over obedience.

Her story reminds us that walking away is not failure. It is initiation.

Every time you choose your voice instead of silence, your desire instead of suppression, your path instead of the one forced upon you, you are walking the path of Lilith. You are remembering that sovereignty is not given, it is claimed.

Many fear Lilith because she cannot be negotiated with, controlled, or reshaped to fit expectations. But that is exactly why she is medicine for those who have spent too long shrinking to survive. She teaches that the parts of you called “too much,” “too emotional,” “too intense,” or “too independent” are not flaws, they are the untamed power that was always meant to lead your life.

Lilith energy asks one simple question:Where in your life are you still asking permission to exist fully?

The moment you stop asking, you stop abandoning yourself. And in that moment, the exile ends because you finally come home to your own power……”…..

…”….. I felt absolutely horrible… but I tried my best not to look like it 😭

Fertility hormones had me on edge, bloated, and questioning every life choice. I was not my best self. I was, however, still in glam. Lawd, help me. LOL

Even my dear @nicogovan caught a stray… he was genuinely trying to feed my irritation away and got more spice than he bargained for. I’m sorry 😞. Thank you to @keelywatson, who comforted me with love; @kylerichards18 , who checked on me; @kathyhilton , who gave me constant hugs, and @rachelzoe, who said “you look beautiful, let’s take a selfie!” Y’all reminded me that this too shall pass (preferably quickly).

One conversation tested my spirit (no names, no notes). I’ll leave it there. Growth looks like restraint… and a well-timed deep breath.

We sang, we cake’d, we celebrated @theprettymess’s birthday properly 🎂🎶 Because joy still finds you … even mid-hormone spiral.

Lesson of the trip: On off days, life still happens… and so do the moments worth keeping.

In ancient Greece, starting around the 4th century BC, a unique class of women known as hetairai, or 'companions', existed alongside wives and common prostitutes.

Unlike most women of the era, these companions were often highly educated in arts, philosophy, and social graces. This allowed them to offer intellectual stimulation in addition to companionship.

They were fixtures at symposia, which were all-male drinking parties. There, they could debate literature and politics with the most powerful men in society, a privilege unheard of for married women. 🏛️

Many hetairai were not just companions but also shrewd businesswomen who controlled their own finances, accumulating significant wealth over time. 💰

One of the most famous was Phryne, who lived in the 4th century BC. Accused of impiety, a serious crime, she was defended by the orator Hypereides. In a dramatic courtroom move, he revealed her beauty to the judges, who were so moved they acquitted her.

Another well-known hetaira was Lais of Corinth. She was so sought after that her clients included famous philosophers and politicians, who paid handsomely for her time and conversation.

While these women achieved a level of freedom and influence, their position was an exception. The vast majority of Greek women were confined to the home, with their lives dedicated to family and domestic duties.

The story of the hetairai provides a fascinating look into the complex social structure of the ancient world, where a select few women could navigate the strict rules of a male-dominated society.
