The minor details... are always MAJOR

Nia Long had her first son at 30 and eleven years later, she had another one. She recently said something that resounded with me- it made my affirmations vision board.

‘The medical [profession] tries to tell every woman, ‘Have your babies before 40 because you shouldn’t have children after 40.’ Society tells us, ‘Get married before 30, because no man wants a woman after 30.’ You are not half the woman you’re gonna be until you turn 30. You’re not even half of that woman yet. So I think if we’d just take our time as women, and do what comes natural to us and for us, we would make fewer mistakes’
