🔥 The Power Series: Why I’m Breaking Down The 48 Laws of Power

This is a personal growth series about reclaiming my power, one law at a time.

🖤 Introduction

Lately I’ve been craving something deeper—something that holds me accountable and keeps me grounded in the woman I’m becoming. I want to read more. Reflect more. Move more intentionally. And maybe, just maybe, regain some of the power I’ve given away too freely in the past.

That’s how this blog series came to life.

🔥 What This Series Is

Over the next 12 weeks, I’ll be reading and breaking down The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene—not just from a place of intellect, but from experience, emotion, and womanhood.

From the lens of someone who’s had to rebuild.
Someone learning how to balance softness with strength.
Someone who’s no longer interested in playing small.

This isn’t about manipulation or dominance.
It’s about understanding the dynamics around me so I can move wiser, softer, and smarter.

This is about protecting my peace, not just projecting power.

📚 What to Expect

Each Wednesday, I’ll post a new reflection based on one law from the book. I’ll share:

What the law means to me
Where I’ve seen it show up (in dating, work, motherhood, friendships)
Whether I agree with it or challenge it
What we can take from it in today’s world

This is my personal challenge to finish the book and stay committed to my reading goals.
But it’s also a space for you—especially if you’ve ever felt like you were too much or not enough in the wrong spaces.

Let’s explore what power really looks like when you define it on your own terms.
