Loving the Woman in the Mirror

A February of Self-Discovery

Hey Queen,

February is often synonymous with romantic love, but here at Queenly Tings, we’re shifting the focus inward. This month, we’re diving deep into the transformative power of self-love, the kind of love that nurtures, heals, and empowers you to create a life you’re truly in love with.

Self-love is not just bubble baths and affirmations (though those are beautiful tools). It’s about doing the profound work of embracing every part of yourself, your shadows, your light, and everything in between.

Self-Love: A Revolutionary Act

True self-love requires honesty. It means looking at the parts of yourself you’ve hidden away, whether out of fear, shame, or doubt, and embracing them as integral to your journey. It’s the courageous act of saying, “I am worthy as I am,” and choosing to honor yourself daily, even when it’s uncomfortable.

This February, we’re challenging you to go deeper. What would it look like to love yourself fiercely? What would it mean to fully accept and embody all the brilliance and beauty you already possess? Through our workshops, we’ll explore these questions and more, helping you cultivate a self-love practice that is authentic, expansive, and deeply transformational.

Workshops to Empower Your Journey

We’re offering two powerful workshops this month to guide you through the layers of self-love and help you reconnect with your truest self.

Shadows & Light: The Shadowy Parts of Self-Love
In this workshop, we’ll explore the hidden, shadowy aspects of self-love, the parts of ourselves we often ignore or avoid. Together, we’ll gently peel back the layers, uncover the wisdom within these shadows, and learn how to integrate them into our lives as allies for healing and growth.
Golden Shadows: Reclaiming Your Light
Your light is waiting to be reclaimed. This workshop is a journey of empowerment, helping you unveil the golden shadows within, he brilliance, potential, and gifts you’ve been keeping hidden. We’ll guide you to recognize these aspects, release the blocks holding you back, and step fully into the woman you’re meant to be.

Why Self-Love Matters

Self-love is not selfish, it’s foundational. It affects the way you show up in the world, the relationships you cultivate, and the dreams you pursue. It’s the anchor that keeps you grounded in your truth, even when life feels chaotic.

When you love yourself deeply, you give yourself permission to live authentically, unapologetically, and joyfully. You step into your power, not as someone who’s “perfect,” but as someone who’s whole.

Join Us This February

This February, let’s make self-love the priority it deserves to be. Our workshops will provide a safe, sacred space for reflection, growth, and connection. Whether you’re new to self-love or deepening an ongoing practice, there’s something here for you.

Divine Feminine Rising

By Kema Ward • March 1, 2025

Hey Queen March is here, and with it comes a month of celebration, reflection, and empowerment as we honor International Women’s Month . At Agbara, we’re embracing the theme “Divine Feminine Rising” , a call to acknowledge the strength, wisdom, and creativity that reside within each of us. This isn’t just about acknowledging the feminine, it’s about celebrating it, amplifying it, and stepping fully into the power we hold as black women to lead, heal, and create meaningful change. The journey of the Divine Feminine is one of balance: soft yet strong, introspective yet action-driven, compassionate yet courageous. This month, we invite you to rise into your power and embrace all the ways your feminine energy can inspire transformation for you and for the world around you.

Why the Divine Feminine Matters The Divine Feminine isn’t just an abstract concept—it’s a way of being. It’s the part of us that honors intuition, nurtures creativity, and seeks balance in every aspect of life. In a world that often demands us to shrink or silence ourselves, celebrating the Divine Feminine is an act of revolution. It’s about reclaiming our power, rewriting the narrative, and reminding ourselves that we are more than enough—exactly as we are. This month, we celebrate YOU: the women who show up, rise up, and lift up. Together, let’s honor the beauty and power of the feminine, planting seeds of love, leadership, and renewal for generations to come.
