Dear Dajiah, how do you stay grounded when business or motherhood feels overwhelming?

I don’t always feel grounded — I just come back faster now. Some days I’m centered, other days I’m chaos in lip gloss. But I’ve learned that rest is part of the work.

I start my mornings with quiet time, prayer, and water before my phone. When I feel scattered, I pause and remember — I built this life from purpose, not perfection. Some days I give 100%, other days 40%, but it’s still me showing up. Grace counts as effort.
