Independence & Interdependence

Share This Post

Let’s talk about two powerful words that shape how we live our lives: independence and interdependence. Sounds fancy, right? But it’s pretty simple.

Independence is that “I’ve got this” attitude. It’s about taking care of yourself, making your own decisions, and maybe even treating yourself to that deluxe pedi—just because you can! It’s standing tall, owning your space, and knowing you’ve got everything you need within yourself to thrive.

But here’s the thing: we’re also hardwired for connection. That’s where interdependence comes in. It’s the reminder that, yes, you can do it all, but you don’t have to do it alone. Interdependence is about leaning on your tribe—whether that’s friends, family, your significant other or the amazing women around you. It’s about building each other up and realizing that together, we’re even stronger.

So, here’s the balance Tigress: you can be fiercely independent and deeply connected. You can take care of yourself and still ask for help when you need it. After all, empowerment doesn’t mean doing everything alone—it means knowing when to lean on your tribe for support.

Because at the end of the day, you only have this life to live. Own it. Because if you don’t, someone else will.

“I am a strong woman and I trust that it’s okay to ask for help, and I am worthy of receiving it.”
