When your heart is ripped out without anesthesia, and you still say, “It was real with you. Thank you.”

I was standing behind the client. He was new. Tall. Calm. It seemed like just hair, just extensions, just a technique - but my hands were shaking, as if I was not gluing a capsule, but feeling his pulse...

Do you know what feeling I adore? When you walk through spring Kyiv in a thin raincoat, in heels, and there are puddles on the asphalt.

Sometimes I wake up too early... when the city is still asleep, and my window is already embraced by the morning light. At such moments, I go to the kitchen, make coffee, sit on the windowsill - and start fantasizing. Not just dreaming, but living every frame...

Men, let's talk frankly. No, we are not looking for a "daddy". We are not expecting a gold card, a paid vacation and an apartment in the center in exchange for a photo in a swimsuit and a humble "yes, honey" 🏖️. We have a job. Quite stressful. With its deadlines, meetings, clients, children, sports, lack of sleep and the desire not to break down 😵‍💫.

Sometimes it seems that many men pass the peak of their lives by 33 - and that's it. Then - a shadow of their former greatness, memories of what they were like ... and the expectation that a woman will become their sponsor, savior, nanny, psychotherapist, muse and part-time cook. 🍲🛏️🧹

We women really love smart men. Not just those who throw around words like “neural networks” 🤖, “investments” 💵, “decision-making algorithm”… but those who turn on their brains. Even when no one is looking 👀

We women see everything. We go into the profile - and in front of us is a forest, mountains, a river, a beach, a tree, a cloud, fog, a sunset... 🌄 Just not you. Or rather, you are somewhere out there, maybe behind the scenes. Or in the distance in the shadow of a pine tree, or just in the soul of this birch - it is unclear. 🌫️

We women don't want to "just date" anymore. We're not interested in a six-month chat without meaning. Daily "hi, how are you?" without actions and plans 😴 don't warm our souls. We're not the kind of people who wait five years for a man to "make up his mind" ⏳

Men, listen carefully. No, not our music🎵 Because if you don’t understand the rhythm to which she breathes, you won’t hear the whisper with which she melts. Every woman is her own playlist. 🎧 And not the one on the radio, but the one that plays in her headphones when she walks down the street and smiles to herself.

Dominance should not turn into control. It should not suffocate us. It should not deprive us of choice and freedom.

We live in a world where we often need to be strong, independent, and successful. But beneath all this glamour lies a simple desire: to be happy. And this desire is perfectly normal. What's more, it is sacred.

💬 “I don't need anything” isn't true?

"You don't have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step." - Martin Luther King

This question torments millions of people every day. It sounds in kitchens, on the news, in phone conversations with relatives who are at the front or under fire. It is difficult, painful, and - as scary as it is - there is no exact answer yet.

Let's be honest. When we see a couple on the street where the woman is noticeably taller than the man, most of us glance at them for at least a second. And some, alas, even allow themselves to comment: "It's kind of strange", "She's like a mother next to him", "He probably has complexes".

A few decades ago, scientists and futurologists warned: the Earth is rapidly approaching overpopulation. There were dire predictions - lack of food, water, housing and jobs, environmental disasters and mass migration. But is this problem so relevant today, in 2025?

Tiramisu is a classic Italian dessert that has gained popularity all over the world. Its name translates as "lift me up" or "cheer me up," reflecting its ability to lift your mood through a combination of coffee and cocoa.

Today, I want to talk to you about a feeling that every single one of us knows… but not everyone is willing to admit to. I’m talking about envy. Yes — that emotion that can either destroy us from the inside or become powerful fuel for growth and transformation. So why do we even have this feeling? Let’s figure it out together 💬👇

Have you ever felt your chest tighten with anxiety, your thoughts spinning in circles, and your body gearing up for danger… that isn’t really there? 🌀 It’s not your fault — that’s just your nervous system trying to “protect” you. But here’s the good news: you can manage anxiety, right here and right now! 🌿
