âGet a plant and name it after yourself. I tell that to everyone, especially if they have trouble with self-love. Take care of your plant every day. Water it, make it beautiful. If your plant is growing and nourishing, that means youâre growing and nourishing. If itâs dying, you have to ask: âWhatâs going on with me?â Every time you see a dead leaf, pluck it off. Say out loud: âGet rid of dead relationships in my life.â That means anyone who is lingering, stealing your energy, blocking your blessings. You need to put yourself first, second, and third. When youâre back to one hundred, then you can take care of the world. I learned that the hard way. Iâve been working since the age of twelve. Iâve been on my own since the age of sixteen. In my apartment there are four plants named after me. Thereâs Jiu Jitsu Deisy; sheâs delicate but dangerous; the vines look like theyâre choking each other out. Thereâs Yoga-Horoscope Deisy; she represents my spiritual life. Thereâs Rocio, which is the middle name of both me and my mother. I hated that name for a long time, until last year, when I made amends with my mom. Then the last Deisy is Little Deisy. Sheâs between six other plants, named after women in my life who have nourished me.â
