3 Things to Know About Changing Your Career and Finding Your Passion in Life I feel like we’ve all been in the same shoes at some point or another where we dread going to work, or we feel that our passion that we once had is slowly dwindling away.

There’s usually this transition phase that’s messy and uncertain, and who likes being ..read more

How to Fill Your Cup When It’s Empty Filling your cup is creating a moment of pause in your life. It’s creating time and space for just you outside of everyone else and everything else in your life.

I didn’t even realize I was running on an empty cup for over a decade in my own life and it lead me to a point of completely losing myself. I really learned to focus in and figure our how to fill your cup when it’s empty because I realized the impor ..read more

How to Plan Your Social Media Content Calendar Creating content daily is extremely overwhelming which is why I always like to create in bulk. Batch creating content is going to save you so much time and make you feel much more organized.

I’m a Failure. I’m a failure. This is a narrative that I’ve had replaying through my mind for the majority of this year. I have been in survival mode for the bulk of this year, and my world felt like it was spinning around me and I just couldn’t grasp it. I felt like I had totally fallen out of my groove and that I would never get my sh*t back together. I guess you could say that I hit my rock bottom this year. The thing about hitting rock bottom is that you can only go up from there. Glennon Doyle’s ‘you can do hard things’ has been something that I’ve been replaying in my mind as a mantra fo ..read more

Hair Loss from Hard Water I recently realized the reason for the change in my hair over the past couple of years – water.

How It All Started Let me start off by sharing how I figured this out in the first place. I started to notice m ..read more

Shame: One of the Most Self-Destructive Things You Can Feel I’ve been thinking about shame a lot lately because I think it’s an interesting topic. So in the dictionary shame is described as a painful emotion caused by having done something wrong or improper. You’ve probably heard of Brene Brown, she does a lot of work around shame and explains it all so well. Shame vs Guilt She goes on to define the difference between shame and guilt because I think a lot of the time the two can get mixed up. She describes guilt as actually being adaptive or even helpful because it’s something we feel after we ..read more

How to Be More Confident I came to the realization recently that confidence comes from comfort. Seems like a duhhhh kind of thing to come to realize but it all makes so much sense. It’s funny because when I talked about fashion and styling I always preached comfort above all, and my reasoning was because comfort breeds confidence. I would literally say that all the time, but my mind only had that fixated on fashion / style. The truth is that the same rule goes for EVERYTHING in life. Confidence = Comfort When you’re comfortable you’re going to be confident. Plain and simple. Think of times whe ..read more
