You Are a Beautiful Work in Progress
We are all a work in progress. No one has it figured out, everyone is constantly learning and growing and changing. It’s really easy to beat ourselves up for being a work in progress and for not having it all together. But how beautiful is it to realize that you don’t have to be in […]
Find the Best Version of You
One of my favorite things about my journey of self-discovery and self-care is the process of finding the best version of myself. I’ve been writing this blog for about a year now, and as I continue writing, I continue learning more and more about who I am and what I need. I started writing this […]
You Are More Than Your To-Do List
Take a break. You’re worth it. The truest words to be spoken. If you’ve been following along with my recent posts, then you know I’ve been struggling a lot lately. I’ve been putting pressure on myself like no other which has led me to be self-critical and overwork myself. In turn, I’ve felt disconnected, helpless […]

She talks about how sharing her story through her vlog has helped her learn so much about herself. She also reminds us that each of our stories are unique and beautiful, even if they […]
You Are Worthy of Love from Others and Yourself
I’ve been doing a lot of yoga and meditation lately to help me through. On the weekends, it is nice to have some extra time to do longer or multiple meditations. I did one this weekend that was focused on self-love, something I haven’t been doing so well lately. The instructor said to think of […]
What's Behind Your Smile? Let it Flow
What is behind your smile? Behind my smile is where I hid for years. Behind the smile that people saw, there was pain and self-hate. Throughout the years, I have grown to hide less behind my smile, but I still find my moments where it feels more comfortable, safer and easier, to show up and […]
Don't Compare Yourself. Where You Are is Beautiful
Our lives can be full of comparison. We might feel like we are always falling short. We see someone else living the “perfect” life or experiencing the “perfect” relationship, and we feel like what we have isn’t good enough. We look at where we once were and get frustrated with ourselves that we might not […]
Positive Mindset is Key
I’m not naturally an optimist. For a long time, I worried about everything from getting an A on a homework assignment to how I would pay rent. I lived in a constant state of stress, worrying that if I didn’t do everything just right, it would all just fall apart. That kind of lifestyle, constantly […]
You Deserve to See the Light Within You
You deserve to see the light within you that others see about you. How often do we dismiss the love and compliments that others give to us because we aren’t able to see it for ourselves? When we do that, we only create this cycle of feelings of not being good enough. We so often […]
It's Okay if Your Self-Care Looks Different Right Now
It’s okay if your self-care routine looks different right now, or is requiring more effort. A friend and I talked about this recently and I realized how true this is. Is that walk you used to take that made everything a lot better, just not cutting it anymore? Does taking that walk feel more like […]
