monday morning encouragement: discover your dreams as you discover yourself
They say you’re supposed to have it all figured out by a certain early on set age. That you should know who you are, what you want to be, & how you want to live your life before you can even drive a car. Society puts this pressure on us saying that we…

monday morning encouragement: you’ll never know what you’re capable of unless you give it a good try
Do you ever feel like you’re surrounded by people who just seem to get everything? You think cool, I’m just so happy for you that yet another opportunity just happened to fall directly into your lap & you have no care in the world about how it got there. (Or is it only me). But…

monday morning encouragement: you are still loved today
I don’t know how your yesterday went. Whether it was great & fantastic, or it felt lonely & like you were forgotten, I want you to know one thing: you are still loved today. Flowers smells so nice & are really colorful & pretty, but they eventually whither. Chocolate is the best invention ever,…

monday morning encouragement: it’s okay to not be okay
Life sometimes leaves you at a loss for words. Not knowing what to say, not knowing what to do, not knowing what to feel. I’m there right now. If you’re where I’m currently at, I could encourage you to move on. I could say that you just need to build up the courage to…

valentine’s day gift guide
It’s the month of red hearts & candy messages & all things mushy gushy relating to consumeristic love. I’ve never been a big fan of this month & the holiday it holds because I was never huge on the idea of a love that seemed to just float around & come about on a…

monday morning encouragement: there’s no time to waste
If I’ve learned anything these last few months it’s that life moves on whether you’re ready for it to or not. It doesn’t give you a warning sign or send you a notice in the mail. It doesn’t wait for you to build courage or strength. It just races forward & the only option…

abbey kay lately: my current life
Lately, my brain & life have been so scattered. I’ve been out of picture posting routine on my Instagram, I’ve been staying up way too late, & I haven’t been as intentional with most of my friendships as I’d like to be. My mind is jummbled with all these ideas & I just haven’t had the…

monday morning encouragement: take the time to color, because there’s always a silver lining
Today I am spent. Nothing seems to be going right. I feel too over my head in too many things. The habits & ways of other people are really driving me crazy lately. I’m tired. I’m sad. I’m a girl & I’m over it. It would be easy for me to just give up on…

i’m only 23, so let’s do some stuff
The title says it all. I’m only 23, & I’m ready to do some stuff. I’m young & I have nothing but myself holding me back. So it’s time to do something cool, something BIG, & something epic, or at least something different. This year I really am going to work hard at creating the life that…

monday morning encouragement: grab your bag & go
Yesterday I texted my oldest brother & asked him, “How hard is it to get to Italy?”. Not even a full minute later he called me & we spent the next hour and a half talking about over seas travel, mission trips, & traveling to new cities. Out of my entire family, he’s the…
Welcome to Abbey Kay — a place to be filled with encouragement through real life struggles, a source to ethical fashion & trendy finds, & a guide to my life in Reno, NV.
A few things about me: I desperately want others to know they are seen, heard, & not alone. I believe you should love your body at every stage in life. I think finding a balance in everything you do is more important than striving for perfection. I will always drink black coffee & never not have black nails. I try my best to be open, honest, & real by showing up for others.
Always know that life is unpredictable, but it’s still worth experiencing every up & down it has to offer.
I’m so glad you’re here & can’t wait to connect!
Be encouraged. Be inspired. Be seen.
