what to do when comparison creeps in
Recently someone reached out to me & asked for advice on what to do when you can’t stop comparing yourself to someone else in an unhealthy way. I felt very humbled that this person trusted me enough to confide in me & that she thought I would know how to beat it. Truth is, I […]

why i never thought i’d ever do a boudoir photoshoot & images from my first one

monday morning encouragement: more body love
I don’t ever remember a time when my pant size was less than double digits.

Ya see, yesterday I participated in the #CoastToCoastChallenge on IG where the ladies over at Coast To Coast Central teamed up with the peeps over at The Project Heal […]
