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…

what 2018 looked like & how i hope the new year will be
A year is a long time. So much can happen in 12 months & it’s easy to forget. Blogging has always been a way that I have documented my life & where I’ve been since I was 19. I’ve written parts of my story on the internet for literally anyone to read, I’ve invited everyone…

why i never thought i’d ever do a boudoir photoshoot & images from my first one
I’ve been asked many times to do a boudoir photoshoot & my answer was always the same. No. No. No. I never saw the point in taking revealing pictures & said that the only time I would maybe do one was when I got married one day. I never felt that I couldn’t do one…

monday morning encouragement:
Self-doubt. It’s totally the elephant in the room today. At least for me it has been. It’s the reason that I’ve written & re-written what to say about six times already. It’s made me second guess every single idea I’ve thought was good. It made me hit delete, delete, delete on my all of my…

a letter to myself: hey you, know what you’re worth
This post isn’t for you today. It’s for me. I need a reminder. I need to tell myself a little something. So here I go… “Hey you, know what you’re worth.” Did you hear me? Know what you’re worth. Because I think you sell yourself short all the time. You get so wrapped up in…

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,…
