Hi.
Welcome to my blog. I document my life lessons in hopes that it will encourage, equip and entertain.
Welcome to my blog. I document my life lessons in hopes that it will encourage, equip and entertain.
I have learned from past traveling experiences, that there are certain beauty products that I really do rely on. On previous short trips I have attempted to bring a minimal amount of items so that I didn’t have to check bags thinking - I’ll just buy something cheap to use during that trip. And I always hate how my skin and hair feels and looks when I cut corners.
There is this article that is going around right now that is essentially saying, moms don’t need more self care. That self-care will not fix burnout.
That statement couldn’t be further from the truth.
The problem is the perception and definition of self-care has been distorted into consumerism and escapism. Not actually taking care of yourself to achieve long term results.
I’ve always believed in the power of words. I am careful about the words that I say. Even though I consider myself a confident woman, I am sensitive to words that people voice. If I'm being honest, I am pretty sure everyone can relate to this fine line. I believe my years of studying God's Word, coupled with my personality traits, have contributed to my interest. But more recently, I realized how powerful the words “thank you” are in exchange for “I’m sorry”.
The question is always, which is better - using a foundation brush or a beauty blender? And which beauty blender brand should I use?
I find a lot of times, women do not understand the benefits behind each product. Today, I am breaking it all down for you!
Sometimes get messages from followers saying that posting about “getting ready” makes them feel bad because they are tired, they are moms and they can’t just be a “perfect mom” like I am. That makes me really sad.
I have 4 kids. I am tired, too. I get grumpy. I don’t sleep some nights. We are going through family struggles currently just like everyone else. The difference? I choose to not wallow in my exhaustion and frustrations, all the time. I am a natural pessimist and
Self care for new moms is something that is really hard to navigate through, especially currently when “Self Care” is so. dang. trendy.
So where do you start? What does “Self Care for a New Mom” really look like when you are getting zero sleep, you are trying to get to know a new human, you are still quite literally healing from a big change to your physical body and trying to deal with all the emotions and responsibility of it all?
I teach self care. My job is to help women navigate burnout, how to move away from survival mode and move into a space of thriving. But, what kind of teacher would I be if I didn’t listen to my own advice?
My biggest question prior to getting injected was “How does botox work?” and “What the heck is dysport?” I knew I wanted treatments done but didn’t know how any of them worked!
