Tis the season to inspire.
The holidays are here! Halloween is over, Thanksgiving will be here before we know it, and we all know how I feel about Christmas! 🙈 ( It's just the most important holiday ever!) Ok... I might be little biased because my birthday is the day after. 🤷🏼♀️ Gifting is my passion as you know, and before starting my business I was all about holiday gift shopping starting in about June. No lie, I'm a nut. A well prepared nut. 🤣 You too can be well prepared this holiday season wi

Authenticity
What does being authentic really mean? Does it mean doing what everyone else does and calling it unique? No. Does it mean stealing another's ideas and claiming them as your own? No. Being authentic means being real and genuine. It means being you. There is only one of you. One of you with your ideas. One of you with your eyes, and your smile, and your thoughts, and your emotions. That is the you that you should share with the world. Who really wants to see a bunch of copies?

Letting go.
Letting go is never easy. Letting go of expectations. Letting go of hopes and dreams. Letting go of love. These things that we fear are what keep us up at night, and haunt our thoughts during the day. We fear losing. We fear missing out. We fear not being good enough or enough at all. Why do we fear these things? Is it because we want others to believe in things that we don't even believe in? Is it for the show? Is it for the false image we strive to create so that nobody see

Feeling lost.
Some days you just feel lost. You are confused. You have no direction. You wake up with no intentions of getting out of bed, and yet you eventually manage to peel back the covers, roll over, and feel the cold floor beneath your weary feet. These are the days that lack motivation, inspiration and personal drive. It is nothing to be ashamed of, but you feel as though you have let everyone down. You feel like you have let yourself down. Things are not going well. Things are not

The man, the myth, the legend. Dad.
Dad. Father. Best Friend. Whatever you call him, whenever you call him, he's there. Father's Day is his day, but we should celebrate the amazing things that dads do everyday too! We already know that mom is superwoman, but dad should get a lot of credit also! Dad is a shoulder to cry on (both then as a baby, and now as an adult - wait, what's an adult? 😂) a helping hand, the one who most likely taught you how to ride a bike, change a flat tire, and that boys are the enemy un

The future.
Donut stop believing. Does anybody else sit and think about the future? What will I be doing in 5 years? In 10 years? What will I look like? Who will I love? Who will love me? Where will I be? I have been asking myself these questions a lot lately, and sometimes I get a little overwhelmed thinking about the possible outcomes. If you didn't already know, I am 25 years old, single, and do not have any children. My future is a book of open pages ready to be filled with new adven

Compassion, love, selflessness.
Compassion, love, selflessness. What do these words mean to you? Do you believe in them? Do you feel them? There have been times in my life where I have felt these toward other people, but the other day I felt them in a whole new way. Tuesday April 18th, 2017 Tuesday April 18th, 2017 started out as any other day. I woke up a bit tired, and I had some things on my mind, but I hopped out of bed and got the day started. Had some breakfast, took a shower, worked out, then got sta

The road less traveled.
Starting your own business is...hard? "Just go for it", they say. Start your own business! Be your own boss! It sounds exhilarating, amazing, ideal, and...entirely nuts and extremely intimidating! ALL AT ONE TIME. Yes that deserved capital letters and the equivalent of yelling on the internet. There is so much that you just don't know when you take that leap of faith and say ok, "I'm going to do this!" First off, you want to make sure all of the legal aspects are taken care o
