It’s no secret that the secret to success is con

It’s no secret that the secret to success is consistency. Whether you are building a business, dealing with relationships or working on health and wellness goals, consistency is the key. I like to use the term “Showing up” for yourself as a reminder to do just that. To be consistent and take some time just for yourself every day, so that you can move forward toward your goals and find some peace. ⁠
⁠
It’s not always easy to be consistent. Let’s keep it real life can get in the way and our focus can easily shift. Work, family, friends and numerous other things prevent us from finding time for ourselves. It can also become frustrating when we don’t quickly see the results we are hoping for and therefore you give up. Before you know it so much time has passed before you try again that you begin to feel like you are starting at square one and the idea of putting in the effort to take care of yourself can feel daunting. ⁠
⁠
If you’re in that space of “How do I get t back on my path?”⁠ (I'm feeling that way right now myself) take a few moments to reflect on what you were doing, why you were doing it and how you felt when you were showing up for yourself consistently in the past. ⁠
⁠
Showing up looks different for everyone so grab your journal and answer these questions for yourself.⁠
⁠
Journal Prompts: ⁠
⁠
1. What does showing up for yourself look like for you?⁠
2. What prevents you from showing up for yourself?⁠
3. What do you need to do to create space for yourself?⁠
4. How do you feel when you are showing up for yourself consistently?⁠
⁠
Whenever you are feeling like you fell off the truck and got run over on the road to success, this will help to make it easier to find your way back to making time for yourself a part of your daily routine.⁠
⁠
Mantra: “I am choosing to show up” Happiness is a choice. we must choose it every day and by showing up for ourselves we create the space to be happy.⁠

Sharing is caring and y'all know that shopping is

Sharing is caring and y'all know that shopping is my happy place. I love finding new and interesting things, but don't always have the time to write a full blog post on everything. So, this year I've decided to do "What I'm loving right now." A few things every couple of weeks or so that I'm obsessed with at the moment. From mascara to music, fashion to fitness and everything in between... here's what I'm loving right now!⁠
⁠
Left-Right...⁠
⁠
1. An exclusive for the Holiday 2020 Collection–Les Chaînes d’Or de Chanel @chanel.beauty illuminating blush. One swipe leaves the perfect bronzy rose-gold glow. ⁠Get it before it's gone!⁠
⁠
2. @maryjane_claverol Hand beaded turbans turns any hair day into a great one. Perfect for your next zoom meeting.⁠
⁠
3. Untamed by @glennondoyle I finally found some time to read this during the holidays and it was so funny and relatable. I had lots of laugh out loud moments.⁠
⁠
4. @baristawarrior French Press. If you're a coffee snob like me than making the perfect cup is important. This has a thermometer on top for the perfect temperature brew and stays hot for over an hour. ⁠
⁠
5. I'm old school and still like to use a bound planner instead or my computer. @papier has the most beautiful planners for 2021. The prints are just magical, with quality paper and you can customize to add your name or whatever you like on the front.⁠
⁠
6. The new Neo-Nude Foundation from @armanibeauty is the perfect invisible makeup. An ultra-lightweight, skincare-infused foundation that delivers a natural healthy-looking glow, all-day hydration, with light-buildable coverage. It's ultimate for that no makeup makeup look.⁠

Walking into the official first week of 2021 with

Walking into the official first week of 2021 with NO Resolutions here…just a clear vision and an understanding of the work needed to create it. I’m feeling ready! Ready to do the work. Ready to leave last year behind and the emotional and physical weight that came with it. I’m choosing to show up for myself first! Tapping back into the mindfulness and movement routines that make me feel energized and full...digging deeper into my yoga practice. I’m envisioning even bigger things this year as I light up the wellness space continuing to inspire and promote body positivity and inclusion. I’m seeing travel (we’re gonna take that safari to Africa), new business ventures, new connections, new opportunities, (throwing out into the universe that talk show I’ve always wanted cause why not?) and money…an abundant life indeed! YEEESSS bringing it all to me this year…Are you ready?⁠

Happy Monday!⁠

As we close out 2020 and look brightly toward 2021

As we close out 2020 and look brightly toward 2021 I want to take a moment and say THANK YOU to everyone who has been supporting me and cheering me on during this journey.⁠
⁠
This year has been especially hard for all of us, but because of your follows, likes, engagement, shares, showing up for yoga classes and events whether socially distanced in person or via zoom, and all the love you have shown, it has also been a year of huge growth for me as a woman of color and size in the wellness space. ⁠
⁠
To all of my designer friends and clients who have continued to work with me as the hospitality industry severely slowed down, I greatly appreciate your support as well and am thankful to be a part of this amazing design community filled with such wonderful people.⁠
⁠
Whether you are ringing in the New Year with friends in person, via zoom, or cozy at home alone, I hope you truly celebrate. Celebrate all that you have achieved this year, all that you have learned, all that you have made it through. Celebrate YOU and all the friends, family and community that have helped to get you through. Celebrate life, love, and all the opportunities that lie ahead for the next year. ⁠
⁠
I will be celebrating all of you! I'm looking forward to continuing to grow with you next year and wishing each and every one of you an amazing 2021. ⁠
Xoxo⁠

Happy Monday! ⁠ ⁠ As we move into the last few

Happy Monday! ⁠
⁠
As we move into the last few days of 2020 we can wrap this one up as a particularly challenging year to say the least. While I feel hopeful that better days are ahead, there is no magic switch to flip at the stroke of midnight that will change everything that is happening in the world. But, how about letting joy guide you into the 2021?⁠
⁠
We can't always predict what the next season will bring or what it will look or feel like. But, we can count on the fact that nothing ever stays the same...it is ever evolving...meaning our circumstances are constantly changing.⁠
⁠
If you want to make the most of each season despite the circumstances allow joy to be your compass and no matter what each season will be filled with happiness.⁠
⁠
Have an amazing week!⁠

It's Monday and there's just 10 days left til we close the book on 2020. While this year has been super challenging it has forced me to grow and stretch in ways I never knew I needed too. I typically live and die by a good plan, so when this year knocked my plan on its ass it taught me to be more flexible, resilient, compassionate, grateful, still and so much more patient. ⁠
⁠
I'm going to use this quiet holiday time to continue to reflect on what I need to take away from these last 10 months, but also begin to make a new plan for the next 12. It may or may not work out as I imagine but I'm heading into this holiday week feeling positive, excited and hopeful for new opportunities and brighter days ahead. ⁠
⁠
Wishing you a wonderful week and a beautiful holiday!⁠
