This past year, my greatest fear was my reality…

This past year, my greatest fear was my reality… I lost myself in motherhood… I imagine, I’m not the only one. At one point I decided it would be best for my family, for me to relinquish my identity as an individual in order to survive as a care taker and allow my home and children to take first priority. I’m a firm believer in taking care of yourself first. To model the importance of self care. When I’m happy, I’m a happy wife and happy mother. While I had to let go of the outer fancy and physical parts of self care I enjoy, I was able to embrace the inner feminine, beautifully magical, part of self care. Slowly I’m coming back into my physical self, my fun with makeup, my closet of clothes, my collection of shoes, while still soaking in the quiet moments in between to listen to what my She needs. My past 2 girls weekends were full of both! My She is so revitalized. I hope if you felt lost too, you’re finding ways to nourish yourself again. #fillyourcup #risesisterrise #selfcaredaily

The only thing more powerful than magic, is sister

The only thing more powerful than magic, is sisterhood. I’m so blessed to have these friendships of over 20 years. The love and support in this group is so strong. Each of these woman are so uniquely required to complete this circle. I admire these woman who are brave and emotional and inspiring. The pandemic kept us apart for 2 years when we usually see each other annually. Somehow, through not being able to be together physically our bond actually became closer. We are soulmates. Looking forward to forever with you ladies. #girlstrip2021 #risesisterrise

Today is a New Moon 🌚 and the beginning of a So

Today is a New Moon 🌚 and the beginning of a Solar Eclipse season🌞. I’ve recently started paying attention to how my energy shifts with the changes in the sky. Astrology is fascinating! 💫 Moon magic is incredibly empowering. It’s still like learning a foreign language to me, but I can feel myself aligning closer and closer to my highest good with every cycle. With the new moon comes new opportunities, new goals, new manifestations. If you know your Sun, Moon, and Rising sign, do tell! I’m an Aries, Sag moon, Libra rising.

Hats off to you Mamas!!! We made it through, what

Hats off to you Mamas!!! We made it through, what hopefully, is the hardest part of this pandemic. I’ve worn more hats than I can count this past 18 months. Anyone else? I’ve had to take a few off for longer than I expected... I’ve missed my mama tribe, my makeup, my style, my creative outlet, my ability to share things that make me happy, productive, and whole. Looking forward to catching up. I’ve got so much to share...

I’ve been in hibernation this past year, literally and figuratively. Anyone else?
The rebirth of Spring has never been more symbolic to me. Not just because the isolation brought by the pandemic but because my PPD really forced me to be alone with myself. Getting to know her past, present, and future on the most intimate level. It’s not always easy to see the rawest version of you. Getting up close and personal with demons, literally anything else is more fun. I’ve made a lot of mistakes, and I can say confidently, I don’t regret one. There have been worldly energy shifts, and personal astrological shifts that have supported me through it all in what is divine timing. I can feel my energy has higher frequency now. Woooooo hoooo! The anxiety and trauma that manifested itself into PPD has been acknowledged and is now appreciated as the incredible gift it was. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. But, I’m so ready to blossom into this new season of life. I’m so excited to see all my dreams falling into place... and I dream BIG guys. If you have any anxiety or struggle with depression of any kind, if your body is in pain or discomfort, you can do this! You will heal if you decide to. You can tear it all down and build the life you dream of. You are strong enough. You are worthy enough... and damn it, you are sooooo ready enough! Bloom where you are planted🌷

“I’m afraid of what I know,
I’m afraid of what I don’t know”.... tap, tap, tap...
I’ve been going inward this past year. What I know for sure... the scariest place to be is also the safest and most powerful. Have you heard of Emotional Freedom Technique, aka tapping or EFT? This has been one of my most empowering tools as I’ve come face to face with my inner child and learned her traumas and fears that are causing my anxiety and self sabotage. Tapping on the energetic meridians of the body while being deep in the fear and emotion allows you to 🎶 let it go... 🎵 it’s incredibly empowering, easy to do, free, and available, then and there, when the feelings come up. I learned the technique I use from @iamsaralongoria. She is opening enrollment for her free webinar and I highly suggest signing up! I’ll link to her FB in my stories. I’ll be sharing all the different types of healing methods I’ve tried this past year if this doesn’t feel aligned for you. But, when I say EFT is life changing- you guys... it’s fucking👏life 👏changing👏 Not only can heal yourself, you can manifest anything you desire! I don’t use these terms lightly... I love you all so much and NEED you to be able to live your best life ever. #manifestyourdreams

Two weeks of consistent naps and peaceful nights.

Two weeks of consistent naps and peaceful nights. This shift was so needed for us both. I can now enjoy that sweet little hand pulling my face to his without anxiety and with pure soul connection. I can breathe him in with the joy of watching him grow and the sadness of him growing so quickly. He is my safe place and I am his. My Bruce❣️

It’s time to get up close and personal. February

It’s time to get up close and personal. February 1st is the Energetic New Year so a symbolic day to share about my personal energetic shift. Whether you’re new to my community or a long time follower, I’m so glad you’re here! I’ve grown and changed a lot as a woman, mom, and creator recently and it’s new and raw and scary, while also exciting and revitalizing. I started my blog to inspire moms, and remind myself, that when you look better, you feel better, and you do better! Something I’ll always live by. As I’ve opened up my life to the world of social media these past 6 years we’ve been on a real life journey together that has now taken a pretty big turn.
.
I’ve shared everything from beauty and fashion, to all things motherhood, including my loss and struggles with PPA & prenatal depression. These past 2 years have been the most challenging in my life as I faced my trauma and demons, providing me with opportunity for growth. It’s been a difficult thing figuring out who I am now when I’ve been trying so hard to continue to be the girl who created this persona. I’m still not 100% sure what parts to fully shed and what ones to mold. I took a hiatus to spend intentional time with my girls while we’re home due to the pandemic. I’ve done a lot of soul searching and inner child healing. While I’ve been bonding with baby and tending to house projects I’ve come to realize it is time to make a shift in these tiny squares too. That feels very scary, but I’m here to create real conversations about elevating our collective. My love and passion for makeup and fashion are still a big part of me, but I will be sharing more vulnerable sides of my heart and soul’s journey. My search for healing lead me into an expansive community of wellness and wonders. Our physical wellness cannot flourish if it’s not supported by our energetic/spiritual self. So, I cannot authentically share my heart and soul without acknowledging the necessary role of the Universe/God. We are energetic/spiritual beings, experiencing a human existence on Earth. Let’s explore the

Dr. King said,
“Love is the most durable power in the world.”
I believe that to be true. And what is so incredible about this power is that it is completely democratized power. It is available to every single one of us no matter who we are, where we come from, or what we have been through.
That is all.

I now understand it’s not enough to be an ally by being accepting and loving to my friends of color. I need to be part of the Anti-Racism growth in our Country. Since I use this platform to support the works of Dr. Martin Luther King and the BLM movement I feel transparency is needed on what I am doing in my life as many post for show. I hope sharing this gives some of you that don’t know where to start some ideas.
✊🏿 I’ve joined a local school district parent/teacher study group taking the incredible @rachel.cargle workshop #dothework
✊🏾I donate regularly to the @aclu_nationwide and to our local food bank
✊🏾I have looked to add more people of color to the places I shop, the books I read, the movies I watch, and articles I share
✊🏽Our @jlfortcollins is regularly discussing ways we can attract and cultivate a more diverse group of volunteers, and organizations we work with in our community.
✊🏽I’m the PTA secretary for our school and will carry over what I learn from these organizations to our diversity committee.
✊🏽I am in multiple Facebook groups of moms learning together how to discuss the things going on in our community and how to take action.
✊🏻I continue to listen. I believe listening is our second greatest power in this growth. Listening with love, to our friends of color and their experiences and how they want our support. Listening to those who still support a system of oppression and white supremacy to better understand what keeps there.
I will be sharing links and more resources in my stories today.
