A Word Wednesday: HISTORY

How often do you reflect on your past with shame, guilt, frustration or a plethora of other emotions? I know that I am guilty of this. Sometimes, I get discouraged and wish that I handled situations differently.

It’s okay to reflect on our past. We must realize that our past was a stepping stone to get to where we are today and where we are going. However, we must also be careful to not become stuck living in the past, living in those emotions of regret and guilt.
 
We must acknowledge our shortcomings, but also be gracious and forgiving to ourselves. Nobody’s perfect and we all make mistakes.
 
You can choose to live in your past and let it negatively impact your future OR you can reflect on the lessons learned and use them for motivation to do and be better. The choice is yours, what will you choose?

A Word Wednesday: Self-Care Check-In

 
 
We are interrupting your regularly scheduled motivational Wednesday post for a transparent video of my personal experience, as A Word Wednesday is aimed at providing everyone inspiration & motivation to be true to you. So I am being true to myself and sharing this, enjoy! 💋
 
Last month, I experienced a pretty scary allergic reaction that forced me to see a dermatologist to check on myself and what was going on! This appointment led to confirmation of a skin condition that I suspected I had.
 
 
The dermatologist shed light on my rosacea (which I encourage you to read about if you’d like) and recommended
utilizing sunscreen, something my skin was lacking. Her recommended sunscreen for me: First Aid Beauty Weightless Liquid Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30. (She recommended I use this EVERY DAY, even if I don’t go outside)
 
If you all are interested, I can share more about the before and after of this allergic reaction as well.

A Word Wednesday: Feel How You Feel

Nobody ever wants to talk about feelings, me included. However, sometimes we HAVE to. We have to acknowledge our feelings in order to heal & to grow. It isn’t always the most pleasant thing and people won’t always agree with your feelings, but your feelings are yours and they ARE valid.

So I challenge you all to feel how you feel so you can move on and move forward. Love you all, always. 💋
