Self 🧡 Series: What Do YOU Do for YOU?

As I was marketing a new line of make-up on Instagram, I came up with a funny yet very real script.. Make-Up: Girlfriend, where are you going? Me: No where.. this is for ME!

I choose to not be you… (learned from the Calm Meditation app) This is my new mantra when anxiety hits, and I must say, it has been very helpful.  Just because certain unpleasant  emotions grab a hold of you, it does not mean you have to “be” that emotion.  We can see it, feel it and still not “liveContinue reading “Self ❤️ Series: I see you, I feel you…”

Self ❤️ Series: Forgiveness
