Welcome to my blog!

I started this because it’s June 2020 and this is a very difficult time for the world. Between pouring my heart and soul into the #BlackLivesMatter movement and COVID-19/working from home, I found that exercise and sunshine alone weren’t cutting it for my self-care. So I started thinking about what I could do that would allow me to feel fulfilled and my heart automatically went to creativity. I am at my best and most calm when I am creating; whether that’s writing, editing video, painting, scrapbooking, whatever. And in a world full of judgement, there’s no judgement in creating from the heart and soul. So I decided to not only start this blog, but also a YouTube channel and Instagram account where you can follow me because if you know me at all, you know I love a lofty goal. And why not set a lofty goal when we’re talking about something that ignites your heart and soul?

Creative expression is so important to me and I feel so lucky to live in a world where we can easily share and connect with other people. Anytime I’m going through a difficult time, I rely heavily on creative endeavors to help me through; especially music and writing. And like I said, it’s 2020 and shit. is. difficult. A lot of my journey into creativity was not only influenced by my mom, but also by random creators that were brave enough to put themselves out there online for others (like myself) to find them. My hope here is that maybe in sharing what lights my heart and soul up, I can also inspire others to do the same.

What you can expect from me: Vlog style content – just me, living my life and sharing it with you guys.

What NOT to expect from me: Perfectly curated, beautifully edited content. I’m sharing my real life with you guys and I don’t have a desire to post perfectly curated content. I’m a recovering perfectionist and have zero desire to get wrapped up in that world ever again. These creative platforms will hold me accountable in ~just living my best life~ and not worrying about it being perfect. Remember the days when we had to take photos on a disposable camera and *hope for the best* when we got the film developed? And we ended up loving the imperfect pictures anyway because they were just that – imperfect and full of character? We didn’t feel pressure to be a perfect photographer. Perfectionism holds you back. And we are soooo not about that life anymore✌🏽
