I’ve always welcomed change. And life has brought me tons of it. I think it’s important to remember that change is good. It’s an opportunity to grow and move forward. And I find it’s much easier to focus on what’s next than to fight the inevitable. Whatever it is your dealing with, allow yourself to dive deep and really feel it out. Acknowledge what’s happening, own it, and be honest with yourself. Then explore your options, be positive, and take each day as it comes.

It’s NOT fine

This year has been eye opening for me. It started off bad, took a turn for the worse, and now I’m left with disheartening views and such a bitter feeling toward this country and the people living in it. It’s unfortunate but everything happens for a reason.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I usually speak my mind no matter what. Always. But lately I’ve been taking a step back a bit to observe what’s going on around me. Seeing with my own eyes how people are treating others and how they use words to sadly show their true colors. The lack of understanding and empathy out there is pretty sad. And I don’t want any part of it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I tell myself, this is NOT okay. This is NOT fine. So I tune it out because I can’t have that crap in my life. I know I cannot change the world. But I can create how I want my life to be by living MY truth. And in doing that I release positive energy into the world around me. That is how you birth change.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My happiness allows more love and kindness to bloom around me. And isn’t that what we need most? Personally, I am so over a lot of shit going on in the world. But all I can do is move forward because life doesn’t just stop. We can pause for a bit to rest… but we must get back up. Nothing changes if you stand still too long. And change is essential.

The Goodness in You

Stretching ourselves too thin because we want to do so much will only drain the life out of us. But lending a hand here and there will truly make a difference. By starting at home and in our communities we spread the message of joy and hope within the world around us. Helping others and being positive can only make our days brighter. And as more people do their part change happens in the most beautiful way. We all must remember we are connected. The goodness in you will bring out the greatness in others. And when it comes to love and kindness, a little goes a long way.

I am feeling a shift in my business and it’s pretty awesome. Lately, I’ve been very busy with projects, booking up weeks ahead, and I can’t say enough how grateful I am to do what I love. There has been many changes throughout the years as my business has grown and now there will be more.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the next few weeks I plan to update my website, feature more design packages, refresh the shop, and start a new stationery series. And since my son will be starting preschool on the 10th, my schedule will allow me more time to work as well.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I feel like a door is opening and my story is evolving. Looking forward to the changes coming my way and excited to share them all with you soon.
