What’s a book, movie, or TV show that you wish you could experience again for the first time?
A Tv show I wish I could experience again for the first time is Broad City. The amount of times I have watched that show is unhealthy LOL I’d love to be able to see it again for the first time.
What is something you wish you could tell your 20-year-old self?
You are doing way better than you think, and you’re also NOT the problem you think you are. I know you’re going through a horrific spiral of anxiety now that you’ve moved out of the chaos of your parents’ apartment, and I know the overwhelming feeling makes it feel like you have always been “dramatic” or “abnormal,” but this is NOT TRUE!
Your nervous system has grown up in a chaotic environment, and although now you’re in a peaceful place, your nervous system is wired in a way that keeps you on edge, ready for anything at any moment. Your sensitivities may feel like a burden, but just know that they are actually your superpowers. Once you learn how to regulate (which you will, now that you’re in an environment where you can), you’ll start to understand why you are the way you are, and you’ll be able to give yourself more grace.
At 20 years old, you feel so old, yet so young. You’re out on your own, paying your rent/bills, working a job, taking community college classes, yet you feel so new to this independent world. The anxieties and worries linger around every decision, but just know that decisions are portals, and no matter which one you make, it’s the right one for you.
Life is a series of lessons, and these lessons turn into blessings as you learn discernment and emotional regulation. We make mistakes, we learn, and we do better next time. Focus on being present and healing, so you can continue to thrive in this life- I know you will. 🤍
Signs are all around if you’re willing to see them✨
My husband is out shooting Air-soft with his friends, so I am taking a much needed “me day” at home! This morning I did some declutterring and then I made myself some breakfast. Later on I decided to go out and grab myself an iced coffee and now I’m home reading my new book that I won from @thecosmicrx on Instagram!
The new moon technically peaks tomorrow, but I’m feeling that calm reset kicking in now, and I am excited to see what these next couple of months look like! The more I lean into being present and taking life day by day, the easier it is to feel fulfilled and happy. I am so grateful for today and this life.
List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?
The Four Agreements By: Miguel Ruiz- it’s ancient wisdom that reminds you of simple, yet powerful ways to live happily.
Identical By: Ellen Hopkins- I remember crying and being completely shook along side the character during a wild realization.
The Universe Has Your Back By: Gabby Bernstein- a spiritual guide for being present and playful with the universe around us.
It’s a beautiful, sunny day after a couple days of storms, and the energy feels like a lovely reset. Yesterday there was a moment where I was truly reminded of how deep and peaceful the love my husband and I have is, and I will forever cherish that moment. To be seen and appreciated, especially by your favorite person is something that just cannot be beat.
I’ve noticed I’ve been slipping back into the negativity of the internet, and am deciding to pull back on that fear and turn it into faith! My body and soul cannot be poisoned by the evil of this world, and I know my angels and guides are protecting me and my loved ones at all times.
Today is also the anniversary of my husband’s cousin’s passing, and I remember that day so clearly. I saw a black butterfly in the window at work, and forever will know that she was coming to say that she’s still here, even if she’s gone. I feel her presence today, and I am so grateful to have so much love in this realm, and the others.
It’s been a week of June, and summer vibes have officially arrived. I have been feeling so happy lately; seeing my favorite people, doing my favorite things- June feels like a refreshing, whimsical month already! I’m feeling grateful for all of the wonderful people in my life, and how many joyous moments are awaiting me this month. Here are some photos from the first week of June!
Who would you like to talk to soon?
I’d like to talk to my friend in Denver soon! I love our phone calls and I’d love to plan a trip to visit her some point within the next year! We recently decided we’re also going to be pen pals so I sent her a cute letter a couple weeks ago! We’re doing our part in keeping the 90s alive!
Happy June!!! It’s the first of the month, we just had a Blue Moon yesterday, and things just feel like they’re shifting into a positive timeline!
I had such a great May, and this has me super excited for this month!! It’s amazing how different my mood is when we have constant warm weather and sunshine! I’ve been feeling more motivated to hang out with friends and just get outside!
My husband and I just signed up for a new gym as well which has both indoor and outdoor pools which is super exciting! We’re hoping to go this evening when it’s a little quieter and we can get comfortable with the layout!
This summer is all about fun, friendships and nature for me! I am excited to focus on all the good and just enjoy the summer!
Here’s to wishing everyone a happy, abundant summer!!
It’s been a while since I posted, so why not just post now? Sometimes I get down on myself when I skip out on my blog, and I had a few moments of that, but I’ve also been learning to give myself grace.
It’s finally summer!!! Well, at least the weather feels like it! This weekend I saw so many friends, got to be outside in the sun, and just overall had a great time being present with everyone.
I also had a random reel of mine go viral on IG this week, which I have never had happen before! It was a video I took of a cute little bee mistaking my friend’s tattoo for an actual flower! I am glad it was a simple, happy video that got over 1.5M views! I’ll post it here for you all to see!
