Through My Lens: Keli, Made From Scratch. 🌟⭐️🍪

Keli has always struck me as someone super interesting and I always noticed her. I've seen her making fudge at Bekah Kate's (Kitchen, Kids and Home)Kate's, sitting outside coffee shops reading, and most recently- baking at the new PRESS Coffeehouse Coffee House

I asked Keli what makes her feel most accomplished, and this is what she said: "It's trying new things, out of my comfort zone and succeeding. Failure is okay as long as it does not include other people in that failure or make it their failure. The best lessons and growth come from failure that you can recover from."

Women like her are the reason that communities survive, families thrive, and the world is just a better place. ☺

Do you have a woman in your life you can't help but notice? Someone with an energy, a stillness, a power you can't quite name? Tag her below.

She deserves to be seen

Oh, Happy Birthday Keli!!! 🎂

I love Tina's Story! 🤩🥰

Tina had the courage to completely reinvent herself — from scientist in a lab to public speaker on positivity. She trusted that she already had everything she needed to navigate the change and push through the fear and anxiety that came with it.

Now look at her! Radiant, polished, confident.. And she has images to prove it! 😊

Girl code 101 😊😊

Surround yourself with it.
The unwritten rules of friendship — show up, lift up, and never let your girl walk around with bad nails. 💅

Congrats to all the 2026 Seniors! Always remember:
