Bold Body

I’m so excited to share with you the launch of my online store! The launch starts at noon, but I will also be adding new products throughout the weekend as they are being made.
I hope you take some time to check it out.
Every order made in October will receive a free goodie bag with candy and some fun toys.
If you would like your order to be packaged on tik tok, leave a message in the order notes and I would be happy to tag you in it. Leave your tik tok username and your request.
I hope you have a blessed day and I can’t wait to see you over at my store!

Ok... let me say this: “I only get to do my makeup a couple days a week, so let me have this moment.”

I work in a distribution center and don’t get to wear makeup, mostly because I would sweat it off. But, on the weekends, I can go full glam.

So, for those of you who frequent the Walmart in Decatur, I’m sorry.

But also, I still wear a mask, don’t worry, but my eye makeup is popping too, so even though my lipstick is going to be covered, it’ll still be cute!

So, for the past few months I’ve been trying to create a morning routine...

I’ve learned this about myself: I can’t do it! I say this only because I need change. I can’t do the same thing every morning without some change, however small it may be.

I’ve tried all of the elements that I want to be in my morning routine (prayer, devotional, exercise, etc), but I’ve realized that I can’t just make a routine and have that be my mornings for the rest of my life.

However, in this crazy time we’re in, all of those things are necessary for my health and clarity.

So, I just switch things up a bit. No one said I had to do those things in a certain order. Sometimes, well most of the time I pray on my way to work. But, sometimes I do my study time with the lord at work and sometimes it’s at home.

The point of this post is: there is no one way to do something. You have to do what works for you.

For me, one thing is certain: I’m an early bird!

Ok, so today I turn 21, which is a pretty big year. So, I thought I would share 21 life lessons with you guys. One for every year I’ve been alive.
1) Keep the ones you love close
2) laugh every day
3) Don’t ever let what other people think of you hold you back from your dreams
4) Chase your dreams until you catch them, then never let them go
5) Serve others first
6) Remember that bad/sad times are only for a season
7) you can get through anything by diving into the word of God and finding the answers you need
8) Value the friendships you have
9) Follow your heart, but use your instincts
10) Sing for the Lord, not for your own agenda
11) when starting a business, find a motive other than money
12) Get on other people’s level so you can connect with them
13) No one else can determine what I do with my life. The lord should be the only guiding truth.
14)other people’s opinions are great, but they aren’t gospel truth In your life
15) When someone says “they’re fine”, ask again
16) Sacrificing my own desires to help others is much more rewarding than doing what I want
17) washing your car when you live in the country is pointless
18) when applying for college classes, always check with other students about professors
19) paying extra on your car note will pay it off faster
20) trying to come up with 21 life lessons at seven o’clock in the morning is exhausting
21) live like there’s no tomorrow
These are all things I’ve learned from loved ones and life experiences. I hope they help you.

If I decided to do some reviews of brands/products in the future, what do you guys want to see?
I thought about fabfitfun, or maybe even E.L.F.
Let me know what products you guys want me to review on my blog and I’ll work on getting some.

Ok... I had way to much fun on this photo shoot! I now have stunning photos for my blog and this isn’t even all of them!
Real talk: I have always had a love hate relationship with photos of me. I’ve had to work hard at loving my body and myself. Instead of saying “man, that is NOT a cute angle for my body type” I’ve changed my outlook and now I can say “girl, you look good no matter what (not in a vain way). I had to learn to see myself the way I see every other woman, and that’s that everyone is beautiful and that includes me.
I see these pictures and all I can think is the progress I’ve made in changing the way I see myself.
Everyone has body image issues, the thing we have to learn is how to change how we handle them.
I hope you see yourself as beautifully and wonderfully made, because it’s the truth.

Fun Memorial Day planned! Today we’re celebrating a birthday and this week my blog launches, so a lot of fun things happening.

Absolutely the most fun I’ve had in months. These ladies are such a blessing and each of them are so talented. Shoutout to Brooke (on the left) for an amazing photo shoot. I can’t wait to share the photos.
❤️

Ok, I’ve taken this photo seventeen times and this is what we’re going with 🤣.
I feel like I used to dread posting on social media and constantly smiling. But recently, I’ve rekindled my passion for it and I can’t stop smiling.
I truly love getting to engage with so many new people and I can’t wait to meet more.
Sending you lots of love and joy today and I hope everyone doing well.

It’s a beautiful day in Texas today! I hope you’re all doing well. I’m so blessed to be able to share my story and journey with you guys.
I know there’s always a chance that someone is hurting or struggling today. If that’s you, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
I’m here to uplift you and help you. If you want prayer or encouragement today, I would be happy to take time with you.
Aside from that, have a blessed day. I’m supposed to post an encouraging quote today, but I’m doing this instead. I want you guys to see me and I don’t want to hide behind a screen. I will continue to post encouraging things, but I want to show up for you guys.
