I thrive in the self-help world, it’s my favorite type of book to read. As I am reading through Rachel Hollis’s new book Girl, Stop Apologizing it really lights a fire under me. Her words are extremely inspiring and she walks you through action steps of continuing to grow, evolve, and go after what you want. Why you need to go after what you want and why you shouldn’t allow anyone to get in the way of that. “How many…
I am extremely excited about this series, I have never gone into detail about why I started this blog or my story so I thought why not introduce it with my story. See if you would have asked me a couple of years ago if I would have left a 9-5, almost been done with my Bachelor’s degree, loved myself, and started a full service creative agency I would have laughed. I was such a mess, my anxiety was out…
Sometimes we all need a reminder that when stress, responsibilities, mundane tasks take over that we need to schedule time each week to fill out cups up. We all need a little reminder that slowing down is necessary, having rest days is necessary, it doesn’t matter how big your goal is you will reach it, especially if you slow down and take time to rest. I try to be on top of my self-care routine and even I have to…

Welcoming Karen on this #ThoughtsTuesday!! My name is Karen and I am a Conscious Lifestyle Blogger. Now, what is a conscious lifestyle? I can assure you it’s not a niche I’ve made up just to sound cool. Last year has been all about mindfulness – a psychological process that many of us have learnt to achieve through meditation or yoga in order to be and feel the present. If being mindful has allowed you to feel more in control of your thoughts,…
A couple of weeks ago I went to Ebb & Float a float spa for my birthday, and it definitely didn’t disappoint. I was more relaxed there in one hour than I have been in months. Not only is Kym extremely kind and warm, but starting your visit with a full body massage chair honestly was the best thing ever, and then spending time in a float spa made my entire day. If you have yet to visit a float…
