Blessed. I am incredibly blessed and thankful for a healthy, thriving, ball of fire 18 month old! You are literally my sunshine, I don’t know how I would get through life without you. I wish time would slow down, because unlike last time … I feel as though time is rushing past me. It’s like I have plans on what I’m going to do, but the day just passes on like nobody’s business. My Papa’s personality is out of this world and I am so excited to share his development with you guys thus far.

4 Ways to Start Your Day off with a Positive Mindset

These past two and half weeks have been an absolute roller coaster! I have had many ups and downs, mainly downs. If you follow me on Instagram then you know I made it public that I was just not in a good space whatsoever. And that exact date was February 8, 2020 and today is February 24, 2020 … I AM JUST NOW GETTING IT TOGETHER. Why in the heck did it take me 17 days to feel some type of good again?

January literally was amazing to me, so I don’t get how February comes and ruins it all. Maybe, I lost focus? I have just been exhausted to be 100% transparent with you guys. I mean, there are just so many roles that I am trying to excel in. Especially being a woman, I feel like we wear so many hats — wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, coworker, etc. — I’m telling you this list can go on, which is bonkers!!!!

Am I the only one who this happens to?

Well I refuse to end the month off like this, so I took the time during the beginning of last week to find the things that are limiting me, and trust me I’m still finding those things out. I’m in a much better head space and have done a couple of things to start my day off on a positive note. And I’m going to share those with you.

If you haven’t read my latest blog post on why life has been super hectic, you’ll definitely want to take a peep … Stuck in a hard space.

Stuck in a hard space.

Stuck in a hard space.

Where do I even start!? 

These past few weeks have been kind of a roller coaster for me and things are finally starting to slow down. Let me give you quick insight on the past month.  In addition to working full time, I was also working part time at Class Studios. Why pick up a part time?  It was my way of getting my foot in the door into the fitness industry, because at the end of the day … it is my passion and what I want to build my career in.
