Tell me something Goooooood you did, someone did for you, or anything special you want to bring to light✨

Last week I got caught up in the negativity online, the conversations that focus on all the bad things and I found myself a little bummed out.

If we don’t look for the good we won’t find it. As a friend reminded me today…. If you look for the bad you’ll find it and if you look for the good you’ll find it

Let’s spread some goodness today!✨

To the momma whose kids have a more active social life than you… I see you.

I see that calendar filled with to-do lists, a different highlighter color for each kid, the running household inventory list overflowing… and let’s not forget your 9–5 job.

You probably haven’t booked a hair appointment in 6 months… but I bet your daughter got her hair highlighted in that time frame.

You probably haven’t bought a new bra in a decade… but I bet those kids get new Nike shoes in every year.

And if I had to guess… I bet the dog gets more pampered than you.

I get it. This is me too.

Our kids are only with us for a short time, and many of us are quietly trying to heal our own inner wounds by giving our kids the kind of life we think will make us feel like a good enough mom.

But… BUT.

All that giving is slowly turning us into the exact version we tried avoiding all along🥴

Constantly on edge.
Ready to bite someone’s head off.
Drained mentally, physically, and emotionally.
Survival mode activated.

This isn’t presence… this is a perpetual state of depletion.

So let me tell you something…. You don’t have to give all of yourself in order to give your kids a good life.

They already have a good life. Their mom adores them.

What they need is a healthy mom.
A happy mom.
A mom who leads life with joy, not exhaustion.

So let me ask you…
When is the last time you did something just for yourself?

Not errands.
Not work.
Not for the kids.
Just you.

That’s why I want you to come to Bloom & Breathe.
You deserve time to create fun, connect with other women, and fill your cup back up.

No pressure. No performing.
Just women, fresh air, self-expression, and space to breathe again.

If this pulled you in… it might be your sign.

Your sign to add a colored highlighter for yourself.
To put your name back on the priority list.

And to remember that you’re allowed to live too.

So if you’re ready for that… come join us!

Note to self: remember to paint your nails.

There is just something about freshly painted nails that makes a girl feel a little more put together

It was on the to do list but then unexpectedly my Friday turned into getting Emilie into a doctor

Then errands and hoping to nurse her back to health before regionals so I told myself, “I’ll do it tomorrow.”

Tomorrow came…. Between worrying about Emilie being sick making sure everyone has their uniforms/ gear packed for the whole day because we wouldn’t be back home… the nails didn’t get painted.

I’ll pack it… surely I’ll have time somewhere in the day… I just wanted my nails painted 🥹

From home to Portage, Portage to Lafayette, Lafayette to Caston … the nail polish tucked into my purse had been long forgotten

Sometime between Caston and the hour drive home it dawned on me, “damn I never did paint my nails.”

While it’s not a big deal it is a sign of what many parents feel… between stress, schedules, and running we forget ourselves

And damn it it’s okay to spend five minutes painting your dang nails!

I love watching my family do what they love but to all the sports moms out there

Don’t forget to paint your fingernails - you also deserve the energy you give to everyone else 🤍

Tell us about your fingernail polish moment🫶

When you realize we’re all kind of the same and no one is judging you quite as harshly as yourself…. You feel more at ease in your own skin.

Self talk up. Self judgement down. Confidence sky rockets

We’re all in it together 🫶

Life will always reflect your self talk.

For a long time mine reflected a lot of negativity.

Missed opportunities.
Surface level relationships.
Victim mentality.
“Nobody likes me” energy.

Truth was…. I didn’t like myself. My glass was always half empty. Something was always wrong. And if I’m really honest? I craved the pity I got from it.

It wasn’t until my girls got a little older that I realized… the way I was thinking about my life was the problem. Not life itself.

Life is messy and hard and chaotic sometimes. That part doesn’t change.

But the way you think about it determines whether you see possibilities or pitfalls.

Want a brighter life? It starts with your self talk. 🫶

If this called you out, good. That’s your sign. Follow along, we’re doing the work together here.

Idk about you but I’ve left some rooms immediately feeling defeated, questioning where I fit in, if they’re talking about me after I leave, and was my awkwardness showing

So it’s also been important to me to create rooms that feel safe enough for women to be themselves because the last thing we need more of is feeling like we need to filter ourselves to fit in

For my lovely fellow introverts no one will ask you to stand up and introduce yourself. To my lovely extroverts make sure you grab a ticket for your introvert friend & be prepared to make new ones!

Let’s Bloom & Breathe together on April 25th.
A room where we all can just be sounds really really good right now! 🌸💐🤍
