Happy Galentine's Day!

Happy Galentine's Day aka the day before Valentine's Day where ladies celebrate ladies! To celebrate, Bethany's Bling and I threw a mini Galentine's Day party. We made Galentine's themed treats, watched Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and had fun in the Galentine's Day photobooth. My mouth is watering as I type this for all of the dessert we had!

You know that saying “stop and smell the roses?” Lately I’ve been trying to be more mindful and in the moment- to take time from my busy schedule and simply enjoy life. There’s always going to be one more thing on the to-do list: one more errand to run, person to call and task to complete. However, I find when we take a step back, to hit pause on the “busy”, we see and experience life in a new and beautiful way. So, take this as your reminder and take a moment out of your busy day. Look at the beauty around you- call a friend- do something enjoyable that’s not on your to- do list. You won’t regret it! Thanks for holding me to this, @mariyaleona ✨♥️ 📸 + styling: Jess from @enzeeboutique
My goal lately has been to educate myself more on gender equality. I want to share what I have learned and start an important conversation that I invite you to participate in. ⠀ ⠀ @corawomen followed me a few months ago and I couldn't stop thinking about their words and purpose. ⠀ ⠀ Nearly 300 million girls and women globally do not have access to proper menstrual products- meaning they do not have a way of managing their flow/ bleeding. This leads to many girls falling behind in school from lack of attendance and even dropping out because they can not catch up. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ I never knew "period poverty" was an issue and that's why I'm teaming up with Cora to spread the word and make a difference. The next few weeks I will be sharing more information about this global issue and prevention measures. ⠀ ⠀ I encourage you to visit the website Cora.life or message me to learn more!
