HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRLFRIEND! 🥳
Cheers to another year of belly laughs, dance parties, heart to hearts and changing lives 🖤 I’m so grateful this side gig connected me to you and that I get to call you my friend.

You know it’s true what they say. Photographers hate having their photo taken 📸
I remember when I used to hate having my picture taken because I knew I wouldn’t like how it looks and it would be up on social media — they always are now!
We’ve quickly arrived at a place in time where a huge amount of our time is spent on social media. & while there are those fads of people signing out and swearing off it, it’s a part of our world. It’s where we meet new friends and connect with old ones, where run our businesses, play games with one another, buy things, and apply for jobs.
And anytime someone used to take my photo I’d look back at it and instantly tear myself apart. If it were a group photo I’d think “oh my gosh I’m the ugliest one”. I was literally horrified when people would tag me in photos I wasn’t picture perfect in.
I’m sure I’d still be trapped in that dark place when it came to social media without making some changes.
Rule #1: unfollow people who glorify negativity and throw it around like glitter. It’s not cute, it’s fiercely damaging. Do some spring cleaning on who you follow if you find yourself scrolling past more negativity and hatred than you do empowerment and love.
Rule #2: Start to prioritize health, happiness and self-love habits daily in the place it really matters: in the mind. Do mental check-ins to listen to the way you talk about yourself and others. Recognize when it’s harmful, replace it with positive affirmations.
Rule #3: Remember, nobody actually notices if your hair looks “bad” or your arm looks awkward. If you’ve taken care of rule #1, the only people looking at that picture sees you for Y O U and loves you unconditionally.
