Done > Perfect

Hey Besties! On today's podcast Katie and I discussed the done is better than perfect mindset. It was focused towards health and working out but the mindset goes for anything!!! I know I struggle with wanting what ever I do to be perfect. Or as perfect as I can get it. However when I am struggling with dark seasons of life I know that "perfect" is far out of my grasp so that eventually turns into not doing anything at all. Which then feeds the depression because I feel useless. It's such a vicious cycle! When I do tasks that I really don't enjoy doing, like working out or putting away my clothes, as soon as I'm done I truly...

Back to school, feelings, and things to come!

Wow besties! We have made it to the time of year that has some of us mom's jumping for joy and some of us crying our eyes out. What time of year am I talking about? School time! This year for me is a bag of mixed emotions. My son is now riding the bus. I know right? Why? My husband and I decided to pick our battles with this one and riding the bus was not the battle we felt like fighting. Let's collectively pray that it is a positive experience and not one that will cause a lasting negative memory! It was hard to have him walk outside the house today and have him handle the first day...

Let There Be Light

Hey besties! When Katie asked if I wanted to write the blog post for this week of course I said yes. Then the next question is about what?? So I was thinking... anyone here going through it right now? Like going through that darkness and heaviness that just never seems to lighten? I'm not going to lie I have been struggling. I have this sadness and anger that just doesn't seem to want to let up. I know myself and I do know this will eventually pass and while I'm in the darkness it seems never ending. Life can be so HARD. I am reminded that we can do hard things. We grow when we are challenged. Without the rain there...

Welcome back to the blog!! 🦩👯‍♀️🧡🪩

Do people even write blogs anymore?!?! 🤣 We've decided we want to get back to it!! Last time we posted here, we had just been to the Eras tour in Houston, and we are still as obsessed as we've ever been with Taylor!!! Being a Swiftie right now, I think, is so much more than just thinking Taylor Swift is amazing. It's a movement of humans coming together in a spirit of love, kindness, confidence, overcoming, and healing that is just SO incredible!! I'm seeing this same vibe as I'm literally glued to the tv watching the Olympics!! Cheering for Team USA, hearing the stories of these athletes, and watching how they win AND lose. I think I'm most overwhelmed...

Taylor Swift 🫶🏻 The Eras Tour Recap

If you live anywhere near Houston, you know this past weekend was all about the Swifties. AND IT WAS EPIC! Elise was already a TS fan, and it wasn't that I wasn't one, but when Lover came out, it spoke to us both so much at that time in our lives, and we pretty much became forever fans at that point!! Elise and I had committed to each other that we would be at her next concert no matter the price or time, and Taylor Swift delivered an incredible show and a whole experience we will never forget.  The show was spectacular. Theatrical, incredible details, and so much talent. BUT THE VIBE!!! That's what I'm here to talk about. Except...
