Self Love Club

-

 Hey gems,

So I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about myself, my blog and the way I've been feeling lately. I really had a few moments of realization lately where I catch myself being very harsh with myself. I catch the horrible comments I tell myself and realize I want to make a change. Its easy to talk about, fake, smile, but its truly difficult to live fully loving ourselves. I realized that the things I was thinking of myself, I would never ever say to another human being, so why would I say that to myself?

I wanted to open this conversation by starting off with the reality around us. I am constantly told "oh shush you're skinny" as if I am not allowed to be unhappy with my body simply because it fits into the "skinny" category. This really infuriates me and I fully take responsibility for doing to others as well. I think we all have a right to be insecure and have moments of uncertainty. 

So ladies, men and all animal creatures let's start to treat ourselves like we treat others.

I am going to be starting a Self Love Club, on Saturdays sharing stories of self love, insecurity and difficulties so that we can all come together in learning how to truly appreciate ourselves for everything we are other than a body. We are talented, smart, persevering, inspiring, and so much more. So I have to hear your stories, your struggles and your major "AHA" life moments. 

Let's share in the love, in the struggle and in the reality of the imperfect perfection that we truly are. 

Love,

T

I think the Self Love Club is a brilliant idea!

I can identify with you on the point on not being allowed to be unhappy with your own body because I feel that way sometimes too. I've made comments about myself and people don't seem to understand and tell me to be quiet because I'm regarded as skinny.

I guess we all have things we don't like about our bodies regardless of what size we are and we should be free to express that without judgement.

New Year Update!

-
 Hi Gems,  Wow it has been a while. The last time I wrote and published on here was in October which honestly feels like a lifetime. As the holidays came and went, we rang in the new year and I find myself thinking a lot about not only lessons learned this year but the direction I want to aim for when going into 2024.  As you may know if you follow my other platforms, I am getting married this year which feels surreal! It's been so far away for so long and here we are counting down less then a year! I also am so proud of Tia things on Instagram , TikTok and Youtube because I really have pushed myself to create more all while having fun! With all of this in mind, here are some of my goals going into 2024: 1. Have a life outside of wedding planning  Wedding planning has genuinely been so fun and even in the stress-inducing times, I would not change anything for the world. I am so proud of how much we have done, saved, planned, etc. as we put together our perfect day....

Furniture shopping

 Hey gems,  I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine as summer is approaching! We have been busy trying to pick out all the furniture for the new place. It has been quite a wild journey to get here so I thought I would take some time to review everything that has been going on! Firstly, my favourite store by far is Structube , it is my favourite place and has such a great variety of items but way less overwhelming then a big store like Ikea.  The first thing we picked is our dining table and chairs. The chairs are warm brown leather and the table has a fake live edge that I LOVE! This was the easiest item to choose by far! This is all in a warm theme and tones that will go well with the dark floors and cabinets. We also have been very budget conscious in the whole process and the table was a great price for a larger size so this was a no-brainer.  The next main items I picked out are decor because I had some very specific ideas like a gallery wall and big mirrors! We...

She's a wife!

Hi gems, after soooo much time away from the blog I am back with a life update! I have now been married for a month and had the most incredible honeymoon! We are just getting back home and resetting into a routine. The switch back to reality isn't an easy one but we are still on cloud nine from the events of the summer so that certainly helps! So with that said I think we are well overdo on a life update! Your girl is welcoming fall after a month in Europe and an incredible summer! Not only did my bestfriends get married in the most magical day, but we got to have a summer filled with so many celebrations. Summer 2024 will go down in the history books for sure as a summer of love. I also had another major life change earlier in the summer, I changed job! After five years at an agency, with the people I loved and who taught me so much. I got an opportunity at a company that is HUGE and rated a top company to work for. The job itself and benefits made it a deal I could not turn down....
