OWNING 35+ GRACEFULLY

and learning to love mostly every minute OF IT

Do you cringe at your age, or do you love where you’re at?

Truth be told, when I hit my mid 30's, I cringed. With so many myths & truths to aging, I was so not looking ​forward to it. Reality is, it will be slightly different for you then for me, but one thing is for sure. IT. IS. COMING!

Mindset was truly always part of the game changer for me, learning that what you & I make of where we are, is ​EVERYTHING! (for the most part). Because let me tell you, what I didn't know... giiiiirl! It shook me to my core.

What was it? The anxiety, the exhaustion, the overwhelming, overstimulating sense of the world weighing ​down on us! Does this resonate with you? Oooof... if you’re shaking your head, I 1000% get it!

So what helps? Do you “get over it”? Psssht... Girl, I have been DIGG-ING! Here’s the thing, its ALWAYS a work ​in progress. We are imperfect so we will forever struggle BUUUUUT there are things we can do to ease into it!

Here are 3 things I found helpful;

Journal your thoughts (Get your FREE Printable Journal Page)

Schedule quality girl time with your bestie(s)

Schedule ALONE time (this allows for reflection and callibration)

LETS TALK ABOUT...

hormones, baby!

Feeling sluggish? Fatigued? (like needing to sleep 12+ hours to feel normal), not quite the ​same as far as the libido is concerned? (IYKYK) or extremely irritable (like you’re so ​overwhelmed and the slightest noise ticks you off?). I get it, thats exactly where I have ​been in the last few years of my life. The reality is, it takes a super in-tune-with-themselves ​person to even know that something is off. With myself it started off with a Vitamin D ​deficiency that lead to many a thoughts of harm (which i haven’t felt since a teen if I’m ​honest). In time I realized that my libido was off, and my irritability went up from zero to ​1000 in less than 2 minutes, as a mother to a 4 yo & 11 yo we can agree thats not a good ​thing right? I mean it’s not a good thing EVER! I got some help along the way but I thought, ​how could I help YOU, my person(s). So, lets have fun and play 2 truths & a lie, Hormone’s in ​your late 30's addition 🤣

I’d love to hear from you and this is exclusive to my newsletter people. If you email what ​you think is the 2 truths & 1 lie then I will be giving away a 30 day trial to my absolutely ​favorite Happy Juice (ya’ll know I be trying to spoil you, so here it goes):

After reading the next 3 truths & lie’s I’d love to hear from you via Email as to what your 2 ​truths are and what the lie is (simply click on HERE of contact to automatically submit for ​your entry):

1. Progesterone levels tend to decline during perimenopause. This decrease can contribute to changes in the menstrual cycle, such as ​heavier or lighter periods, and may also cause issues like increased anxiety, irritability, and difficulty concentrating.

2. Testosterone levels increase during perimenopause, leading to a surge in energy and libido. In reality, testosterone levels typically ​decline during this phase, which can result in reduced libido and fatigue for many women.

3. During perimenopause, estrogen levels fluctuate significantly, leading to irregular menstrual cycles. These hormonal changes can cause ​symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and sleep disturbances, which are common experiences for women in their late ​30s and early 40s.

NAIL CARE 101

the importance of daily cutilce oil

As we kick off our Nail Care 101 series, I figured we’d start with the absolute basics: CUTICLE OIL

I get it, that might be something you’ve been doing and or maybe you are here, because you just started your DIY Nail ​Care Journey and are looking for tips to lengthen, strengthen and protect your natural nails.

Welp, the Number 1 way to start is with Daily, yes I said it... I knoooow... but it’s so so true! Daily oiling your cuticles with a ​quality oil that is targeting the needs YOU individually have is uber important! But you might be like why! Welp, ya know ​your girl does her research and here are the top 3 reasons I absolutely agree you need cuticle oil in your life:

1. Your cuticles are less likely to tear or split, which can lead to painful infections and unsightly nail beds.
   
2. Regular application of cuticle oil can significantly improve the overall strength and flexibility of your nails.
3. Well-maintained cuticles and nails are a subtle but important aspect of personal grooming that can boost your ​confidence and you know increasing your self worth is an absolutely important to me.
