ATTN CORPORATE GIRLIES — this is our new anthem ATTN CORPORATE GIRLIES — this is our new anthem and I will not be taking questions. 👏🏽

Get your mind right before you walk into that office sis. Because you are not just an employee. You are a whole entrepreneur who happens to still have a day job — and there is a difference.

The corporate world needs us present. But our dreams need us building. And the beautiful thing? We’re doing both. So turn this up on the way in. Fix your crown in the rearview. Walk through those doors like the main character you absolutely are — because after hours? We’re building something that’s going to make the 9-to-5 optional.

Love yourself loud sis. In the parking lot. In the boardroom. And especially when you’re building a life nobody handed you.

Drop 💛 if you’re a corporate girlie who’s also out here building something on the side — I see you and I am you. Let’s connect.

Real talk, from me to you: doing what’s right fo Real talk, from me to you: doing what’s right for your life will sometimes mean standing in a room full of people — completely alone. Do it anyway.

I know what it feels like to shrink. To keep a dream quiet because you already know how people are going to react. To say yes to everyone else and nothing to yourself. I lived there for a long time.

When I started building my health and wellness business I wasn’t met with applause. I was met with doubt, silence, and the kind of ‘support’ that comes with a side of skepticism. I almost let that be the reason I stopped.

But I kept going. And that business people quietly doubted? It pays me every single week. It built me a community of people who chose themselves too — who were standing alone in their own rooms before they found this. Now we stand together.

People pleasing is self-abandonment with a smile. And you have been abandoning yourself long enough.
You don’t need permission. You just need to decide that you matter enough to try.

Drop ALONE in my comments or DM me — I took the step nobody clapped for, and I’ll walk this road with you. 💙

“Scared money don’t make money. Scared decisio “Scared money don’t make money. Scared decisions don’t make change.” And I say that as someone who used to let fear run everything — my finances, my choices, my future.

I spent so long waiting for the perfect moment to start something different. Waiting until I had more money. More time. More confidence. More certainty. And while I was waiting, nothing changed. The bills didn’t wait. The years didn’t wait. Life didn’t wait. and the weight didn’t magically fall off 😂😂😂

The thing that finally shifted me wasn’t a magic moment. It was a decision. A decision to stop letting fear be the loudest voice in the room and start betting on myself for once.

I found a health and wellness business that let me start exactly where I was — no experience, no huge platform, no perfect plan. Just a system that works, products that actually changed how I feel every single day, and a team of people who showed up for me the way I now show up for others.

The people on my team were scared too. They overthought it too. They had the same lists of reasons why it wasn’t the right time. The only difference is they jumped anyway — and now they’re hitting bonuses, building income, and feeling better than they have in years.

If fear has been making your decisions, this is your sign to take it back. You deserve to find out what happens when you finally bet on yourself.

Drop LEAP in the comments or slide into my DMs and let’s talk about what this could look like for your life. I took the leap. I’ll help you take yours. 💚

Manifesting the day we get to scream ‘WE DID IT! Manifesting the day we get to scream ‘WE DID IT!’ because we never gave up. 🖤

This is what building together looks like. Two women who decided that the life they wanted wasn’t going to build itself — so they showed up, stayed consistent, and refused to quit on each other or themselves.

That’s what this business is at its core. It’s not just about the income, the bonuses, or the free products — although all of that is very real. It’s about having somebody in your corner who genuinely wants to see you win. A team that celebrates your first sale like it’s their own. People who answer the phone, share the knowledge, and remind you why you started when the days get hard.

We are building something here that goes beyond a paycheck. We’re building health — real, physical, feel-it-in-your-body health. We’re building financial freedom for families who have never had it. We’re building a legacy that our spouses, kids, nieces, nephews, etc get to watch us create in real time.

If you’ve been on the sidelines watching and something in you keeps saying ‘I want that’ — that feeling is not an accident. That’s your sign.

We are actively looking for NEW people to add to this team. People who are hungry, coachable, and ready to finally bet on themselves. You don’t need experience. You just need to be willing to show up.

Drop 🖤 in the comments or DM us the word TEAM and let’s have a real conversation about what this could look like for your life.

Are Vans Making a Comeback?

Happy Thursday Ya’ll! Hope everyones day is off to a great start! So recently I’ve been seeing more and more people wearing Vans. Yeah, you know the shoes I’m talking about….the skater boy shoes! I remember Vans and Airwalks were all the rage when I was in elementary and middle school. They weren’t super popular with girls, but if you weren’t “going out” with a boy in your class that owned a pair, then you were a “Loooooooooooser!” haha j/k! We’re all winners here! 🙂

But seriously, Van’s use to be super popular when I was younger, and just like every other fashion trend, fad, etc. it seems that they have made their way back. My nephews have been sporting them for the last several months, and they are really into everything Van’s branded. From the shoes to even the clothes. So naturally, when Christmas rolled around, this was an easy gift idea. We got them sweatshirts and shoes. They loved them!!

When my husband showed me what all he got from the Van store for our nephews, I made the comment that I think I would like a pair as well. Well little did I know, that Santa had already got me a pair and they were wrapped and under the tree, waiting patiently for me to open on Christmas morning. So as you can tell from the pictures below, my hubby surprised me with a pair of navy colored vans. I do not typically wear navy that often, but I remembered that I had purchased a navy sweater from Sloane Clothing Co. a couple months back, and figured this would be the best time to pair the two together!

Shoes – Vans “Old Skool” | Jeans – American Eagle | Sweater – Sloane Clothing Co. | Earrings – Tory Burch | Watch – Jord Wood Watch | Bag – Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM

Even though I’ve only had these super cute shoes on my feet for a few short hours, they are extremely comfortable and versatile. The best part is that they come in so many different colors and even textures, and to top it all off, they are only $60!!!! At that price you can afford to get a few pair in all your favorite colors! 🙂

Ok guys, I hope you loved this look as much as I loved wearing it, and be sure to check out Vans when you consider your next shoe purchases!

xoxo,
