My favorite notifications lately? THESE RIGHT HERE My favorite notifications lately? THESE RIGHT HERE. 😭👏🏽🖤

Listen, I can talk about my own wellness journey ALL DAY LONG, but when my phone starts lighting up with messages from customers sharing their experiences? THAT’S A WHOLE DIFFERENT KIND OF EXCITEMENT! 🔥

The nervous first-timers realizing the process wasn’t nearly as intimidating as they expected.

The customers celebrating their weight-loss milestones.

The messages about feeling better, having more energy, and noticing changes they’re genuinely excited about.

And yes…apparently some of y’all are going to need a new wardrobe. 😂🛍️

THIS is why I love what I do.

Not just sharing products, but being someone my customers can ask questions, lean on for accountability, and celebrate their wins with.

Because behind every one of these messages is a REAL person with REAL goals. And getting to cheer them on? That’s the good stuff.

Curious about my supplement and peptide journey or what my customers are sharing? 💌 Comment “READY” or send me a DM. I’m happy to share my experience, answer questions about the process, and help you identify what products would be best for YOU! 🫶🏾

Justin: “Babe, you look really small today..” Me: Justin: “Babe, you look really small today..”

Me: “really? you think? 👀 Do I look ok?”

Justin: “You’ve always looked great, but you look really good! I’m proud of you!”

Me: “☺️😚 oh stooooop…..but no keep going!” ha!

LISTEN! If I don’t stick to my upgraded wellness routine for any other reason, I’m going to stick to it for my damn self-esteem and the renewed sense of confidence it has given me! 

Unless you’ve personally experienced it, you just won’t understand. But being a woman and turning 40 is NOT, I repeat, is NOT for the weak! Your body changes in ways you never even imagined, and with that comes being discouraged and extremely hard on yourself when the reflection in the mirror isn’t what you had been use to for the prior 39 years! 

So today, I’m celebrating the fact that I got out of my own way and made the decision to get back to ME!  Heck, ya’ll just might see me come out of retirement and sign up to run another marathon! 😂🎉 Who’s joining me?!? Any takers👀👀

Happy Monday Friends! Don’t forget to go be great today! 💪🏽

Every time someone asks me about my peptide journe Every time someone asks me about my peptide journey and says, “But I’m still on the fence…” 👀

My response? BABY, I LIVED ON THAT FENCE FOR ALMOST A YEAR! 😂👏🏽

I questioned everything. Overthought everything. And talked myself out of even exploring my options more times than I can count.

But here’s what I’ve learned and what I now tell everyone to else……Give yourself 3 MONTHS.

Not just 3 months on peptides. Three months of getting serious about YOU. LOCK IN. 🔒 Your nutrition. Your water. Your movement. Your consistency. And give yourself a real opportunity to see what changes.

Because 3 months are going to pass whether you do something differently or not. 👏🏽

I’m almost 17 pounds down, feeling more like myself again, and STILL working toward my goals! 🖤

And trust me…I’m glad I finally stopped letting fear make my decisions.

And if you know me, you know I researched, questioned, overthought and probably annoyed everybody with 947 questions first. 😂

But eventually I realized something: Being skeptical is fine. Staying uninformed because you’re skeptical is different.

So, after talking with my provider, I decided to try a medically supervised microdose as one part of a bigger wellness routine—nutrition, movement, hydration, supplementation and consistency included.

Apparently I had my 40s ALL wrong. 😂👏🏽 I@really th Apparently I had my 40s ALL wrong. 😂👏🏽 I@really thought this was just…it.

The weight gain.
The inflammation.
The clothes fitting too tight.
The energy changes.
And looking in the mirror thinking, “Well damn…is this what we’re doing now?” 🥴😂

Then I decided I wasn’t spending the rest of my 40s simply accepting a version of myself I didn’t feel good in.

So I changed some things.
Got serious about my wellness.
Stayed consistent.
And stopped talking myself out of trying something different.

16 pounds later just over the last 11 weeks……And I’m not even finished.

This chapter isn’t about trying to look 25 again. It’s about becoming the healthiest, strongest, most confident version of ME at THIS age. And apparently……what I’m doing is working!! 

If you’re in your 40s thinking, “I just want to feel like myself again,” I got you!

January 2019 Boxycharm + Giveaway

Happy Saturday Ya’ll!! I hope you are all staying warm! We are currently under a winter weather advisory here in Kentucky, and we are expecting our first real snow of the winter season! And yes I used an exclamation mark because I’m super excited! I just love the snow!!

Coming back from vacation, I had my content all planned out, but then I checked my mailbox, and my January Boxycharm was waiting for me. My Boxycharm subscription as you all know, is one of my absolute favorite subscription services. You get 5-6 full size products each month that retail for over $120, and all you have to pay is $21 a month! What sets them apart from the other services out there is that they actually give you bigger, well-known brand named products each month. A lot of services only provide you with products from indie brands, and the products you receive are only travel and/or trial size.

So this month, I had the below products hand selected for me based on my beauty style preference profile:

OFRA Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick ($20)

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Eyeshadow & Highlighter Vol. III ($36)

Briogeo Rosarco Milk ($9)

Billion Dollar Brows Universal Brow Pencil ($18)

Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Sheet Mask ($24)

So as you can see, this months box was pretty good. 3 out of 5 isn’t bad, at least not in my opinion! I’m definitely using the Tatcha Sheet Masks, the OFRA liquid lipstick, and the BDB pencil. As for the remaining two items, the hair products I never really use. I have natural transitioning hair at the moment, and I’m pretty strict about the products I do use. I don’t stray too far from my holy grail hair products. And for the star of this months Box is the Tarte Eyeshadow Palette. If you’ve been following me for a while, then you know about my feelings towards Tarte Cosmetics. If you have no idea what I’m talking about, I have two videos on my YouTube channel where I discuss it, but the condensed version is on my recent upload down below. You can hear all about it and understand why I feel the way I do.

So now that you’ve hopefully watched the video, and understand where Tarte and I stand, we can now get on to the main reason I’m sure you’ve read this post all the way to this point…….THE GIVEAWAY! Over the course of the last 2-3 Boxycharms I’ve received, there has been one or two Tarte products in them. So since I am not a wearer of their products, I figured I shouldn’t let the products go to waste, and the best thing to do would be to pass them along to someone that I know will use them.

I am giving away three Tarte products to one lucky winner so that you can create your favorite eye look!

  • Tarte Limited-Edition Rainforest of the Sea Highlighting Eyeshadow Palette Vol. III ($36)
  • Tarte PRO Cruelty-Free Lashes ($12)
  • Tarte PRO Lash Adhesive ($9)

To enter this giveaway, all you have to do is click on the link below and follow the instructions. You have the opportunity to have your name entered into the drawing more than once by following me on all social platforms. The giveaway will close on Friday, January 25, 2019 at 11:59pm EST. Be sure to share this post and the giveaway details with all of your friends and connections!!

If you are interested in trying Boxycharm for yourself, its definitely the only beauty subscription box that I confidently recommend to my readers and subscribers. Click HERE to sign up!

Create Your Best Eye Look + Tarte Cosmetics Giveaway

Good Luck everyone, and thanks for stopping by!

xoxo,

And stopped talking myself out of trying something different.

16 pounds later just over the last 11 weeks……And I’m not even finished.

This chapter isn’t about trying to look 25 again. It’s about becoming the healthiest, strongest, most confident version of ME at THIS age. And apparently……what I’m doing is working!! 

If you’re in your 40s thinking, “I just want to feel like myself again,” I got you!

👇🏽 Comment “READY” and I’ll share what I changed and what my current wellness routine looks like.

And FOLLOW because this little midlife plot twist is just getting started. 😂🖤
