Welcome to my blog!
I am so excited to be on this journey finally!
I’ve been dreaming up all the ways I want to take this, and I cannot wait to share all my ideas, tips, and helpful resources with you!
Let me know in the comments what content you would like to see on the blog, questions you have, and problems you’d like me to help you solve!
Keep reading to the end of the post where I talk more details about the giveaway! (GIVEAWAY CLOSED)
I have been wanting to start this blog for far too long.
I even attempted it a few times and gave up on it because I was too afraid of what others thought and I also felt major imposter syndrome.
I’ve learned that we all have something to share and to say and there are things that I know and are second nature to me, but that others don’t even know about.
There are things that have helped me and would be so valuable to others.
But we underestimate the things we know and the value we are able to bring to the table.
So I am here to show up, teach everything I know, and hopefully encourage you in some way, whether it be through value, inspiration, information, education, or entertainment.
I’m happy to have the opportunity to be putting a piece of my heart and mind out there.
I’m just here to share and provide as much value as I possibly can with those of you who choose to stick around!
I am so pumped to share with you our journey updating and renovating our first home, recipe attempts, outfit inspo, wellness, beauty, and so much more!
Here is an actual list of all the category topics that will be live on the blog!
You can find them on the top drop-down menu above as well.
Lifestyle Tips (my main category that most of my topics will fall under)
Hair + Skin Goals
I cannot wait to share with you all the different ways I take care of my hair and skin as well as my daily routines.
I used to never have a skincare routine, but now I have a morning AND evening skincare routine and can’t wait to share the details with ya!
Wellness + Beauty
I have always been interested in wellness and lately, I’ve been doing a ton of research on things and I’m always looking for new experts to learn from.
Our bodies are incredible and I also want to share how to embrace it, nourish it, and care for it.
I have so many beauty tips and makeup posts in the queue, (and even a few guests on the blog that I interviewed) you’re in for it!
Wedding Details
For those of you who don’t know me, I got married in October of 2019 and this is one topic I am so psyched to talk about on the blog.
Everything from planning the wedding, getting organized, DIY, decor, vendors, and everything you didn’t know you needed to know when it comes to being a bride-to-be.
From the bridal shower to picking your bridal party, the bachelor and bachelorette parties, the rehearsal dinner, the day of, the honeymoon, and so, so much more!
I am also currently a bridesmaid in my brother and future sister-in-law’s wedding that is taking place next month.
I am so pumped to get a ton of content out about what it means to be a bridesmaid and all my tips for helping to give the bride everything that she wants for her special day.
Home Sweet Home
My husband and I bought our first home and settled literally a month before our wedding date.
We did our best to get the house move-in ready and ended up moving in a week before our bridal shower.
There are so many things we have put off since then and I cannot wait to share with you our journey to updating and renovating this home!
We have SOO many ideas for what we want and I am especially excited to share all the interior design plans I have for our home!
I will be taking you along on the entire journey and sharing everything to help inspire you for when you get your first home or decide it’s time to turn it into a space you really enjoy!
Hosting + Entertaining
One of the things I cannot wait to really master and starting doing a better job on is to host and entertain guests.
There are a TON of ideas I have listed in my content ideas that I cannot wait to tackle and share with you!
Recipe Ideas
In March of 2020, I was laid off due to Co-vid, and ever since then, I have not stopped cooking!
I always believed I hated to cook, but once I was in quarantine and had nothing but time, I realized I actually enjoy it!
Who knew!
I have so many recipes and tips I want to show you!
Get Organized
Getting organized is one of my favorite things to do.
Staying organized is something I’ve somewhat mastered in a few areas and decluttering is the beginning step of all of it.
Ready to finally get organized?
Good!
Because I cannot wait to inspire you to get and stay organized!
Cleaning Tips
I think I may or may not love cleaning more than I love organizing.
Especially now having our own house to clean and upkeep has been very enjoyable.
I am going to be sharing with you my daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal, and yearly cleaning tasks as well as all my top cleaning tips and hacks!
Outfit Inspo
This is something I’ve always wanted to put more effort into but never did.
That’s all changing now!
The blog and my Instagram feed need more of it!
Ready to look and feel cute?
I can’t wait to help you!
Personal Growth
Personal development and growth is something I discovered in probably 2015?
It wasn’t as popular as it is now, and I feel like it gets bigger and bigger with each passing year.
Personal growth is a choice and it is also something that you have to work on, on a daily basis.
It is a continuous, never-ending journey.
I cannot wait to share with you all my favorite books, podcasts, mindset shifts, and experts on the topic!
Relationship Things
Marriage, family, friendships, your network.
All the above.
Anything and everything that has to do with your connection to someone, this is where it’s at.
Excited to share some awesome ideas on this!
Have Fun
What is life without a little bit of fun?
I had to add this category because life is all about balance.
I do my best to make sure I am not only enjoying each area of my life but having a little fun with it as well.
Be sure to be on the lookout for tips and ideas for not only having fun but applying it to all the different areas of your life!
Blogging + Business
This is something I am happy to dive into on the blog.
Everything that I’m learning about blogging and about online business is worth sharing.
If I can help just one person with the things I’ve been learning, ill be happy.
Hopefully, I’m able to help a lot more than one person, but I cannot wait to pour this one into the blog.
Holiday + Gifting
With every blog post topic, I keep saying I cannot wait to share more about it.
But this one is definitely one I’m most excited about!
I LOVE reading gift idea lists and tips and ideas for all the holidays!
Now it’s my turn to put my spin on it!
That makes me excited!
Over time, I will be doing my best to fill up those categories evenly with content, so if there’s anything you’d like to see on the blog, please let me know in the comments or you can send me an email here.
With that being said, I’m doing a giveaway to celebrate my blog launch!! (GIVEAWAY CLOSED)

I use the Berry Scrub about once or twice a week. I normally use it in the shower and try to leave it on for at least 5 mins.
I especially make sure I use it after I’ve worn makeup. it leaves my skin feeling smooth as a baby’s butt.
My skin has not been the same since I’ve started using it!
