✨There is a lot I would want to tell little me that would have prevented me a lot of hurt. The main thing I would say is this: "Stop worrying about everyone else around you and what they are thinking, for everyone is focused on themselves. Instead, focus on your goals, dreams, and happiness.

Things I would NEVER say about 💰
Money is a *frequency* 🤑 & I CANNOT stress this enough. We don’t manifest what we want, we manifest how we feel. SO if we are always stuck in a LACK mindset we will manifest in more LACK. If you feel abundant & know money is coming in no matter what, that’s what you will attract.

how to say no in a nice way 🥰
Telling someone “no” is not rude, it’s called setting a boundary!! and you can set boundaries in a polite way! it doesn’t have to be “rude” and if someone doesn’t understand or takes it the wrong way, that’s on them. Being a people pleaser is rude to yourself!! You are not putting yourself
