Okay, so picture this: You're scrolling through your phone, another notification pops up, and you think, "Ugh, where did the day go?!" 🙋‍♀️ If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. I used to be the queen of "busy but not productive," constantly juggling tasks but feeling l

No, it’s not that bad. Have I had some bad experiences? Sure. But overall, joining the military has brought so many positives to my life! 🌼QUALITY OF LIFE + PAY🌼 I honestly think I get compensated pretty damn well for having no prior experience + no college degree. I live in a really nice apart

Stress can feel like a constant companion, especially as a college student. However there is no reason to feel defeated and discouraged by stress, at least not continually. Here are my top tips on dealing with stress: 💡Validate Your Feelings : It’s okay to feel overwhelmed and stressed. I

If you want to be a content creator but you’re scared of being judged… this post is FOR YOU. For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to be a content creator. I wanted to do Youtube when I was little and have tried on and off to MULTIPLE times over the past 10 years and never stuck with it. I

i just recently started running again after a 3-year hiatus and let me tell you… it wasn’t easy! i went from being able to run miles without stopping to feeling like a single mile was impossible! i’ve tried many times to get back into running over the course of the past 3 years, but i’d only ev

Since high school, I’ve always had dreams of being an entrepreneur and self-employed. But I ALWAYS hid this part of me from almost everyone I knew. This dream was so embarrassing!! 🥺 I felt like it was cringe to even believe I could do it. So, with every business I’ve started, I’ve done it anonymou

YOUR NOT ALONE! No one talks about it because you’re technically skinny. Many people, including me, have “skinny fat” bodies and they are perfectly healthy. As long as you are happy and healthy. But it’s good to know there is community of people that feel skinny fat too! And we need to support ea

It’s really easy to determine if somebody is being sincere or not especially in relationships. From the start you will be able to tell if somebody is there for you or if they’re there for themselves and there’s so many signs that come with this. If you’re OK with casual, it may be harder to tell bu

Here are some of my favorite parts about being an operating room nurse 💉1:1 nurse/patient ratio - 1:1 says enough -Focusing on one patient at a time - on top of being 1:1 in the OR the patient is asleep! 💉teamwork & collaboration - you are never alone in the OR. Their doctors ar

If you’re looking to lose weight, improve your overall health, or just get more movement in your day, increasing your step count is one of the simplest ways to do it. Walking is a low-impact exercise that’s easy to fit into your routine, and the best part? You don’t need a gym membership, expensive

I ended up not exactly in the position that I saw my life going when I was 19 1/2 and had a daughter. I was in a toxic relationship that ended when I was 20/21 and had to get my degree while being a single mom to a baby!!! Here is what helped me… - my family’s support and my mom being able to w

This was one of my favorite reads of last winter and I feel like I don’t talk about it enough. WORRY follows two sisters living in Brooklyn and all of their messy fumblings through life as they come to terms with being in their late 20s. The writing will make you laugh out loud and it’s written

This happens to me way more than I want to admit. I’ll go to bed fully exhausted, ready to pass out, and then the second I think “what if I can’t fall asleep,” my whole body flips into panic mode. Suddenly I’m hot. My heart is pounding. I’m hyper aware of every sound. And once the thought starts

It often feels like everyone is SO quick to want to be in a relationship.. but there are so many beautiful things about being single you should enjoy! Before my boyfriend and I got together 4 years ago, I absolutely loved my singlehood. It’s when I learned to prioritize myself and discover who I am

I’m so lucky that I’ve been able to travel so many places at a young age. One of the good things about having a big immigrant family is that they’ve been scattered all over the world and we make it a priority to visit them. Alhamdulillah, despite it’s difficulties the life I live is an amazingly

- ✨ all sugar daddies do NOT want sugar ✨ you have to set the tone and be in control of what you want, and also make clear expectations off the top! ✨ it’s not just about glitz and glamz! It’s about building a real relationship with a FRIEND. ( this helps in the long run) it’s not just about you

This is my boyfriend, Chaney. He loved football, cars, his locs, his family, hot and honey sauce,making beats cooking, making music, etc. And outside of that, we were each other’s love of our lives. Just last week we were at our baby’s prenatal appointment in awe seeing him moving and kicking. An

Sometimes, home just isn’t it when it comes to getting stuff done. That’s why I rotate my favorite cozy little study spots: 📙Local Library: some libraries offer private study rooms, and mine has them for 2 hours at a time (if I get there and they’re not all taken!) If they are full, I go to a t

I was single from 18-28… and I didn’t mind it one bit. I’ll be honest - a lot of people around me subconsciously and consciously made me feel like I was missing out, but once I start serial dating after a freak incident scared me - I wasn’t missing out on much. In fact, I didn’t find ‘the one’ u

i had my first child when i was 22 and my husband was 23! now we are 25 and 26 with two kids and we absolutely love being young parents. there’s a lot of good reasons to wait until you’re older to have kids (and i do believe that for most people it’s probably better to wait until you’re older)

This was #stunning and even went under it! That is always my favorite if I can ever do that! Even though the water was freezing as ice and got my legs numb, it was the best feeling in the world to be able to be one with my #waterfall . This is a 1.3 mile loop #graveyardfalls #northcaroli

One thing I didn’t add is care.com is so great because in this generation social interaction is really hard and you are able to quit or take other job opportunities through the app without having to interact with the family just in case you have a bad job experience or you have a close connection w

Along with being in nursing school I’m also very SLOWLY studying to get my real estate license and this was the best deal price wise, time wise, and resource wise. Aceable agent has SOO many resources within the website/app (they even have a quizlet!) and I only paid $230 while they were doing idea

I hate when people say nurses or just anyone in healthcare makes it their whole personality. Even if true, I say as they should. It’s something that you’ll honestly never be able to understand until you have put in the hours, the tears, & the dedication that it takes. It changes you as a person

Mexican Gothic: I loved how smart and savvy Noemí was throughout the book. How even when she was scared, she tried to be logical and keep her wits about her. Noemí just has the vibe of “I don’t need no man”, but is still open to accepting love in her life. She had goals and objectives, and she st
