1. Your Professors Are A Resource🤝 I was so intimidated by my professors at first, but I promise they're just people who are passionate about their subject. Going to office hours just to introduce myself was a game-changer that led to a great internship recommendation later on. 2. Skills Ov

I applied this at 5:45 AM and around 12:00 PM I was told that a pleasant young woman said, “Tell THAT girl to tone it down with the vanilla next time.” I understand that vanilla isn’t a fragrance that everyone loves so that part doesn’t bother me. Well… none of it bothers me really. I actually find

Let’s talk about periods specifically my real experience with tampons, pads, and menstrual cups. Because no one really teaches us how different they can feel on our bodies until we go through it ourselves. So here’s my little storytime I started out using pads because that’s what my mom gave me

I stumbled across these at Barnes & Noble when I was looking for another book & had to stop myself from buying them all 😭 I cannot wait to add these to my collection of books to read! The order it’s in here is how you’re supposed to read them (as per what the lady at B&N said) I thi

we’d only known each other for three months when we got engaged. you knew this. you knew he was more excited about it than i was and you knew i didn’t want anything more than absolutely necessary. saying, “i love you” had stopped being enough. i wanted to do more. so when marriage came up, it

Finding myself again hasn't looked the way I expected. For a long time, I thought it meant getting back to who I used to be. What I'm learning is that it's not about going backwards. It's been messy, uncomfortable, healing, and worth it. 🤍 These are a few lessons I'v

i’ve been through the ringer in life, i’m not gonna lie. things haven’t been easy and i’ve worked incredibly hard to get where i’ve gotten, but it all worked out in the end. i have a job that i love, a supportive partner who loves me for me, a group of real friends who uplift me instead of teari

Next time I will definitely consider actually buying these! First time being postpartum was eye opening and I was definitely prepared for my baby, but not for my recovery. I ended up having a c-section and everything about my birth experience and recovery wasn’t what I wanted at all. I wish I had

If you’re struggling to stay consistent, read these twice — they would’ve saved me so much time, frustration, and skipped workouts. And yes, I use the RunStar scale (linked in my bio) because I don’t have access to a DEXA scan… and the data keeps me accountable. As an Amazon Associate, I may earn

i guess you can say, this funk was extra funkyyy and lasted much longer than the low seasons i've had in the past. fortunately, it wasn't so bad to where i stayed in bed all day, but it did get to the point where i had no motivation to do anything, and when i did take action, i felt numb.

When I was in my first relationship I had no guidance. If I had known a few of these things I would have had a different view point. There was a lack of security within myself because I did not follow a few steps. Without teaching myself I would have entered my next relationship with the same minds

This post I wish I had when I was in my early 20s, because everything that felt so big to me then seems so small looking back. So I’d like to to give some advice to my past self, as well as any twenty year old out there now who could maybe benefit from this. Just know you are so much stronger than

Hello, everyone! My name is Cassidy, and I’ve recently reignited my passion for makeup. I’m here to share and take pride in the looks I create while documenting my progress. I’m always learning and looking to improve my skills. When I was younger, I was a little diva who almost never went to sch

Living alone isn’t easy. There are a lot of things that you have to do and things you learn when living by yourself. I’ve lived alone for over a year and I’m learning things every single day. But i’ve grown to love being myself and having the freedom to do whatever I want whenever I want and I defi

I kept thinking, “who am I to give advice?” But then I remembered this is my story. And that matters. Whether you’re on day 1 or year 5…your journey is still valid. Keep going. 🫶🏾💕 #trustthejourney #blackgirllifestyle #blackgirlaesthetic #blackgirllemon8creator

*****TW***** Please understand these are my truths about my weight loss under the supervision of medical professionals. Your size does not define YOU!! You are loved and wanted here no matter how you look! Suicide Hotline: 988 NEDH:(800) 931-2237 Last September I started my weight loss

I didn’t find myself by adding more. 🌸 I found myself by finally putting things down. Stopping the over-explaining. Stopping the shrinking. Stopping the apologies for simply having needs. Stopping the comparison that was stealing joy that was already mine. It wasn’t dramatic. It wasn’t ove

Finding time to read in this hectic world can be tough, especially with all the added distractions. I'm making a conscious choice this year to sneak in reading when I can and replacing scrolling with a couple of pages. This past Saturday I didn't pressure myself to read in one sitting but r
