In 2017 — Be Your Own Light

Let 2017 be the year where you finally acknowledge how special you are. And no matter your relationship status, your income amount, the kind of car you drive in, the kind of home you live in and the kind of family you come from, you know in your heart that you are so incredibly worthy.

When You Miss Her, Remember This

When you miss her, remember to give yourself a slap on the face because that’s what she would’ve wanted you to do. And when you miss her, remember all the words you never said and know you’re the reason it’s over.

Why ‘Almost’ Is Never Enough

So please, speak up for yourself. Please treat yourself like gold. You are a wonderful, strong human being. You are not a piece of meat. You are not just a body. You are not something to be forgotten. And you are not something to be tossed to the side of the road.
