  • Little Moon’s 4 Months!! She’s not into learning to roll, but is very into learning to hold things and put them in her mouth 😂 🌙 🌙 And since we are one month out of it, it’s given me some time to reflect and today OTB I’ve partnered with @HancockRegional to share my tips & things to remember to not only survive the 4th trimester, but to *thrive*! Click the link in my bio to read 👉 @theconfusedmillennial 🌙 🌙 AND tell me, 1️⃣, 2️⃣, or 3️⃣ 😍😍😍
  • Little 🌙 ‘s got a big 😃 on her face because she wants you all to check out her nursery! It’s live on my YouTube channel (swipe up in story/highlight!) 🌙 🌙 Also I DIYed the eye 🧿 above! Do you want a tutorial?! 👇👇👇
  • LBH, our financial situations aren't always rainbows 🌈 and butterflies 🦋 In fact, nearly half of Americans can't cover a $400 emergency. Back when I worked as a substance abuse counselor, I saw just how stressful that could be. Currently, state legislators are potentially going to rule to make things even harder for those already struggling by removing their access to short-term loans. Which I totally get! Before working in substance abuse, I thought short-term loans were predatory scams. Why would anyone want to leave a tool out there that potentially keeps the underbanked, underbanked? But while I worked as a substance abuse counselor, I saw just how important short-term loans can be to vulnerable populations. How they were often the only option available and acted as the saving grace between them and homelessness while on the road of recovery. I'm sharing more about my experience with short-term loans and thoughts on the current legislation on the blog today (click the link in my bio 👉@theconfsuedmillennial). 💸 💸 And tell me, do you think state legislators should take away people's access to short-term loans?
  • You guys asked for it! I’m sharing my hair tutorial and routine with you all in my latest Youtube video (swipe up in the pinned beauty highlight!). It’s a bit longer than it actually takes me to do my hair because I’m sharing loadsss of tips for hair care and styling throughout! I talk about how I trained my hair so it’s easy and low maintenance AF (I don’t even use any products or brush even brush my hair!) seriously it takes me about 10 minutes to do each week and that’s it! 💁🏻‍♀️ 💇🏻‍♀️ Now tell me all of YOUR hair care and styling secrets! 👇👇👇
  • Last week I had a few people, in a few different situations, basically refer to me as a commodity. They implied the only way to earn money as a blogger was by under cutting the competition. Being the lowest priced option out there for brands to work with in other words. 💸 💸 This made me 😂😂😂! Especially since I was reading #PullingProfitsOutOfAHat! In the book they talk about ways to multiply your profits and how to stop viewing your business as a commodity. For instance how many of us have iPhones? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ iPhones are def not the cheapest phone on the market, but we perceive greater value in them and are willing to pay more. 💸 💸 That’s how I view what I do as a content creator. I know the market demand, metrics, customer service, and quality of my work to back up my rates. I’m not settling for the lowest offer or working for free product because that’s going to kill my profits (and hurt the industry and other bloggers!). Head to the link in my bio to read the full post of what I learned from the book on maximizing profits 👉@theconfusedmillennial 💸 💸 🗣 Now tell me, no matter what type of work you do, how are you focusing on your value rather than being the cheapest option available? 👇👇👇 #ad #itsnitmagic
  • My little moon 🌙 Thank you for making me a mama. Thank you for choosing us. Thank you for spreading your light and joy. 💖 I’ve had a complicated relationship with this day for most of my twenties, but today it felt simple for the first time in many years. Being your mama has shown me that my prayers these last few years had finally been answered... I prayed that I’d learn to be my own mother. My own nurturer, my own source of unconditional love so that I could be that for both myself and another. Being your mom and building our little family, has shown me that my prayers have been answered 💖
  • 👀 I spy with my little eyes a partial glimpse at our home mood board 🌈 Yep! ICYMI on the blog today I’m breaking down tips for creating a mood board for your entire home! Not just a room! Moving into our home was a big adjustment for us, our last place was the first time we ever bought furniture and we stuck with just the bare essentials since we were starting from scratch. This time though, I get to go HAM with decor! But I don’t want it to look like a hot mess so I got organized and made a little mood board to keep things flowy throughout our space! I share a sneak peek into our home style too in the video plus some extra tips not in the blog post! Head to the link in my bio to catch them both! ✨ ✨ Are you more of 1️⃣ have a loose theme in mind” or 2️⃣ pick things at total random as you go type of decorator?
  • 🍿 Curl up with some popcorn and your mom (or baby or pet or self!) and click the link in my bio for the Ultimate Lost Of Mother’s Day movies! Seriously I have over 50 movies about moms rounded up and there is definitely one for everyone! Whether you’re a mom yourself, love your mom, hate her, never met her, there’s one for you! 🎥 ✨ ✨ What’s your favorite movie about mamas? While there are some amazing ones on the list, Stepmom is my all time favorite, although I did really enjoy Life Of The Party recently!
  • Work-life balance looks like sitting at the backyard table while writing out your shopping list enjoying the relaxing views after showing up to work earlier in the day doing a job that I love 💖 ✨ ✨ Haha but real talk- how many of you think work-life balance is a unicorn?! Personally, I think it all depends on how you define work-life balance. To me, it’s about finding that mix of passions that keeps your tank full. If it doesn’t bring joy then thank it for serving you and ditch it. Life’s too short and time is too limited to try to define work-life balance as an equal division of time - especially if that time is spent doing things that drain you! E and I talk alllll about this in the latest episode of @tcmpodcast! ✨ ✨ LMK, what does work-life balance look like to you?

Let's be Insta-Friends!
