I would like to think that I’m what some would call a #BossBabe… someone who is kind but tough, sweet but sassy, and friendly but not a pushover. What I really am is a people-pleaser who doesn’t know how to say “no” and someone who hates confrontation. But I want to be that kind, tough, sweet, sassy, and friendly girl who can handle anything that comes my way, including the occasional (and often uncomfortable) confrontation. I want to be that girl! I want to be that girl… The one who smiles politely when people look at me, the one who […]
Sunday Inspiration: Be a #BossBabe
I have recently come to realize that in order to become a more productive #BossBabe, I must do some things first. Make some goals.

What do You Give Power to?
“It all begins and ends in your mind. What you give power to has power over you.” I was scrolling through my Instagram feed this morning and saw this quote on Bethany Noel Mota’s feed. It is such an inspiring quote, simply because it’s true. You say you’re afraid, then fear has power over you. You say you’re tired or exhausted, then that feeling of exhaustion has power over you.
