Swipe ➡️ for the before! The guest room is actually the room that needed the least work in our house, but gosh those highlighter yellow used to drive me crazy to look at 😂 there’s still a few new things to come in here (new windows! Refinishing the floors!) but it feels a heck of a lot better these days 🙌
It’s so hard to believe someone could walk away from Nike’s new plus sizes mannequins with so much negativity. There is not one specific body size that equates automatically to health. I know I’ve grown up with a certain amount of thin privilege, but I know more then anyone how looks can be deceiving. ⁣ ⁣ Just a few years ago I was struggling to get through everyday life, experiencing chest pain, asthma problems and often had to take a break after walking up a flight of stairs, but I looked fine. I was still shopping in the smaller sizes, but I was absolutely not healthy. ⁣ ⁣ Let’s push our minds wide open and stop jumping to assumptions. It’s hard not to sometimes, I’ll admit it, but I try to constantly remind myself that I don’t know someone’s whole story. More then once I’ve been shown up at the gym by a girl twice my size, cranking out ten times more push ups then me. Let’s all encourage each other and strive to live and help others live their best lives ❤️
Decided to take a slow morning today instead of my normal 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ sometimes it’s exactly what my brain needs to reset. Sharing some thoughts over on my blog (link in profile). Have you ever woke up a little bit early just so you can have a slow morning?? Or am I just a crazy person 😂
