Here I am. All of these things are true. All of them have held me back in the past. Not long ago, if you had asked me to show up on social media with no makeup, no filter, no great hair day and in a sports bra I would have laughed you out of the room then quietly cried in the shower! So what has changed? Several small habits that result in one hell of a mindset shift! Want to jump on board the self love train? Here’s what I’m working on:
⬇️
1. Be mindful of who you share virtual space with. Follow people who look like you that you relate to right now and are doing the hard things. Remove anyone from social media who makes you feel bad.

2. Get some accountability buddies. Whether you’re working out, writing a book, trying to stay calm with your kids – find people doing it now and link arms to celebrate the wins and validate the un-wins.

3. Pay attention. To everything. The colours of the sunrise, the feel of your kid’s hand in yours, the taste of your popcorn, the steam of the shower. All those little joy nuggets roll together to create a happier foundation from which to operate!

4. Water: drink it, bathe in it, look at it, step in it.

5. Buy good clothes. They don’t have to be expensive, but if they feel good and look good and honour your body then you will walk around with your crown a little straighter, I promise.

Which tip is most helpful? Do you have one to add? I’d love to know!
