  • Loving all the expanded options from @imperfectproduce! Unboxing and review coming at you on Monday!
  • Me, pretending it’s Spring and ignoring the fact that we’re supposed to get a ton more snow this week 🤷🏼‍♀️
  • This photo isn’t “Instagram perfect.” I could do easily write it off an an outtake- the exposure is off, the lines aren’t perfectly straight, there are cheesy decorations from a holiday that has come and gone in the background, and it might not fit into my “theme” the way it’s supposed to. But that’s the thing- life isn’t always perfectly curated. It’s messy and inconsistent and imperfect, and that’s what makes it special! My advice for the day: let’s ditch the “curated” feed once in a while and just post about things that make us happy. You in?
  • *currently not feeling this emotion cuz I forgot to renew my CA license so now I have to take the written and driving tests again in Washington (and they make you parallel park 😭)* EDIT: I PASSED BOTH HOORAY!
  • I’ve been thinking a lot recently about the very fine line between protecting your mental health and giving yourself an excuse to stay stagnant. As someone who struggles with anxiety and depression, it can be really difficult for me to decipher whether saying no to something is setting a healthy boundary, or just plain avoiding a chance of failure. One huge thing that I did to overcome that this month was to audition for a musical. If you knew me between the ages of 13-18, you know that I lived and breathed theatre. Unfortunately, the panic attacks and resulting self deprecation I experienced at auditions made me mostly quit theatre by the time I finished my first year in college. I missed that side of me for so long, but told myself that it was better for me to avoid getting hurt. Finally, this month I took the risk of auditioning for another show. I’m not gonna lie to you- it was hard. I found myself quickly slipping into the same old patterns of panic and disappointment in myself, but I pushed through it, and actually got the role! I can’t promise I’m going to make big brave choices every day from here on out, but it does feel good to not let my anxiety run my life. Working on overcoming it and having a healthy relationship with failure isn’t easy, but it’s definitely worth the effort and if you’re struggling with it too, I want you to know that you’re not alone 💛
