Rainbow Stripes and Sunshine

I’m sharing a bold dress for under $30 and some life updates!

The past couple of months have been a whirlwind. I went home to visit my family last week and my husband’s family a few weeks ago. I feel like I have been playing catch up ever since. The nice thing about getting away is that I always return home with a fresh perspective and feel recharged.

Last month marked my eight year anniversary as a blogger. I can’t believe I have been doing it for this long. I’m so lucky to have made a career for myself that allows me to do what I love each day. I create delicious recipes, decorate my house, make things, share my fashion favorites, and get to ride in the Hollywood Hills when I need a break from the computer. I drool over and post beautiful barns on Stable Style, I’ve partnered with so many wonderful brands, and have become friends with so many amazing women online. Sometimes I work on weekends and sometimes I take random week days off, this job is whatever I make it.  I’m thankful for everything I have and the amount of growth I’ve seen, especially over these past couple of years. Growing up in a small town and on a farm taught me the value of working hard and what that means. Living in a bustling city has taught me how to thrive, survive, and embrace being outside of my comfort zone.

When life gets overwhelming I try to focus on my accomplishments and everything I have instead of comparing myself to others, zoning in on what’s still missing or hasn’t been achieved. The mindset of being successful is so much more powerful than the success itself. As I dive deeper into goals and what I want to achieve – I’ve realized one of them is motivating others to be confident, create plans, and reach their goals. That’s why I’m now offering coaching sessions. I officially announced these on social media and in the newsletter a few weeks ago, but I wanted to make sure I mentioned it here as well. If you feel like you are at a tipping point and want to grow your blog or small business, reach out. I’m an open book and you can ask me anything on the phone.
