birthday celebration

30, Flirty, & Thriving

It’s my 30th birthday today!

AHHHH! How did that even happen?

I’ve learned a lot in my 30 years and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for this new era in my life!

To commemorate this big birthday I want to share some of the biggest life lessons I’ve learned so far. As someone who feels like I’ve lived through several lives, lost people, loved, been hurt, made my dreams realities and everything in between there are a few big things I’ve learned so far!

Lesson 1: Love with all your heart.

Yes this could hurt you later on but loving with your whole self could be the best feeling in the world! I have the most amazing husband that I love with all my heart. I only found him after loving the wrong guys but I never felt like I didn’t try. As far as family, same thing. I never don’t tell my parents I love them, they are beyond the most special people to me. Always tell people that you love them!

Lesson 2: Be true to who you are.

I mostly understood this early on. I grew up ballroom dancing, living in a world that kids my age didn’t understand. Dancing was my first true love, something that was always true to who I am. As I’ve gotten older I’ve grown more to understand it’s ok to not like everything that everyone else likes and make the decisions that best serve you. Be you and do what you want to do!

Lesson 3: Follow your dreams, make them a reality!

Within the last few years I’ve really understood what it’s like to turn your dreams in reality. I’m living a life I never thought possible. I never thought I could work for myself and live a life I created, but here we are a little over a year into and I could never go back! I took a leap and it paid off! Make your dreams a reality, anything is possible!

Just some food for thought! Now I’m off to celebrate this day!

My 29th Birthday and Lessons I'm Taking With Me!

Happy Wednesday again friends!

Today’s post is a BIG birthday post! Today is actually my mom’s birthday and I celebrated my 29th birthday on Monday! So today I’m sharing a fun birthday look with some lessons I’m taking into the last year in my 20’s along with a birthday note to my mom!

So far my 20’s have taught me a lot! I’m grateful for the lessons and the growth over the past several years! I learned about being in a relationship through long distance and then knowing it was wanted and who I wanted to be with forever. I’ve learned you can be confident in who you are and still want to grow and change at the same time! I’ve learned with people in my life it’s quality over quantity. It’s ok to say NO to plans and take time for yourself, that’s OK! I’ve learned not to compare myself to anyone as I’m on my own path on my own journey and I’ll get to where I’m supposed to be when I should be there. These are just a few important lessons the last 8 years have taught me! I’m grateful for them! My 29th year I’m focusing on my health and growing ('in business, personally, and in life) before the big 3-0 next year! AHHHH! I’m so excited for this next trip around the sun and all it has to hold!

Today is my mom’s birthday and I want to take a minute to celebrate her! She’s my best friend and I’m so blessed that she is my mom! As I’ve gotten older I’m more and more grateful for the relationship with my mom and everything she does for me! She’s so special and just the best ever and I’m so lucky she’s my mom! I could go on and on! I have some of my favorite moments with her below! Love you mom!
