soft heart, strong boundaries 💅🏽


hola Reader!

this week’s Travel, Transformations & Tacos Tuesday 🌮 flavour: soft exits + self-love reminders 💌

lately, i’ve been having the same conversation again and again
- with clients
- with sensitive souls in my DMs
- and with myself, honestly

this season feels like a deep exhale

a “no more overgiving, overexplaining, or overriding my own needs” kind of chapter

and it’s got me journaling like a fiesty femme who is realizing just how much her wishy washy boundaries have been plaguing her in every layer of her life 🫠

and is finally remembering the spicy layer of herself that usually lays dormant while the soft, sparkly version flows free

here’s a little excerpt from one of my juicy journaling morning pages:

“I’m in my ‘don’t explain, just exit’ era.
Not because I don’t care. But because I care
deeply
About my peace. My softness. My nervous system. My energy.
So if it costs me those things — it’s too expensive.”

i shared a few pieces with a few people in my inner circle, and apparently they hit home for people other than me too!

so0o this week, i turned those thoughts into a little carousel post on IG

a love letter, really - to anyone who could use a lil permission to stop proving themselves and start protecting their glow ✨

take what you need, love

and loving reminder that you don’t owe anyone an explanation for taking care of yourself

big love and boundary blessings,

Wellness

my body decided a few days before i fly internationally for a massive conference was the perfect time to become allergic to my lash extensions i've been getting for 1.5 years ...


so i spent another few days with ice and tea bags on my eyeballs crying and having an identity crisis, which i'm not (mostly) over!


here's one of my fave quick n dirty practices that helps me see where to channel my energy when i feel like a mess!:

Wanderlust

i'm curating outfits for my conference in Texas, which will be my first of two trips in the next few weeks because i've officially booked my flight back to Canada for the summer!

so i'm focusing on this conference this week, then packing up my entire apartment, putting my belongings in storage, and going to good ol Ontario to visit friends and family while the weather is actually decent there!

Working On

i made what felt like a huge decision to not launch my Pep Talk Portal offer, because what i realized is ... it's actually the vibe i've been craving for my Self Love Experiment Membership

so0o there are some glow ups on the horizon, and all i know right now is that there will be voice notes, pep talks, and more of a chat style vibe vs emails!

so if you're feeling called to some self care + magic mindset support ... peep the membership while the price is still $11/month!
