What Gets Me Through The Work Week...

What Gets Me Through The Work Week...


Hey guys! I know I look ABSOLUTELY exhausted in the picture above but today I finally have a day off! If y'all haven't been reading my blog recently, I did go back to work & I expressed when I did my 5 Days of Meditation, Relaxation, & More! challenge that going back has been really hard physically & mentally. Update though! I'm still absolutely EXHAUSTED but my mind is a lot more at peace definitely because of doing the challenge & a few other things I'm about to explain! I hope y'all enjoy this post & if y'all have any tips on what gets you through the work week & keeps you mind at peace ALWAYS LET ME KNOW!

#1: Iced Coffee


2020 has turned me into an absolute coffee addict. I use to drink coffee before but now, I don't know what it is but if I don't have coffee in my day I will literally be a zombie. I tend to make iced coffee at my house but in the picture above I did grab some Chick Fil A Vanilla Coffee which lowkey guys, I highly recommend! It taste like a Smore lowkey HAHA! 

#2: Sweet Treats


If y'all were coming on this blog for a healthy diet, just leave now. I have such a sweet tooth!! Again, I will be talking about something from Chick Fil A which is their brownies. I give this brownie a 1000000/10. I highly recommend.

#3: Let Me Just Explain...


I've been wanting to do a whole entire post on what I'm about to explain to you because this has truly been life changing but then I decided I should just explain now in this post. So about a month ago, my sister suggested to me Ashwagandha. 

Ashwagandha is a medical herb that is used mostly to manage stress & let's face it, 2020 has had A LOT of stress. You can get them in pills or what I do is I buy the droppers that are in the pic above & what I do is that every night before I go to bed I make myself a glass of iced water & add about 2-3 drops of Ashwagandha. I then stir the drops into the water & drink one glass a night. 

At first, I was SO SCARED to know what it will taste like but it actually isn't too horrible. Honestly, the taste could be worse but it's manageable. 

I have noticed A HUGE difference in my everyday life from taking Ashwagandha & I feel this huge weight lifted off my shoulder. I feel so much more calm & I wouldn't say relaxed quite yet because no matter what, I'll always feel FREAKING EXHAUSTED but if you are going through a ton of stress from this year alone, I highly recommend Ashwagandha. You can get the pills or the droppers at your local grocery store & vitamin shops.

It doesn't only help manage stress but can also reduce blood sugar levels, reduce anxiety, reduce symptoms of depression, & the good news is, it's safe for most people but I would definitely do my research on it before getting it.

Personally for me with a heart condition, I can take it & feel fine but I know everyone reacts to things differently! If you end up trying it & loving it comment down below & let me know because truly during the work week, this has been a GAME CHANGER to not feeling so stressed out all of the time! Have a blessed day & stay safe!

Making Fall Fashion Cute in a Coastal City

Making Fall Fashion Cute in a Coastal City Hey guys! Today we will be doing a fashion themed post & today's theme is making fall fashion cute but if you live in a southern coastal city where it is still 90 degrees outside. I feel like there is not enough recognition for coastal falls, especially in fashion so today, we are going to get realistic about fall fashion while it is still 90 degrees outside. Neutrals Go with EVERYTHING! No matter if you are doing a tank top and shorts look or even a sweater with jeans (if you risk being sweaty after the fact), neutrals are a GO TO for every season but mostly for fall. Lean towards your black, white, & even like an oatmeal type of neutral colored clothing & focus on those when building your coastal fall wardrobe. Neutral Outfit Inspo from Pinterest Tube Tops with Light Cardigans Whether you are wearing the tube top with shorts or jeans, if you really want to channel that fall look or even if you are going somewhere indoors wher...

How 2025 Became My Best Year Yet & 26 Goals for 2026 Outfit Details: Top: Abercrombie & Fitch Shorts: Nordstrom Hey guys! I know I have been MIA from the blog for a while (most of the year actually) but I went MIA for very good reasons!  2025 has been full of blessings and amazing memories. As we start goal setting for 2026, I want to recap how 2025 became my best year yet and how going into 2026, I am feeling such a fresh mindset and this positive momentum we had in 2025 will in fact continue in 2026. I want to continue to be a positive force within not only myself but also for the people around me as well. 2025 became the year I have been longing for since I stepped into this crazy world of adulthood at 18 years old and that is, working full time in marketing/social media. Within the company I have worked for the past 2 1/2 years, this past June I switched departments from Membership/Recruitment to full on Marketing which if you have been following me for a while has been...
