Well…the countdown is on. Today I start me least week at my current job. I’m learning change is good, sometimes a little scary, but it’s necessary. Whether it’s a job, a relationship, a friendship. Learning to let go of what no longer grows me. And I threw in my amazing pumpkins because it’s Halloween!!! Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Monday. May your coffee be strong and your coworkers be in a good mood!!!

why the fuck cant everyone just get the fuck along?

I found myself spiralling way out of control trying to find a way to keep my family together. My parents and my Siblings!! I find myself in the position where I have a decent understanding of both sides. I’ve been a rebellious child and i am also a parent myself. And family, rather the idea of it, has been deep rooted in me like it almost feels like one of those essential organs without which, it means certain death. But I live countries away from the four of them and them being locked in there, thanks to the pandemic have resulted in every problem over the years resurfacing and exaggerating itself like a million folds. no one in the house can stand the other. There’s mom on one side, brother and sister on the other and then there’s dad trying to do what i do - keeping peace - and failing miserably. 

Mom with her signature defence mech. - “oh so all of you have a problem with me so i’ll leave” - LEAVE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC - abandoning as always. Sister with her “I’m not going to sit down and let her make me feel like shit all the time and I’m going to make her own up” - also none of them actually ever own up (biggest part of the problem). - also mom and sis (epicentre of the quake) are basically the same - wallowing in the past and constantly blaming and refusing to let go and move on. Brother with his “I’m all chill but just don’t make noise outside my door and let me be” which I guess is okay until he gets involved in and gets carried away too. And finally,  dad with the “yes we have shitty kids” + “yes your mum is nuts”

And all I want is for them to grow the fuck up, and stop wasting fucks on things that don’t matter and learn to stand and face each other and fix things and take responsibility for their own doings and learn to manage themselves better and treat each other with respect. To sum it up - I JUST WANT THEM TO GET THE FUCK ALONG.

But this has consumed me whole. I feel so at loss of peace because i find myself helpless trying to talk to them and persuade them and understand them and get to understand each other. I realised that talking to them is only making me worse but I feel like I’ll explode if i don’t let this all out somewhere. And thus this. writing this out and posting it randomly feels better.

At the end of this, I realised a few things - 

I cant control a bunch of adults like puppets and get them to stick it out and be a family because thats what I want.

I can still have the family but it doesn’t mean under the same roof and it could certainly mean tragedy.

I’ve learnt to accept things I can’t change, I’m trying to the best with the things that I can, and I hope I can differentiate better.

If there is one thing that is helping me stay sane, it would be a book - “The subtle art of not giving a fuck” - Mark Manson!! so Thank you Mark!!!

the two current ways to be in my world: no. 1 personalized 1:1 support through either lifestyle/energy coaching, network marketing via living water or your own individualized business coaching these are for my high ticket peeps who are ready to do all the work & get results quickly ~ these are for the people who are committed & dedicated when they invest in themselves no 2. audit services consist of four different categories including: • lifestyle & desire • manifesting • inner child • existing business energetic audit these are for spiritual creators or business owners that want to get their feet wet in my services i give my all no matter the pricing tier ~ so you’re essentially getting a mini 1:1 session with me via a strategic plan this offer is best for someone who is already seasoned in spirituality & manifesting but is feeling some resistance towards large investments, may feel like they want to do more healing alone but still wants insights, is working with multiple coaches or you may just be really good at implementing strategy once its shown to you which is really dope too ⚡️ with any questions feel free to reach out we are in this together 🌎 #oneononecoach #generationalhealingcoach #dnarewiring #dnarewiringsessions #emotionalintelligencecoach #understandingyourpsyche #psychicunderstanding #maintaininggrowth #massivelifeshifts #learningtogrow #innerchildhealing #coachingonetoone (at South Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjTiPVQp_Bp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Easier to run away than to deal with the reality of the situation.

Day one of sobriety

Day 1

Why I chose to start this journey. I think that alcohol takes away so much more than it brings.

It takes my time, my money, my job, my passion, my love for myself….

It increases my anxiety, depression, lack of love for myself, weight, debt….

It causes so much rift raft with me and Brian and it makes me feel disgusting.

I felt like I needed to tell someone what I was choosing to do...

I don’t think I'm an alcoholic I just don’t like who I become when I drink excessively and I think it is time to stop. 

I am going got be using this sort of like a diary. Ill post what I eat, exercise and do through out my day. They'll be good and bad days and this will be my venting post.

stay turned.

Why no. Nope, I didn't make my goal but I started. At the end of this lesson, life will learn that I'm independent regardless of what MS, Spondylosis, UC, kidney tumors and anything else take from me. #MSWarriors #LifeWithMS #allaboutyou #MindOverReality #GrowingToLearn #LearningToGrow #Improve #Alone #invisibleillness #depression

The Ever Changing Me Last couple of years plenty has changed. That’s what life does, it changes. We grow, and change. This was my kid’s assignment for school over the last few weeks. About how he has grown and changed over time. How he started from being a baby; not being able to talk, walk, feed himself to today where he’s fairly independent, and has emotions that he can express. He can express them better than most kids his age, I would say. I would say that because I’m his mom and most of his emotions are directed towards me. I would also say this because I'm his mom, and my child is smarter than yours. Always. The purpose of telling you about Dawud’s homework was that the line about “growing and changing” was straight up plagiarism from a very competent kindergarten teacher. Sorry Sir! Next time I will give you full credit with name, and credentials. Growing and changing has so so many different meanings to different people. To a 5 year old it simply means being able to grab things with one hand. Sounds simple and innocent. To me change and growth means being a 100 pounds lighter than 3 years ago. That kind of change is not just physical, it comes from the inside before it starts showing on the outside. I don't much care about what people get to look at on the outside. I know everyone cares a little, I'm sure I do too but I'm not worried about people’s opinions. When people’s opinion counted I didn't care about the weight. Of course, they wanted me to be prettier, who wants to look at something that's not aesthetically pleasing? I started losing the weight when I decided it was the right thing for me. My health. I wanted to take charge before it was too late. I am my best friend, my best ally, gotta watch my back, right? We weigh people’s worth by the pound. Every time I meet someone I haven’t seen in a while I realize how “different” I look. I’m forced to admit that I “feel” different too. Because, of course, weight loss comes with so many positive changes in one’s life.

So I have been thinking about going back to street photography for awhile instead of doing portraits. I’ve been in a photographers block for a bit and feel like I want to go back to the basics of where I feel comfortable. At least I can just grab my camera and snap when I want. I will still work on a few projects that I am excited about doing. I also will be working on some fun projects for @elanvitalmag so stay tuned to see what I have in store for that. I am hoping that by getting some of my older lens out that it will influence me to make a few different changes in my current style and help me grow a bit more. I am also working on building my website, so that I can get away from utilizing Facebook as it really gets annoying. There is inspiration in the world and I want to find the pieces that people forget that is there. #indiana #indianapolis #photo #photography #photoshoot #photoart #photographer #photooftheday #nikon #nikondf #nikonphotography #makingchanges #streetphotography #rawemotion #realphoto #realphotography #realphotos #backtobasics #learningtogrow #camera #film #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #manualcamera #manuallens #learntofocus #instagood #instgram #instadaily (at Avon, Indiana)

Achieving happiness and peace is a journey. A journey where you will get hit with obstacles and trials that will knock you down. But I’m slowly learning these are trials that are put in our lives to strengthen us and help us grow. What determines that is our attitude towards failure. If you use it as opportunity for growth you’ll learn to get back up, dust your knees and keep going. 🌻 #keepgoinglittleflower #happinessisajourney #learningtogrow #pineconeseverywhere #theymakemehappy #thesimplethingsinlife
